* <span id="csdoc_author" />'''last''': Surname of author. Do not wikilink—use '''author-link''' instead. For corporate authors, simply use '''last''' to include the same format as the source. Aliases: '''last1''', '''author''', '''author1'''{{#if:{{{aliases|}}}|, {{{aliases}}}}}.
** '''first''': Given or first names of author, including title(s); for example: ''Firstname Middlename'' or ''Firstname M.'' or ''Dr. Firstname M., Sr.'' Do not wikilink—use '''author-link''' instead. Aliases: '''first1'''. Requires '''last'''; first name will not display if '''last''' is empty.
** OR: for multiple authors, use '''last1''', '''first1''' through '''last<var>n</var>''', '''first<var>n</var>''' where ''n'' is any consecutive number for an unlimited number of authors (each '''first<var>n</var>''' requires a corresponding '''last<var>n</var>'''). See the [[Template:csdoc_display|csdoc#display]] parameters to change how many authors are displayed. Aliases: '''author1''' through '''author<var>n</var>'''.
