Usage
Saves you filling out a citation template every time you want to cite a source. If your source has a DOI, just enter {{Cite doi|doi of your source}}
.
If another Wikipedia article already uses that reference (via the Cite doi template), it will automatically use the existing information to present the full citation details of the reference in the article. If not, a bot will complete it for you within a few minutes.
Use like this:
<ref name=Example2006>{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621}}</ref>
To refer to the same reference elsewhere in the same article, use:
<ref name=Example2006/>
Quotes
To include a quote from the reference, just place it inside the ref tags. To include more than one quote, the name parameter must be unique for each ref tag.
<ref name=Example2006a>{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621}} "A sample quote"</ref>
[1]
<ref name=Example2006b>{{Cite doi|10.1146/annurev.earth.33.092203.122621}} "Another sample quote"</ref>
[2]
Second references for each
If the quote should appear every time a reference is used, then add a quote parameter to the cite doi template.

Formatting
Templates produced via this template need to be formatted consistently so they match the reference formatting of all the articles they are used in. Therefore, they are formatted under the following guidelines. Please do not use the cite doi template in articles whose references are formatted differently. (You could subst: the template and change its formatting in the article, or modify the article to use this mode of formatting if appropriate).
- Citation template
- Template:Cite journal (or cite book if appropriate)
- Author formatting
- Smith, A.B.
- If possible, use
|last1=Smith
and|first1=A.B.
- The usual guidelines for wikilinking apply: only use
|author1-link=
if the link adds value to the citation. - Page number formatting
- first and last page numbers written in full; for instance, R100–R101
- Dates
- If a month or season may help locate a journal article, specify it with the date parameter (e.g. Jun 2009, Winter 1988). Do not specify a day.
- Links
- The URL should point to (in descending order of preference):
- Free access to the full text of the article on the publisher's website
- Free full text on an author's website (if no copyright issues)
- Free full text on an advert-supported website
- Free proofs/drafts on an author's personal website (if no copyright issues)
- Full text available to subscribers (if abstract available to unsubscribers)
