Template:Citation Style documentation/display: Difference between revisions

* <span id="csdoc_display-authors" /><span id="csdoc_displayauthors" />'''display-authors''': Controls 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. {{para|display-authors|etal}} displays all authors in the list followed by et al. Aliases: '''displayauthors'''.

* <span id="csdoc_display-editors" /><span id="csdoc_displayeditors" />'''display-editors''': Controls the number of editor names that are displayed when a citation is published. To change the displayed number of editors, set '''display-editors''' to the desired number. For example, {{para|display-editors|2}} will display only the first two editors in a citation. By default, all editors are displayed except when there are four editors, then the editor list in the citation is truncated to three editors, followed by "et al." This exception mimics the older version of the template for compatibility. If a citation contains four editor names and one wishes all four editor names to display, "et al." may be suppressed by setting {{para|display-editors|4}}. {{para|display-editors|etal}} displays all editors in the list followed by et al. Aliases: '''displayeditors'''.

* <span id="csdoc_postscript" />'''postscript''': Controls the closing punctuation for a citation; defaults to {{#if: {{{cs2|}}}|none|a period (<code>.</code>); for no terminating punctuation, specify {{para|postscript|none}} – leaving {{para|postscript}} empty is the same as omitting it, but is ambiguous}}. Ignored if '''quote''' is defined.
