== Usage ==
This template is used to add an [[ORCID]] link after mention of an author/researcher.  '''Do not''' use this template in the external links section of the article about the person identified by the ORCID; instead use {{tl|Authority control}}. The latter template may also be [[Wikipedia:ORCID/About you|placed on user pages]].

===Paramaeter===
There is one parameter, the ORCID author ID number, which takes a value in the form {{var|####-####-####-####}}; it is used to compose the URL to the ORCID database entry: <code>ht<nowiki />tp://orcid.org/{{var|####-####-####-####}}</code>

===Examples===

<code>As noted in <nowiki>''The Aliens in Our Spleens''</nowiki> (2014) by U. Gunnar Freakus-Aute (</code>{{tlx|ORCID|1234-5678-9012-3456}}<code>) ...</code>

results in a display that looks like:

As noted in ''The Aliens in Our Spleens'' (2014) by U. Gunnar Freakus-Aute ({{ORCID|1234-5678-9012-3456}}) ...
