Below are examples of how to use templates to cite books, encyclopedias, journals, theses, papers, websites, comic strips, videos, and editorial comics. See also category:citation templates.

For full description of the template — click the template name
Required field(s) are indicated in bold
Copy and paste the text under "common usage" to use the template.
Following each example is the resulting article text.

The use of Citation templates is not required by WP:CITE and is neither encouraged nor discouraged by any other Wikipedia citation guidelines. They may be used at the discretion of individual editors, subject to agreement with the other editors on the article. Some editors find them helpful, while other editors find them annoying, particularly when used inline in the text. Because they are optional, editors should not change articles from one style to another without consensus.

Harvard citation examples ( Template:Harvard citation) Based on related Harvard citation template (automatically creates a one-directional link to the first matching Harvard reference on the same page): {{Harvard citation\|Turner\|1851\|pp=10–11}} (full cite format) {{Harv\|Smith\|1879\|p=289}} (short format) {{Harvtxt\|Turner\|1851}} asserts that ...
