Documentation for the template: Cover Image Data-PD Old (transcluded from Template:Cover Image Data-PD Old/Doc)
Purpose
This template is to be placed on the image description page of a book, magazine, or other publication cover image that is in the public domain because it was published before 1923.
Usage
Call this template as:
{{Cover Image Data-PD Old
|Title=<publication title>
|Edition=<date and/or publisher>
|Pub=<publication record number or tag>
|Publisher=<Name of publisher>
|Artist=<name of cover artist>
|Year=<Year of publication>
|Source=<origin of image>
|Side=<back or front>
}}
All parameter names have an inital capitol letter. Case is significant in a parameter name. The order of the parameters is not significant, but the order above is suggested, as it is the order of use within the template.
