Template:Citation Style documentation/date


 * date: Date of source being referenced. Can be full date (day, month, and year) or partial date (month and year, season and year, or year). Use same format as other publication dates in the citations. Required when year is used to disambiguate links to multiple-work citations by the same author in the same year.$[more]$ Do not wikilink. Displays after the authors and is enclosed in parentheses. If there is no author, then displays after publisher.
 * For approximate year, precede with " ", like this: c. 1900.


 * For no date, or "undated", add as n.d.


 * year: Year of source being referenced. Use of date is recommended unless all of the following conditions are met:
 * The template uses harv, or the template is, or cs2
 * The date format is YYYY-MM-DD.
 * The citation requires a  disambiguator.
 * orig-year: Original publication year; displays after the date or year. For clarity, please supply specifics. For example: First published 1859 or Composed 1904.
