This template embeds [[COinS]] metadata in the HTML output, allowing [[reference management software]] to retrieve bibliographic metadata. {{crossref|See [[Wikipedia:COinS]].}} As a general rule, only one data item per parameter. Do not include explanatory or alternate text:
* use {{xt|{{para|date|27 September 2007}}}} not {{!xt|{{para|date|27 September 2007 (print version 25 September)}}}}

Use of templates within the citation template is discouraged because many of these templates will add extraneous HTML or CSS that will be included raw in the metadata. Also, HTML entities, for example <code>&amp;nbsp;</code>, <code>&amp;ndash;</code>, or <code>&amp;#160;</code>, should not be used in parameters that contribute to the metadata.  

==== COinS metadata is created for these parameters ====

Note: This table of metadata is displayed in the documentation of all Citation Style 1 templates. Not all of these parameters are supported by every CS1 template. Some of these parameters are mutually exclusive, some are aliases of another parameter, and some require other parameters to be present. A full list of this template's supported parameters, their aliases, and their dependencies is shown in the [[#Usage|Usage]] section near the top of this documentation page.
