Template:Authorid

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

Given appropriate identifiers, generates super-scripted characters that link to an author's record in various databases. Link to the ORCID, ResearcherID, Scopus, VIAF, Google Scholar, and Wikidata databases using (respectively) the 'o', 'r', 's', 'v', 'g', and 'd' named parameters. Example:

• [[Josiah Carberry]]{{Authorid|o= 0000-0002-0036-9460|s= 7007156898}} generates: Josiah Carberry.

Will generate a wiki-linked asterisk (use in place of |author-link=) using an unnamed parameter:

• Josiah Carberry{{Authorid|Josiah Carberry|d=Q24090725}} generates: Josiah Carberry.

Parameter (and link letter):	Links to:	Sample identifier:
o	ORCID	0000-0002-0036-9460
r	ResearcherID	I-6013-2012
s	Scopus	7007156898
v	VIAF	75121530
g	Google Scholar	qc6CJjYAAAAj
d	Wikidata item	Q24090725
*	Wiki-link	Josiah Carberry

Intended for use with citation templates, and designed to be minimally intrusive. E.g.:

• Carberry, Josiah; Bourbaki, Nicolas (2004), Mythical Maths {{citation}}: External link in |first1= and |first2= (help).

But currently must be appended to the |firstN= or |authorN= parameter, which will break |author-link=.

Authorid will write the name of the subject author if supplied in the |a= parameter:

Possible use is following a citation template to provide various author id links.
