===Titles and chapters=== * '''title''': The title of the cited source. Titles are displayed in italics, except for short works such as a {{txl|cite press release}} and cited articles in {{tlx|cite news}}, {{tlx|cite journal}}, {{tlx|cite magazine}}, {{tlx|cite web}}, {{tlx|cite conference}}, and {{tlx|cite podcast}}, where the title is shown in quotation marks. For templates like these that show the title in quotation marks, any double quotation marks inside the title should be [[MOS:QINQ|converted]] to single quotation marks. Use [[MOS:CT|title case]] unless the cited source covers a scientific, legal or other technical topic and sentence case is the predominant style in journals on that topic. Use either title case or sentence case consistently throughout the article. Do not omit a leading "The" from the title. Subtitles are typically separated from titles with ": " though " โ " is also used. [[MOS:TM|As with trademarks]], Wikipedia {{em|does not}} attempt to emulate any stylistic flourishes used by the cited source's publisher, such as ALL-CAPS, all-lower-case, {{smallcaps|Small Caps}}, etc.; use either standard title case or sentence case consistently. If the cited source is itself notable and has a Wikipedia article, the title can be wikilinked. Wikilinking the title will make it impossible to use the "url" parameter to link to an external copy of the cited source, so only do this when citing works that do not need to be externally linked. A link to the actual source is preferred to a link to a Wikipedia article about the source. * '''script-title''': Languages that do not use a Latin-based alphabet, Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, etc., should not be italicized and may also read [[right-to-left]] (RTL). To include titles in these languages, use '''script-title'''. Titles in '''script-title''' are wrapped in special HTML markup to isolate RTL script from adjacent left-to-right text. Part of that special markup is a language attribute that browsers can use to assist in the proper display of the script. Editors must add a prefix to the script that will identify the language. The prefix is one of the [[Help:Citation Style 1#|script-<param>= language codes|supported language codes]] followed by a colon: {{para|script-title|ar:<bdi>ุงูุนุฑุจูุฉ</bdi>}}. Unrecognized codes are ignored and will display in the rendered citation. * '''trans-title''': If the cited source is in a foreign language, an English translation of the title can be given here. This field will be displayed in square brackets after the title and will be linked to {{para|url}} if used. * '''chapter''': The title of the cited chapter from the source, written in full. Displayed in quotes before the title. For websites arranged in sections the "at" parameter serves a similar function: {{para|at|Featured News}} * '''script-chapter''': Languages that do not use a Latin-based alphabet, Arabic, Chinese, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, etc., may possibly read [[right-to-left]] (RTL). To include chapter titles in these languages, use '''script-chapter'''. Chapter titles in '''script-chapter''' are wrapped in special HTML markup to isolate RTL script from adjacent left-to-right text. Part of that special markup is a language attribute that browsers can use to assist in the proper display of the script. Editors must add a prefix to the script that will identify the language. The prefix is one of the [[Help:Citation Style 1#|script-<param>= language codes|supported language codes]] followed by a colon: {{para|script-chapter|ar:<bdi>ุงูุนุฑุจูุฉ</bdi>}}. Unrecognized codes are ignored and will display in the rendered citation. This field will be displayed following the transliterated title. * '''trans-chapter''': If the cited source is in a foreign language, an English translation of the cited chapter title can be given here. This field will be displayed in square brackets within the quotation marks that enclose the chapter field. Titles containing certain characters will both display and link incorrectly unless those characters are replaced or encoded like this: {| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;" |- !scope="col"| Character !scope="col"| Must be replaced with |- !scope="row"| newline | space |- !scope="row"| [ | &#91; |- !scope="row"| ] | &#93; |- !scope="row"| <nowiki>|</nowiki> | &#124; |} ====|script-<<var>param</var>>= language codes==== Language codes known to cs1|2 for languages that do not use a Latin script are: {{#invoke:Cs1 documentation support|script_lang_lister}}<!-- makes a language code: name list from the master list in [[Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration]] -->
