Template:Cite OEIS/doc

This template creates a reference to the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences (OEIS). Parameter |1= is the identifying A-number, |2= (optional) is the name of the sequence:

• {{Cite OEIS|A100000|Ishango bone}} →

By default, this template generates a ref anchor which can be addressed using {{sfn|Sloane "sequence number"}} etc.

Before April 2018, this template was named {{SloanesRef}}.

Usage

The template requires the sequence number and optionally a name.

• {{Cite OEIS|A100000}} →

• {{Cite OEIS|A100000|Ishango bone}} →

When in doubt, or the template does not show as expected: add |1, 2= (required when the input contains an "=" sign):

• {{Cite OEIS|1=A100000|2=Ishango bone}} →

... or use the parameter names |sequencenumber=, |name=:

• {{Cite OEIS|sequencenumber=A100000|name=Ishango bone}} →

Other parameters

• |formalname= -- |name= might be shortened for convenience. |formalname= can then hold the longer, formal OEIS name for future use.
• |accessdate=

To overwrite "Sloane, N.J.A. (ed.).":

• |editor-link=
• |editor-first=
• |editor-last= (this also changes the default ref anchor accordingly: {{sfn|editor-last "sequence number"}})
• |ref= specifies an explicit ref anchor. Do not use cite web's default value of harv.
• |mode= specifies the generated citation format. Default is cs1, specify cs2 for citation-style.

OEIS subpages

The OEIS site can have several subpages with a sequence page. These can be linked using |subpage=. Options:

|subpage= (default)	→
|subpage=list	→
|subpage=graph	→
|subpage=refs	→
|subpage=history	→
|subpage=text	→
|subpage=internal	→
|subpage=listen	→
