Template:Mss

Manuscript, n.d.

Usage

4 variables

  • variable 1: first 2 numbers of a four-digit year. This will place the work page in the category of "Manuscripts from the ##00s."
  • variable 2: second 2 numbers of a four-digit year. Default value = 00.
  • variable 3: used to set a date range. Can input 2 or 4 numbers but if the date range extends into the next century the score will only be placed in the category for the century established with variable 1.
  • variable 4: this text will replace the "ca." found in the template's output when a value is input into variable 1.

NOTE: inputting no variables will result in the template placing the work page in the category of "Manuscripts from the 00s" which should be avoided.
