This template is for linking to an ISFDB publication record.
Usage
Call this template with a publication's tag or record number and, optionally, the publication's name or any string to display for the link.
{{P|BKTG11707}}
gives this link: BKTG11707
Optionally, you can change the displayed link text.
{{P|BKTG11707|Sheepfarmer's Daughter}}
gives this link: Sheepfarmer's Daughter
Note that any string can be passed instead of a publication title, for example, {{P|BKTG11707|this publication}} displays as this publication.
The template parameters can also be referenced using the names id and name respectively with the only requirement being that if the named id parameter name is used then name must be used if the second parameter is used. These forms are valid
{{P|id=BKTG11707}}displays as BKTG11707.{{P|id=BKTG11707|name=Sheepfarmer's Daughter}}displays as Sheepfarmer's Daughter.{{P|BKTG11707|name=Sheepfarmer's Daughter}}displays as Sheepfarmer's Daughter.
This form is not allowed as name= must be used when id= is used:
{{P|id=BKTG11707|Sheepfarmer's Daughter}}
Note that while the examples on this page are using publication tags using a publication's ID or record number value is preferred as they are more stable. A publication record's tag value can be changed rendering links to that publication invalid while its record number can't be changed.
