Talk:GLAM/Model projects/Adding a Wikipedia citation template to your database
< Talk:GLAM | Model projects
Early questions for project development[edit]
- If template is used with exhibits, what happens when the exhibit is closed/renovated?
- Are there any good examples of WP / WM articles where cites have been used effectively and draw attention to info from museums?
- Does it have to be a standard template that just needs a couple of parameters changing each time? (in the example one template is provided, just for a database, so only the title and URL changes each time)
- Which template format is best? Presumably, the editor who ends up using the cite will adjust the date format?
- If the templates are going to be added to an online database / catalogue, is there a way of doing the coding so that when the user clicks to copy the template it automatically completes the "retrieved" date? Too complicated?
