සැකිල්ල:Cite APOD/doc

Usage

This template aids in the creation and standardization of a citation to NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day (APOD).

The following 3 named parameters are required, which are then passed to {{Cite web}}. Please refer to {{Cite web}} for more detail on each parameter.

• |date= is the date the picture appeared on APOD. See {{Cite web}} for acceptable date formats.
• |title= refers to the title of the |date='s APOD image, which normally appears immediately below the image. Do not use |title=Astronomy Picture of the Day.
• |access-date= is the date when the |date='s APOD content was last verified.

The following parameters are also accepted, but are not required:

• |name-list-style=amp to separate the last author with an ampersand & instead of a semicolon ;.
• |quote= to quote relevant text from the APOD page.
• |df= to set the date format. See Template:Cite web/doc#Date for accepted values.

Empty horizontal template with all parameters: {{Cite APOD |date= |title= |access-date= |name-list-style= |quote= |df=}}

Empty vertical template with all parameters:

{{Cite APOD | date = | title = | access-date = | name-list-style = | quote = | df = }}

Examples
