This is a documentation subpage for Template:WorldCat (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
THIS TEMPLATE IS UNDER DEVELOPMENT AND FEEDBACK IS BEING REVIEWED FROM A FEW KEY PEOPLE. IT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN A COMMUNITY MEETING, BUT THE TEMPLATE HAS NOT BEEN FINALIZED. CHANGES MADE TO IT OTHER THAN THE AUTHOR MAY BE LOST. PLEASE USE DISCUSSION PAGE FOR COMMENTS.
This is the {{WorldCat}} template. This template is used for formatting the text and links for WorldCat items generally used in source citations. Only one parameter is used and required, the WorldCat item number. When you search http://www.WorldCat.org/ for a title, you will find the OCLC number in details section of the edition. Alternatively, it may be shown in the URL immediately after the "oclc" text. Enter this number in the template as the first parameter.
An optional parameter disp can be specified, allowing the user to control the link text.
