Template:Cite OEIS/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite OEIS.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is a Citation Style 1 wrapper template based on {{Cite web}}. For centralised Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1.

This template uses Lua:

Module:Check for unknown parameters (sandbox)

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}} →

Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A100000 (Ishango bone)". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.

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}} →

Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A100000". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.

{{Cite OEIS|A100000|Ishango bone}} →

Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A100000 (Ishango bone)". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.

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}} →

Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A100000 (Ishango bone)". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.

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

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

Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A100000 (Ishango bone)". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.

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)	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=list`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: list". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=graph`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: graph". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=refs`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: references". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=history`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: history". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=text`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: text". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=internal`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: internal format". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
`\|subpage=listen`	→ Sloane, N. J. A. (ed.). "Sequence A046970: into music (midi audio)". The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences. OEIS Foundation.
