Template:Cite compare2/doc
![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite compare2. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
{{cite compare2}}
is a documentation tool similar to {{cite compare}}
, but only used to display the live Module:Citation/CS1 Lua engine output, and optionally the Module:Citation/CS1/sandbox output. {{cite compare}}
forces the display of either the old or the sandbox versions.
{{cite compare2}}
also has the optional |header=
parameter, which adds text after the Cite <mode>
compare heading, for a more compact display.
Usage
{{cite compare2}}
is controlled by four parameters:
|mode=
– selects which of the CS1 templates will be compared; for{{cite web}}
,|mode=web
; for{{cite journal}}
,|mode=journal
; etc.|sandbox=
– when set toyes
(or any text), includes the citation as rendered by Module:Citation/CS1/sandbox|comment=
– when set to a comment, displays the comment at the bottom of the comparison table|header=
– analogous to|comment=
, but displays in bold after the Cite<mode>
compare heading text
Default display
The default display is simply the wiki markup text and the current live CS1 template.
