 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite IETF/doctypes. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is a "subroutine" of {{Cite IETF}} used for conditionally generating a list of associated document identifiers.
It is invoked as:
- {{Cite IETF/doctypes
- | Id = <value of
|id=parameter> - | Sep = <value of
|separator=parameter> - | Std = <value of
|std=parameter> - | Bcp = <value of
|bcp=parameter> - | Fyi = <value of
|fyi=parameter> - | Rfc = <value of
|rfc=parameter> - | Draft = <value of
|draft=parameter> - | Ien = <value of
|ien=parameter> - | Rtr = <value of
|rtr=parameter> - | Idlink = create a wikilink using this as the target, can be used to create anchor links
- | Idlinktype = document type to be used as the target text for Idlink
- | Id = <value of
- }}
It uses the following algorithm:
- If the
|Id=parameter is given the template will simply display that value. If the|Idlink=parameter is also given, it will be used to create an anchor link. - If the
|Id=parameter is not given, for the|Std=,|Bcp=,|Fyi=,|Rfc=,|Draft=,|Ien=, and|Rtr=parameters given, the template will append the document identifiers STD ## BCP ## FYI ## RFC #### I-D xxxxxx IEN ### RTR ## in this order with the numbers or identifiers passed to these parameters. - If the
|Idlink=and|Idlinktype=parameters are given they will be used to create a wikilink for the document type specified by the|Idlinktype=parameter. - The value of
|Sep=is used to separate the document identifiers: BCP 4. RFC 2119 - No trailing separator is generated; this is added after being passed to {{Citation/core}} from {{Cite IETF}}.
- The document identifier and number is separated with a <nowiki /> tag to prevent MediaWiki:Rfcurl from automatically linking RFC ####.
This "subroutine" is designed for {{Cite IETF}} and makes assumptions that may not be valid elsewhere.
Examples:
- "
{{Cite IETF/doctypes |Sep = . |Bcp = 4 |Rfc = 2119}}" produces "BCP 4. RFC 2119". - "
{{Cite IETF/doctypes |Sep = . |Bcp = 4 |Rfc = 2119 |Idlink = #IETF_RFC_2119 |Idlinktype = rfc}}" produces "BCP 4. RFC 2119". - "
{{Cite IETF/doctypes |Sep = . |Bcp = 4 |Rfc = 2119 |Idlink = #IETF_BCP_4 |Idlinktype = bcp}}" produces "BCP 4. RFC 2119".
