Template:R:sa:Cappeller/documentation

Usage

This template may be used in "References" and "Further reading" sections, and on talk pages, to cite Carl Cappeller's A Sanskrit–English Dictionary: Based upon the St. Petersburg Lexicons (1891). It creates a link to an online version of the Dictionary at Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries, provided by the University of Cologne.

Parameters

The template takes the following optional parameters:

• |1= or |entry= – the entry in the work to be cited. If this parameter is omitted, the template uses the name of the Wiktionary entry.
• |2=, |page= or |pages= – mandatory: the page number(s) of the work cited.
  • Use |2= or |page= to specify a single page number. The link to the online version of the Dictionary will not work if this is omitted.
  • Use |pages= to specify a range of pages, separating the first and last page numbers of the range with an en dash like this: |pages=110–111. You must then also use |pageref= to specify the page number to be linked to, usually the page on which the entry begins.
• |3=, |column= or |columns= – the column number(s) of the work cited.
• |4= or |passage= – a passage quoted from the work.
• |nodot= – by default, the template adds a full stop (period) at the end of the citation. To suppress this punctuation, use |nodot=1 or |nodot=yes.

Examples

• Wikitext: {{R:Cappeller Sanskrit-English|column=1|page=571}} (assuming it is used at संस्कृत (saṃskṛta)) or {{R:Cappeller Sanskrit-English|entry=संस्कृत|page=571|column=1}}
• Result: “संस्कृत” in Carl Cappeller, A Sanskrit–English Dictionary: Based upon the St. Petersburg Lexicons, Strasbourg: Karl J. Trübner, 1891, →OCLC, page 571, column 1.
