The '''Citation''' template is a versatile template for citing books, periodicals, contributions in collective works, patents, and web-sites. Its goal is to be an all-purpose citation template. It also has functionality to aid the use of the [[Harvard referencing]] style. The template allows author-date ("Harvard") citations in the main body of text to link to a full citation (generated by this template) in a "References" section at the end of the article via the [[:Template:Harvard citation]] template. This template creates an [[HTML]] anchor to which the [[:Template:Harvard citation|Harvard citation]] and related templates can link.

The template knows whether you are citing a book, periodical, or a chapter in a compilation, depending on which combination of parameters you use. For use with author-date systems such as the [[:Template:Harvard citation|Harvard citation]] template, use of '''last''' and '''date''' parameters should be considered mandatory, where possible.

Where the publisher is a university and the place or location is included in the name of the university, do not use this parameter.
* '''publisher''': The name of the publisher. Omit terms such as ''Publishers'', ''Co.'', ''Inc.'', ''Ltd.'', etc., but retain the words ''Books'' or ''Press''.
