Template:Citation Style documentation/pages


 * page: The number of a single page in the source that supports the content. Use either page or pages, but not both. Displays preceded by p. unless y. If hyphenated, use hyphen to indicate this is intentional (e.g. 312), otherwise several editors and semi-automated tools will assume this was a misuse of the parameter to indicate a page range and will convert 3-12 to 3–12.
 * OR: pages: A range of pages in the source that supports the content. Use either page or pages, but not both. Separate using an en dash (–); separate non-sequential pages with a comma ; do not use to indicate the total number of pages in the source. Displays preceded by unless y. Hyphens are automatically converted to en dashes; if hyphens are appropriate because individual page numbers contain hyphens, for example: pp. 3-1–3-15, use double parentheses to tell the template to display the value of pages without processing it, and use hyphen to indicate to editors that a hyphen is really intended: ((31–315)). Alternatively, use at, like this: pp. 3-1&amp;ndash;3-15.
 * nopp: Set to y, yes , or true to suppress the p. or pp. notations where this is inappropriate; for example, where Front cover or passim.
 * OR: at: For sources where a page number is inappropriate or insufficient. Overridden by page or pages. Use only one of page, pages, or at.
 * Examples: page (p.) or pages (pp.); section (sec.), column (col.), paragraph (para.); track; hours, minutes and seconds; act, scene, canto, book, part, folio, stanza, back cover, liner notes, indicia, colophon, dust jacket, verse.
