Template:Cite SEP/doc

__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__

Purpose

This template adds a citation or an external link to an entry in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP) at plato.stanford.edu.

Examples and usage

Suppose you want to add an external link to the SEP's article on Paul Feyerabend. The location of this entry at the SEP is at feyerabend, the title of the entry is "Paul Feyerabend", the author is John Preston and the last update is June 1, 2009.
The code:

  • {{Cite SEP|url-id=feyerabend|title=Paul Feyerabend|first=John|last=Preston|date=June 1, 2009}}

produces the citation:

  • Preston, John (June 1, 2009). "Paul Feyerabend". In Zalta, Edward N. (ed.). Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (Summer 2009 ed.). ISSN 1095-5054. OCLC 429049174.

If none of the editor- parameters are specified, Edward N. Zalta is used as the default editor [1].

Click the link labeled "Author and Citation Info" or "How to cite this entry" and use the "last modified" date displayed after the list of archived versions. While this can be generated automatically from the edition, it is better to include it. Dates provided as "first published" and "substantive revision" should usually not be used, as minor revisions may have been published later. If the edition is provided and the date parameter is omitted, then a full publication date with month and day is shown. If you would prefer to display only a year, then also provide the year parameter manually and it will be shown instead.

Superfluous parameters for future-proofing

These parameters are for future-proofing, and do not need to be used as of 2017:

|editor-first=
|editor-last=
|editor-link=

These parameters will only be needed if a paper edition is produced and it is what is being cited; they are not yet needed as of 2017:

|volume=
|page=
|pages=
