Template:Citation Style documentation/display
- author-mask: Replaces the name of the first author with em dashes or text. Set author-mask to a numeric value n to set the dash n em spaces wide; set author-mask to a text value to display the text without a trailing author separator; for example, "with". You must still include the values for all authors for metadata purposes. Primarily intended for use with bibliography styles where multiple works by a single author are listed sequentially. Do not use in a list generated by
{{reflist}}
, <references></references>
or similar as there is no control of the order in which references are displayed.
- author-name-separator: Changes the separator between last and first names; defaults to a comma and space (
,
); if the parameter is present, but blank, no separator punctuation will be used; a space must be encoded as  
do not use an asterisk (*
), colon (:
) or hash (#
) as they will be interpreted as wikimarkup.
- author-separator: Changes the separator between authors; defaults to a semicolon and space (
;
); if the parameter is present, but blank, no separator punctuation will be used; a space must be encoded as  
do not use an asterisk (*
), colon (:
) or hash (#
) as they will be interpreted as wikimarkup.
- display-authors: By default, the number of authors displayed is limited to 8; if 9 are provided, the ninth is displayed as "et al." This parameter allows display of fewer authors before the "et al."; for example, use
|display-authors=2
for only two authors. The "et al." may be suppressed altogether by setting |display-authors=9
. Aliases: displayauthors.
- lastauthoramp: When set to any value, changes the separator between the last two names of the author list to space ampersand space (
&
).
- postscript: The closing punctuation for the citation; defaults to a period (
.
); if the parameter is present, but blank, no terminating punctuation will be used. Ignored if quote is defined.
- separator: The punctuation used to separate lists of authors, editors, etc. Defaults to a period (
.
); if the parameter is present, but blank, no separator punctuation will be used; a space must be encoded as  
do not use an asterisk (*
), colon (:
) or hash (#
) as they will be interpreted as wikimarkup.
