{{Documentation subpage}} <!-- Categories go where indicated at the bottom of this page, please; interwikis go to Wikidata (see also: [[Wikipedia:Wikidata]]). --> {{for2|the{{nbsp}} {{fake citation needed}} template|{{tl|citation needed}}}} {{#ifeq: {{PAGENAME}}|{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|{{Cascade-protected template}}}} {{#ifeq: {{PAGENAME}}|{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|{{High-risk|189000+}}}} {{csdoc|lua|lua=yes}} The '''Citation''' template generates a citation for a book, periodical, contribution in a collective work, or a web page. It determines the citation type by examining which parameters are used. As with other citation templates, this template can be used either in a footnote (between {{tag|ref}} tags) or in a section that lists sources. This template uses the same [[WP:Lua|Lua]] code as [[help:Citation Style 1|citation style 1 (CS1)]] templates with parameters to change the displayed format to [[help:Citation Style 2|citation style 2 (CS2)]]. If the correct parameters are used, this template produces output identical to that of the Cite templates, such as {{Tl|Cite book}} and {{Tl|Cite web}}, with one important exception: By default, this Citation template uses commas in places where the Cite templates use periods (full stops) by default; either type of template can use periods (full stops) or commas by using an optional parameter. Regardless of which citation templates are used or even if none are used at all, all citations should have the same format throughout an article in the saved, rendered text. Note: All parameter names must be [[lowercase]].
