This template is used for links or references to https://mathworld.wolfram.com/

== Usage ==

<pre>{{MathWorld |id= |title= |author= |access-date= |ref= }}</pre>

where all parameters must be in [[title case]].

== Params ==

# {{Para|id}} - e.g.: GammaFunction
# {{Para|title}} - e.g.: Gamma Function; defaults to page name
# {{Para|author}} (optional) e.g.: John Doe (default is ''Eric Wolfgang Weisstein'')
# {{Para|access-date}} - for use in citations
# {{para|ref}} - to mark a reference anchor name to match {{tl|sfn}}-style references
# {{para|mode}} - "cs1" (the default) or "cs2" for [[Help:Citation Style 1|Citation Style 1]] or [[Help:Citation Style 2|Citation Style 2]]

== HTML anchor ==
The template uses a [[HTML]] anchor of #Reference-Mathworld-(article name). Thus, to reference a MathWorld article entitled "Gigantic Prime" using [[Parenthetical referencing|Harvard style references]], use <nowiki>([[#Reference-Mathworld-Gigantic Prime|Weisstein]])</nowiki> which will display as: ([[#Reference-Mathworld-Gigantic Prime|Weisstein]]). When clicked, the link is to the reference in the following example.

== Example ==
===MathWorld===
*Code: <code><nowiki>{{MathWorld |title=Gigantic Prime |id=GiganticPrime |access-date={{subst:TODAY}}}}</nowiki></code>

:Output: {{MathWorld |title=Gigantic Prime |id=GiganticPrime |access-date={{TODAY}}}}

===MathWorld2===
Compare with:
*Code:<code><nowiki>{{MathWorld2 |title=Gigantic Prime |id=GiganticPrime |access-date={{subst:TODAY}}}}</nowiki></code>

:Output: {{MathWorld2 |title=Gigantic Prime |id=GiganticPrime |access-date=22 May 2020}}
