This template embeds COinS metadata in the HTML output, allowing reference management software to retrieve bibliographic metadata; see Wikipedia:COinS.

  • As a general rule, only one data item per parameter
  • Do not include explanatory or alternate text: Template:Xt not Template:Para
  • 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.
