Cir. 2007) ("As such, we hold it unconstitutional.").
Description of fields[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]
All fields are optional!
- litigants
- The title of the case, such as "Miranda v. Arizona". If a Wikipedia article using this exact string exists, a link will automatically be created. Alternately, if an article exists but another name is desired for display, a wikilink may be specified; i.e., "[[Case article|This v. That]]". Note: This presently cannot be specified as title, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- reporter
- The abbreviated term for whatever reporter is being referenced; i.e., "U.S." for the U.S. Supreme Court's "United States Reports". Important: "reporter" in this context means an official law publication, not a journalist. This presently cannot be specified as work, which is inconsistent with other citation templates. Do not wikilink.
- vol
- Volume of the reporter. Only used for US case citations (and those given in the same format); otherwise, just include the information as part of reporter in the format given by the source. This presently cannot be specified as volume, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- opinion
- The opinion number, often the number of the first page of the case. Only used for US case citations (and those given in the same format); otherwise, just include the information as part of reporter in the format given by the source.
- pinpoint
- Identifies a specific part of a decision, typically by page or paragraph number. This presently cannot be specified as at, page, or pages, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- court
- The name or (optionally) standard abbreviation for the court being cited (e.g. "3d Cir." or "M.D. Ala." or "Allahabad High Court, India"). If the abbreviated form would be a red link, use the long one (even if it is also a red link for now). See here for a list of courts in the United States. In order for court to appear, date must also be specified. Note: This parameter also should likely not be optional.
- date
- The year or full date in which the court rendered its decision. Note: This parameter also should likely not be optional, or the court parameter will break.
- url
- A Web address for the court document(s). For example, for a U.S. Supreme Court case, the URL to FindLaw is
http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=CASE&court=US&vol={{{vol}}}&page={{{page}}}. It may be permissible to use the URL of a Web page that provides summary information about the case, if the case documents are not available; however, an article about the case should be cited with {{Cite web}} or {{Cite news}}. This template is for citing a legal document and its wording directly. - access-date or accessdate
- The date that you viewed the URL, not the date of the case. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- via
- Name of the website (republisher) if the URL does not go to the site of the reporter above. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- lang
- Two-letter ISO 639-1 language code for the language in which the document is written, if it is not English (leave this parameter out if it is). This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- archive-url or archiveurl
- URL to a backup copy of the document at Wayback.Archive.org or some other archival site. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- archive-date or archivedate
- Date of the above archival. This presently is not displayed, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
- url-status
- live if the original URL no longer works; dead or blank otherwise; controls what is done with the archive-url. This presently is not functional, which is inconsistent with other citation templates.
