{{Documentation subpage}}
{{High-use}}
{{Lua|Module:Gutenberg}}

This template is for linking books or authors at Faded Page book archive for [[Distributed Proofreaders Canada]] (DPC).

== Usage ==
*Step 1: Find the '''author ID''' at the Faded Page website https://www.fadedpage.com
*a) From the main page under "Browse...Author", choose the letter corresponding to the author's last name. For example, for "Edgar Rice Burroughs", choose the letter "B"
*b) From the authors page for "B" find "Burroughs, Edgar Rice"
*c) Click on an individual book title to view a book page

*Step 2A: To link to the '''author''':
**Create the template like this:
:::<code><nowiki>{{FadedPage|id=Burroughs, Edgar Rice|name=Edgar Rice Burroughs|author=yes}}</nowiki></code>
::The <code>id</code> is the string used to construct the url
::The <code>name</code> is the author's name
::The <code>author</code> must be "author=yes" to denote an author type link rather than a book type link

*Step 2B: To link to a '''book''':
**Create the template like this:
:::<code><nowiki>{{FadedPage|id=20160704|name=Tarzan and the Lost Empire}}</nowiki></code>
::The <code>id</code> is the eight digit string used to construct the url
::The <code>name</code> is the title of the book

==Arguments==
:* '''id''': the id at FadedPage.com website. See "Usage" above for how to determine.
:* '''name''': The name of the author, or the title of the book. Can be anything doesn't have to match the Wikipedia page or the PGAU website.
:* '''author''': Set to "yes" ie. <code>author=yes</code> if ''name'' is an author's name. Don't use if name = book title.
::: For book links, code template as <code><nowiki>{{FadedPage|id=201410E7|name=Animal Farm}}</nowiki></code> will produce:
::::{{FadedPage|id=201410E7|name=Animal Farm}}
::: For authors, code like this <code><nowiki>{{FadedPage|id=Leacock, Stephen Butler|name=Stephen Leacock|author=yes}}</nowiki></code> will produce:
::::{{FadedPage|id=Leacock, Stephen Butler|name=Stephen Leacock|author=yes}}

==Notes==
* Faded Page links can be made to individual books or to author pages.
