Documentation
This template creates a link to a comic for inline citations. It supports citing a single issue, a range of issues, or multiple different comics at once.
Single Issue Citation
This is the basic usage for citing a single comic book issue.
{{comics|starbuck|1}}will produce: (Comics: Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1){{comics|origins|5}}will produce: (Comics: Battlestar Galactica: Origins #5)
You can also link to just the main series page by omitting the issue number:
{{comics|vol3}}will produce: (Comics: Battlestar Galactica (Volume 3))
Issue Range Citation
To cite a range of issues from the same comic series, use three unnamed parameters in the format (Comics: series #start_issue — end_issue). This format does not link the comic title.
{{comics|starbuck|1|4}}will produce: (Comics: Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1 — 4)
Multiple Comic Citation
To cite issues from different comic series in one reference, use numbered parameters like comic1, issue1, comic2, issue2, etc. You can cite up to 5 different comics this way.
{{comics|comic1=starbuck|issue1=1|comic2=origins|issue2=5}}will produce: (Comics: Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1, Battlestar Galactica: Origins #5)
Other Parameters
- nolink=y: Prints the comic title without linking. Note: This currently only works for single issue citations using the first and second unnamed parameters.
- nocat=y: Prevents the template from adding a category to the page.
