This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite Google Maps. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used on approximately 15,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template is a Citation Style 1 specific-source template based on {{Cite map}}. For centralised Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1. |
This template is used for referencing maps published by Google LLC through their Google Maps service.
The template accepts all parameters that {{cite map}} does, unless |SV=yes
, in which case it accepts all parameters that {{cite web}} does. This template can also be set to emulate Citation Style 2 (CS2) style, via |mode=cs2
.
Note that unlike paper maps, Google offers dynamic sizing at variable scales. Major citation style guides omit a map scale in that situation so this template does not render any scale output.
Usage
{{Cite Google Maps|url= |title= |access-date=16 September 2024}}
Parameters
- url – the URL for the map in question
- title – a "subtitle" for the map. The link text will appear as "<title>" if "title" is used; otherwise, it will be the page name.
- access-date – the full retrieval date.
- SV – set to "yes" to change the website from Google Maps to Google Street View.
- date – date of Street View photography; only required when
|SV=yes
.
- date – date of Street View photography; only required when
- link – set to "no" to unlink the publisher.
- mode – set to "cs2" to use CS2 output (lower case only)
- ref: for Harvard-style referencing, if necessary
- letter: a letter to append to a date or year for Harvard-style referencing, if necessary
Examples
Normal usage with automatic inclusion of page title (i.e. "Cite Google Maps", which is taken from the template's full page title "Template:Cite Google Maps/doc"):
{{Cite Google Maps |url= http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.821096 |access-date= 16 September 2024}}
generates this:
- "Cite Google Maps" (Map). Google Maps. Retrieved 16 September 2024.
Using the optional "title" parameter:
{{Cite Google Maps |url= http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.821096 |title= Driving directions to RT-308 |access-date= 16 September 2024}}
generates this:
- "Driving directions to RT-308" (Map). Google Maps. Retrieved 16 September 2024.
For Google Street View imagery:
{{Cite Google Maps |url = https://goo.gl/maps/u5sTx |SV= yes |date= August 2014 |title = Adirondack Northway, Albany, New York |access-date = July 11, 2015}}
generates this:
- "Adirondack Northway, Albany, New York". Google Street View. August 2014. Retrieved July 11, 2015.
