Usage

{{Cite DGRBM|author=|title=|volume=|page=|url=|short=}}

This template should be placed on the main page of the article.

There are six optional parameters:

author= refers to the author of the respective entry.
- In place of author= the parameters first= and last= can be used.
- The author abbreviation (without periods and spaces) can be used. E.g., "AA" will yield "Alexander Allen". Unsigned articles in the Dictionary are by William Smith (WS) himself.

AA = Alexander Allen; CTA = Charles Thomas Arnold; JEB = John Ernest Bode; ChAB = Christian A. Brandis; EHB = Edward Herbert Bunbury; AJC = Albany James Christie; AHC = Arthur Hugh Clough; GELC = George Edward Lynch Cotton; SD = Samuel Davidson; WFD = William Fishburn Donkin; WBD = William Bodham Donne; TD = Thomas Dyer; EE = Edward Elder; JTG = John Thomas Graves; WAG = William Alexander Greenhill; AG = Algernon Grenfell; WMG = William Maxwell Gunn; WI = William Ihne; BJ = Benjamin Jowett; HGL = Henry George Liddell; GL = George Long; JMM = John Morell Mackenzie; CPM = Charles Peter Mason; JCM = Joseph Calrow Means; HHM = Henry Hart Milman; AdeM = Augustus de Morgan; WP = William Plate; CEP = Constantine Estlin Prichard; WR = William Ramsay; LS = Leonhard Schmitz; PS = Philip Smith; WS = William Smith; APS = Arthur Penryhn Stanley; AS = Adolph Stahr; LU = Ludwig Urlichs; RW = Robert Whiston

url= can be used to link the title to an external source ("DGRBM: External links" contains urls to external on-line sources). Do not use this option if wstitle is used as the template automatically includes links to an article on Wikisource.
