Description

This metadata template links Wikisource pages to various library catalogue systems.

Authority control data should be added to the corresponding item at Wikidata, and the template will access authority control information from that project.

Usage

{{Authority control}}

Authors

Add as an empty template. [Local parameter addition is deprecated, as all authority control data is to be added to the author's Wikidata page.]

Note: Add below copyright tags.

Texts

As some local works are yet to be added to Wikidata, it is possible to locally add that data to a work.

For Picturesque New Guinea:

{{authority control|LCCNbook=44033150|ARCHIVE=picturesquenewgu00lind|OL=OL6474514M|OCLC=3415579}}
