Description

Template for linking to standardised Wikisource texts.

Usage

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|source=	the source text (must be defined, or the template will generate an error)
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|version=	version of the source text (needed for correct linking if Wikisource hosts more than one version of a text, for example, Bible translations)
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|book=	the book of the source text (optional, use if chapters or books are defined as subpages)
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|chapter=	the chapter of the book of the source text (chapter/anchor of the book)
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|verse=	the verse of the chapter of the book of the source text (verse of the book)
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|range=	specific verse range (optional range, will not link to these verses, will only display); use the character "–" (&ndash;).
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|nobook=	if defined, will not display a book name
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|showsource=	if defined, will display the title of the source text
