Template:Citation error/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Citation error (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage[edit]

This template produces an error message to be displayed in citation templates, and categorizes the citation as broken.

This template uses two un-named parameters:

The first is the message
The second is optional and is the template name; it will automatically be wikilinked

The {{para}} template can be used to show parameters.

Only main, help and template pages will show this message; these pages will be placed into Category:Articles with broken citations.

Example[edit]

{{Citation error|no <code>|title=</code> specified|Cite web}}

Error: no |title= specified when using {{Cite web}}
