Module:Cite

From The Codex

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Dev:Docbunto' not found.


--- Generates citations across the wiki to ensure standard formatting.
--  The module accepts several different types of citations and processes each
--  differently, based on the <code>f</code> table's functions. When the module
--  is called without a type, it acts as a citation needed template.
--  @module             cite
--  @alias              p
--  @require            Dev:Date
--  @require            Dev:User error
--  @require            Dev:Yesno
--  @require            Module:Tags

--  Private logic.

--- Wrapper for <code>userError</code> that places the page under the Pages with
--  user errors category.
--  @function           err
--  @param              {string} text Text to display as an error
--  @return             {string} Wikitext with the error and category
--  @local
local function err(text)
    return userError(text, 'Pages with user errors')

--- Checks whether a given date string is a valid date.
--  @function           valid_date
--  @param              {string} d Date string to check

    end)

--- Table of possible citation types and the way they are processed.
--  Each type has a function associated with it that gets passed the arguments
--  after the type, does validation of these arguments and returns the whole
--  citation text.
