Documentation for the template: Miscellaneous Publication Content (transcluded from Template:Miscellaneous Publication Content/Doc).

Purpose

This template is to be placed on the image description page for a Miscellaneous Publication Content image used to document a portion of a publication under fair use. Please note that specific fair use templates are available to document a publication's cover or any illustrations, logos, and signatures that may be found in a publication. This template would be used with other material that does not fall into those categories.

Usage

Call this template as:

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content
|Pub=<TAG>
}}

or as:

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content
|Id=<TAG>
}}

or as:

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content|<TAG>}}

or as:

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content|<TAG>|<publication title>}}

or as:

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content
|Pub=<TAG>
|Title=<publication title>
}}

Note: In all the above examples, when a parameter is shown in angle brackets, like:

<Parameter>

then the parameter, and the angle brackets, should be replaced by the value of the parameter. For example: Title=<TITLE> should become Title=The Name of the Book (or whatever the name might be).

When using an unnamed (positional) parameter, it should NOT be the last thing on the line. It should be followed by either a pipe symbol (|) if there is another parameter to follow, or by the template call close (}}) if there is not. Otherwise the parameter value will be passed as including the carriage return at the end of the line, which will probably cause the template to function incorrectly.

Parameters

  • Pub must specify a publication record tag or record number, an acceptable argument to Template:P (which see). If the "Pub=" parameter is not present, the first unnamed parameter is used. One or the other must be present and valid for the template to work correctly
  • Title is used to specify the title of the publication, for display. If an unnamed parameter is used for Pub, a 2nd unnamed parameter may be used for title.

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content
|Pub=<TAG>
}}

or as:

{{Miscellaneous Publication Content|<TAG>}}
