This template embeds [[COinS]] metadata in the HTML output, allowing [[reference management software]] to retrieve bibliographic metadata;. seeSee: [[Wikipedia:COinS]].
*As a general rule, only one data item per parameter
*Do not include explanatory or alternate text: {{xt|{{para|date|27 September 2007}}}} not {{!xt|{{para|date|27 September 2007 (print version 25 September)}}}}
** Use {{xt|{{para|date|27 September 2007}}}} not {{!xt|{{para|date|27 September 2007 (print version 25 September)}}}}
*Be careful using templates within the citation template, as many will add a lot of extraneous HTML or CSS that will be rendered in the meta-data.
**Known templates that should not be used: {{tl|smallcaps}}, and {{tl|lang}}.
