== About this template**
Template:Citation/core can be thought of as an engine producing consistent output for Wikipedia's citations.  Templates such as Citation provide this core template with a list of parameters, which it uses to produce a formatted text (HTML) output, which contains embedded COinS metadata. This metadata allows many readers to find cited references more easily, or to extract their details to a reference manager.
The presence of a central template makes individual citation templates simpler to code and amend, and produces a consistent look throughout the encyclopaedia.

**Templates using this 'engine'**
Changes to this central template can affect the output of several 'upstream' templates. A list of templates using citation/core is provided below for testing purposes.
*Template:Citation
*Template:Cite arXiv
*Template:Cite book
*Template:Cite conference
*Template:Cite encyclopedia
*Template:Cite IETF
*Template:Cite journal
*Template:Cite mailing list
*Template:Cite manual
*Template:Cite news
*Template:Cite press release
*Template:Cite video
*Template:Cite web

**Parameter details**
Note that the examples below are common uses of each parameter, intended to help editors understand the functioning of this template.  In the most part, there is nothing wrong with passing different data to any of the parameters below if it produces the output that is desired.  The exception is in parameters which are associated with a COinS field.
*AccessDate date when the URL was accessed. Should not be wikilinked.- archive parameters (if used, must be used both of them together)

** ArchiveDate date when the item was archived. Should not be wikilinked.
*OriginalURL If an archived URL is provided elsewhere, the original URL should be specified here.

*ISSN International Standard Serial Number identifying the periodical.
*IncludedWorkTitle Specific title, to be displayed in quotation marks.  Contrast with Title, which is displayed in italics.  In some cases (e.g. Template:Cite web) it may be desirable to use IncludedWorkTitle for the title, and not use the Title parameter at all.
*IncludedWorkURL URL of the contribution or chapter, or other included work.
*Issue issue number of the periodical.
*language specifies the language in which the source is written, if not English.

*PS postscript terminating the citation. This is empty by default.
*Ref A reference name - if the citation is referred to using the Harvard referencing suite of templates.
*Sep specifies the punctuation mark used to separate fields. This usually defaults to a period, but may occasionally be a comma.  For technical reasons, the template will malfunction if a semicolon is passed as a separator.  To circumvent this, the calling template should encode semicolons:Replace the exclamation mark with a default separator, if one different to a period is desired.
*Series series of which this periodical is a part.
*Surname1 first author's surname or last name.
*Surname2, Surname3, ..., Surname9 up to eight additional authors’ surnames or last names. The ninth is not actually used, but causes et al. to be generated.
*Title Title, to be displayed in italics after IncludedWorkTitle.  Used, for example, when citing the title of a book; the chapter title would be passed to IncludedWorkTitle
*TitleType specific type of item cited. Example: PhD thesis. Appears in parentheses immediately after Title (or TransTitle).
*TransItalic Translated italicized title, in case the original title is in a foreign language. Can be used in conjunction with TransTitle, e.g. for book and chapter title, respectively.
