Template:Cite news/doc

This template is used to cite sources in Wikipedia. It is intended specifically for news sources. For citing journals/magazines and websites, see Cite journal and Cite web, respectively.

Usage
All parameter names must be lower case.

Copy a blank version to use. Remember to use the "undefined" (pipe) character between each field. Please delete any unused fields to avoid clutter in the edit window.

Citations within a page should use consistent formats. However, there is no consensus about which format is best.
