This is a short tutorial page for editing this bibliography of individual languages of Vanuatu.
Tutorial
editPlease create a new section by adding, at the right alphabetical place, the (preferred) name of your language between == signs, as in
==Tamambo==
Then add a link to the WP entry if it exists,
Link to WP entry: [[Tamambo language]]
Bibliographical references
editThen add bibliographical references you know of (whether yours or others'). To save time, you may want to check if they are already present under your language's entry.
You can either just cut and paste them; or ideally use the WP bibliographical templates, as illustrated below.
- {{cite book |last=Jauncey |first=Dorothy G. |year=1997 |title=A Grammar of Tamambo, the Language of Western Malo, Vanuatu |others=Ph.D. dissertation, Australian National University, Canberra}}
- {{Citation|last=Jauncey |first=Dorothy G. |year=2002 |chapter=Tamambo |editor=[[John Lynch (linguist)|Lynch, J.]], [[Malcolm Ross|Ross, M.]] & [[Terry Crowley (linguist)|Crowley, T.]] |title=The Oceanic Languages |publisher=Curzon |publication-place=Richmond, Surrey |pages=608–625}}
- {{Cite journal |last=Riehl |first=Anastasia K. |last2=Jauncey |first2=Dorothy |year=2005 |title=Illustrations of the IPA: Tamambo |journal=Journal of the International Phonetic Association |volume=35 |issue=2 |pages=255–259 |doi=10.1017/S0025100305002197 |ref=harv }}
You may add comments, or footnotes.[1]
The result will show up as follows:
You can find empty templates on this page; here are some of them:
{{cite book |title= |last= |first= |authorlink= |coauthors= |year= |publisher= |location= |isbn= |page= |pages= |url= |accessdate=}}
{{cite journal |last1= |first1= |last2= |first2= |year= |title= |journal= |volume= |issue= |pages= |publisher= |doi= |url= |accessdate= }}
{{Citation |last= |first= |year= |title= |publisher= |publication-place= |page= |url= |accessdate= }}
The same templates can be used vertically if you want:
{{Citation | last = | first = | year = | title = | publisher = | publication-place = | page = | url = | accessdate = }} |
Links
editYou may add internet links relevant to your language, like this:
Dorothy Jauncey (2011) ''Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo''. http://paradisec.org.au/vandicts/Tamambolexicon/index-english/main.htm
which yields
Dorothy Jauncey (2011) Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo. http://paradisec.org.au/vandicts/Tamambolexicon/index-english/main.htm
- If you add simple square brackets around the link:
Dorothy Jauncey (2011) ''Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo''. [http://paradisec.org.au/vandicts/Tamambolexicon/index-english/main.htm]
you get:
Dorothy Jauncey (2011) Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo. [1]
- Or you can use this syntax
Dorothy Jauncey (2011) [http://paradisec.org.au/vandicts/Tamambolexicon/index-english/main.htm ''Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo''].
and you will get
Dorothy Jauncey (2011) Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo.
- Finally, you can use the full template:
*{{cite web | url = http://paradisec.org.au/vandicts/Tamambolexicon/index-english/main.htm | title = Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo | author = Dorothy Jauncey | date = 2011 | work = | publisher = | accessdate = }}
which yields:
Dorothy Jauncey (2011). "Dictionary of Tamambo, Malo".
All possibilities are fine by me. (but we may make a collective decision on the best format for our purposes)
