• One of the two date format parameters:
  • accessdate: Full date when item was accessed, in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. 2006-02-17. Must not be wikilinked.
  • accessmonthday and accessyear: Month and day when item was accessed, e.g. May 10, and year when item was accessed, e.g. 2005. Will not be wikilinked.

Optional parameters

• author: Author
  • last works with first to produce last, first
  • authorlink works either with author or with last & first to link to the appropriate article on Battlestar Wiki.
  • authorlinkurl If the author's link is not on the Battlestar Wiki input the full address here.
  • coauthors: allows additional authors in last, first format.
• date: Full date of publication, preferably in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. 2006-02-17.
  • OR: year: Year of publication, and month: Name of the month of publication. If you also have the day, use date instead. Must not be wikilinked.

• work: If this item is part of a larger work, name of that work.
• publisher: Publisher, if any.

• language: language of publication
• archive: Place Y in order to enable. Enabling this prefixes the current link (in the url parameter) with http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/, if the original link died.
  • This overrides archiveurl and archivedate, and thus enabling these parameters is not required.
• archiveurl: URL of the archive location of the item (requires archivedate)
  • Usually found on http://www.archive.org
• archivedate: Date when the item was archived (requires archiveurl), in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. 2006-02-17.
