Template:Citation Style documentation/coins

This template embeds COinS metadata in the HTML output, allowing reference management software to retrieve bibliographic metadata. See: COinS. As a general rule, only one data item per parameter. Do not include explanatory or alternate text:
 * Use 27 September 2007 not 27 September 2007 (print version 25 September)

Use of templates within the citation template, is generally discouraged as many of these templates will add a lot of extraneous HTML or CSS that will be rendered in the metadata.

COinS metadata is created for these parameters:
 * periodical, journal, newspaper, magazine, work, website, encyclopedia, encyclopaedia, dictionary
 * chapter, contribution, entry, article, section
 * title
 * publicationplace, publication-place
 * date, year, publicationdate, publication-date
 * series
 * volume
 * issue, number
 * page, pages, at
 * edition
 * publisher, distributor, institution
 * url
 * chapterurl, chapter-url, contributionurl, contribution-url, sectionurl
 * author#, Author#, authors#, author#-last, author-last#, last#, surname#
 * any of the identifiers (isbn, issn, doi, pmc, etc)
