=== Purpose ===
This template facilitates the attribution of articles from editions of ''[[Encyclopedia Americana]]'' that are in the [[public domain]] using the template {{tlx|Cite Americana}} which in turn calls {{tlx|Cite encyclopedia}}.

=== Usage ===
<code><nowiki>{{Americana|wstitle=''name of the Americana article here''}}</nowiki></code>

or with a specification of additional options:
<pre><nowiki>{{</nowiki>Americana</pre>
 |noicon=''1'' — suppress the leading icon
 |inline=''1'' — changes the prescript and should be used when this template is used as an inline citation
 |short=''1''  — suppresses some of the fields such as editor's name
 |ref=''harv'' — can be overridden (if you need to ask you do not need to change it)
 |wstitle=''Americana article'' — if the article is available on Wikisource 
 |display=''alternative name'' — displayed inplace of the wstitle name
 |title=''Americana article'' — if the article is not available on Wikisource
 |url=  — will not be set unless the parameter ''title='' is set

 If not set, set in the template Cite Americana to default values
 |encyclopedia= — "''Encyclopedia Americana''"
 |editor-first= — defaults to "''George Edwin''"
 |editor-last=  — defaults to "''Rines''"
 |{encyclopedia= 
 |year — defaults to 1920

 If set pass in other standard parameters:
 |first=
 |first1=
 |first2=
 |last=
 |last1=
 |last2=
 |author=
 |author1=
 |author2=
 |authors=
 |authorlink=
 |coauthors=
 |volume=
 |page=
 |pages=
 |separator=
 |postscript=
<pre>}}</pre>

=== Examples ===
====Simple====
<code><nowiki>{{Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon}}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon}}

====With comment====
<code><nowiki>{{Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon}} A French history and portrait painter with many famous students.</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon}} A French history and portrait painter with many famous students.

====Using <code>author</code>====
<code><nowiki>{{Americana|author=[[Wilbur L. Cross]] |wstitle=David Copperfield}}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana|author=[[Wilbur L. Cross]] |wstitle=David Copperfield}}

====Using <code>volume</code>, <code>pages</code>, <code>page</code>====
These work as with other {{tl|cite}} templates:

<code><nowiki>{{Americana |title=Pulte, Joseph Hippolyt |volume=22 |page=799 }}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana |title=Pulte, Joseph Hippolyt |volume=22 |page=799 }}

====Using <code>display</code>====
The mechanics of Wikisource will sometimes require that a link have disambiguation information which is not part of the original title.  The <code>display</code> parameter allows this information to be hidden for the purpose of the citation.  For example:

<code><nowiki>{{Americana|wstitle=Monroe (Louisiana) |display=Monroe, La.}}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana|wstitle=Monroe (Louisiana) |display=Monroe, La.}}

====Using <code>noicon</code>====
<code><nowiki>{{Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon|noicon=x}}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana|wstitle=Cogniet, Leon|noicon=x}}

====Using <code>title</code> (no Wikisource link)====
<code><nowiki>{{Americana |title=Sterne, Simon}}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana |title=Sterne, Simon}}

When <code>title</code> is being used, <code>url</code> can be used to specify an external link.  For example:

<pre><nowiki>
{{Americana
 |title=Sterne, Simon
 |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=cr9PAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA632
}} At [[Google Books]].
</nowiki></pre>

displays as:

{{Americana
 |title=Sterne, Simon
 |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=cr9PAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA632
}} At [[Google Books]].

====Using <code>short</code>====
If a shorter citation is desired, containing the editor of the 1920 edition, the <code>long</code> option can be used.  For example:

<code><nowiki>{{Americana|wstitle=Schlatter, Michael|short=x}}</nowiki></code>

displays as:

{{Americana|wstitle=Schlatter, Michael|short=x}}

If another edition besides 1920 is being used, the editor name can be customized using <code>editor-first</code> and <code>editor-last</code>. If used, these two items will be displayed whether or not the <code>long</code> option is specified.

=== Hidden categories ===
This template places articles into a hidden category with sub-categories to aid maintenance:
*[[:Category:Wikipedia articles incorporating text from Encyclopedia Americana]]

=== See also ===
* {{tl|Cite Americana}} &mdash; Use for citations where the  Americana text summarised but not copied 
* {{tl|Americana Poster}} &mdash; Place in the external links area for topic relevant Americana articles that may be of interest but are not cited by Wikipedia.
