From Timelines
- <span id="csdoc_display" /><span id="csdoc_author-mask" />author-mask: Replaces the name of the first author with em dashes or text. Set author-mask to a numeric value n to set the dash n em spaces wide; set author-mask to a text value to display the text without a trailing author separator; for example, "with". You must still include the values for all authors for metadata purposes. Primarily intended for use with bibliographies or bibliography styles where multiple works by a single author are listed sequentially such as Shortened footnotes. Do not use in a list generated by
{{reflist}},<references />or similar as there is no control of the order in which references are displayed. - <span id="csdoc_author-name-separator" />author-name-separator: Controls the separator between last and first names; defaults to a comma and space (
,); if the parameter is present, but blank, no separator punctuation will be used; a space must be encoded as do not use an asterisk (*), colon (:) or hash (#) as they will be interpreted as wikimarkup. - <span id="csdoc_author-separator" />author-separator: Controls the separator between authors; defaults to a semicolon and space (
;); if the parameter is present, but blank, no separator punctuation will be used; a space must be encoded as do not use an asterisk (*), colon (:) or hash (#) as they will be interpreted as wikimarkup. - <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 control the displayed number of author names, set display-authors to the desired number. For example,
|display-authors=2will display only the first two authors in a citation. By default, the only the first eight cited authors are displayed; subsequent authors beyond eight are represented in the published citation by "et al." If a citation contains nine author names and one wishes all nine author names to display, "et al." may be suppressed by setting|display-authors=9. Aliases: displayauthors.
- <span id="csdoc_lastauthoramp" />lastauthoramp: Switches the separator between the last two names of the author list to space ampersand space (
&) when set to any value. Example:|lastauthoramp=yes - <span id="csdoc_postscript" />postscript: Controls the closing punctuation for a citation; defaults to a period (
.); if the parameter is present, but blank, no terminating punctuation will be used. Ignored if quote is defined. - <span id="csdoc_separator" />separator: Controls the punctuation used to separate lists of authors, editors, etc. Defaults to a period (
.); if the parameter is present, but blank, no separator punctuation will be used; a space must be encoded as do not use an asterisk (*), colon (:) or hash (#) as they will be interpreted as wikimarkup.
