This is a citation template for citing entries from ''[[The Times]]'' newspaper, a [[newspaper of record]] of the United Kingdom. The format follows the format used in '''''The Times'' Index'''. ''The Times'' Index goes back to 1785 and the other newspaper templates such as [[Template:Cite news|Cite news]] do not convey the same information.

==Usage==
'''Short horizontal format'''
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{Cite newspaper The Times |url= |title= |date= |page= |issue= |column= }}</syntaxhighlight>
'''Full horizontal format'''
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{Cite newspaper The Times |url= |title= |author= |department= |date= |page= |pages= |issue= |column= }}</syntaxhighlight>

'''Vertical format'''
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{Cite newspaper The Times
|title=
|author=
|department=
|date=
|page=
|pages=
|issue=
|column=
|url=
}}</syntaxhighlight>

==Example usage==

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext>{{Cite newspaper The Times
|title=The spelling of Kenya
|author=J. H. Reynolds
|department=Letters to the editor
|date=8 February 1932
|page=8
|issue=46051
|column=B
}}</syntaxhighlight>

produces:

{{Cite newspaper The Times
|title=The spelling of Kenya
|author=J. H. Reynolds
|department=Letters to the editor
|date=8 February 1932
|page=8
|issue=46051
|column=B
}}
