Template:Citation Style documentation/display: Difference between revisions

* <span id="csdoc_display-authors" /><span id="csdoc_displayauthors" />'''display-authors''': {{#if: {{{lua|}}}|This parameter allows one to control the number of author names that are displayed when a citation is published. To change the displayed number of authors, set '''display-authors''' to the desired number. For example, {{para|display-authors|2}} will display only the first two authors in a citation. By default, all authors are displayed except when there are nine authors, then the author list in the citation is truncated to eight authors, followed by "et al." This exception mimics the older version of the template for compatibility. If a citation contains nine author names and one wishes all nine author names to display, "et al." may be suppressed by setting {{para|display-authors|9}}.
