A ferramenta de citações do Editor Visual permite a usuários utilizar as predefinições de citação de sua wiki através do Editor Visual. Para ativá-la, você deverá fazer o seguinte: uma instalação válida do Editor Visual e Parsoid , predefinições de citação na sua wiki que usam TemplateData para especificar como serão invocados, e uma mensagem .json especial a fim de unir o Editor Visual às predefinições.

Importação de predefinições de citação

You'll need citation templates in your wiki's database in order to use any citation features. If you do not currently have citation templates on your wiki (for example, in the case of a new installation) you'll need to get them. Copying them from Wikipedia is the easiest way to do this. If you already have citation templates on your wiki, you can skip these steps.

Most citation templates on Wikipedia use the programming language Lua which Scribunto makes available, and they also use the extension's parser functions. The Cite extension allows you to use the ‎<ref> tags. All Wikipedias and other WMF wikis already have all of these things installed.

  1. Export citation templates from Wikipedia: Manual:Using content from Wikipedia . Exporting w:Template:Cite web, w:Template:Cite news, w:Template:Cite journal, w:Template:Cite book is a good place to start.

Recent versions of these templates at the English Wikipedia and some others also require the supporting Lua modules.

  1. Upload your templates using the Special:Import page on your wiki (for example, http://localhost/index.php/Special:Import).

Dados de predefinições

You'll need Extensão:TemplateData for the citation tool to be able to load the template data into the fields in VisualEditor and each template must have template data defined. For more information on how to define template data for citations, and to see screenshots of how a citation window should look with and without template data defined, see: Wikipedia:VisualEditor/TemplateData

Definição da ferramenta de citações

To enable the VisualEditor citation tool on your wiki, you need to create a special configuration message on your wiki: MediaWiki:Cite-tool-definition.json. This is because each wiki is different and so needs to customise which features it wants to use; for example, the names of the templates used on your wiki might be different from those of other wikis.

Propósito da mensagem de configuração

A mensagem:

  • Says which templates your wiki uses for standard citations (you can state up to 5).
    • Note that each template must have TemplateData defined or the system will be very difficult for users to understand. If your wiki does not currently use citation templates, it is common to copy the templates from the English Wikipedia as a good general set.
  • Says which label you wish to use for each type of citation.
    • Existem três predefinidas, web, livro e periódico, que correspondem a MediaWiki:Visualeditor-cite-tool-name-web, etc.
  • Says which icon you wish to use for each type of citation.
    • There are a standard four, "ref-cite-web", "ref-cite-book", "ref-cite-news" and "ref-cite-journal", which correspond to CSS classes with the icon as a background SVG image called oo-ui-icon-ref-cite-news etc.

Once the MediaWiki:Cite-tool-definition.json configuration message is created, the citation tool will be live for all VisualEditor users on your wiki within a few minutes.

Tipos adicionais

If you are considering adding an additional type, the development team would really like to talk with you first, to give advice, help create an appropriate icon, and so we can consider whether other wikis might also want this type defined for all wikis.

Para adicionar um tipo adicional, vai precisar do seguinte:

  1. Decidir que tipo deseja criar
    • In this example, say you wished to have a database reference, you could call the type "database".
  2. Criar um rótulo
    • For the example, you could make the label name "db" and add a label at MediaWiki:Visualeditor-cite-tool-name-db with the value "database". This should be in your wiki's content language. If your wiki uses multiple languages or scripts, you may need to create several of these labels.
  3. Criar um ícone
    • For the example, you could make the icon label "ref-cite-dbase", and create the icon as an SVG file uploaded to commons, create the icon class "oo-ui-icon-ref-cite-dbase" in MediaWiki:Common.css and add the icon you want with "background-image:url(//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/12/VisualEditor_-_Icon_-_Ref_db.svg)" or similar.

Template type mapping

In addition to MediaWiki:Cite-tool-definition.json, you also need to create MediaWiki:Citoid-template-type-map.json to specify which types of citations map to which templates. You can see an example on the English Wikipedia.

"Citation needed" tool

 
The "citation needed" tool.

"Citation needed" templates can be configured to show an "Add a citation" button in the editor by configuring MediaWiki:Visualeditor-template-tools-definition.json with a citationNeeded key.

The configuration value lists templates (which can contain multiple titles for redirects) and parameter mappings. Currently supported keys are:

  • reason - shows the reason a citation is needed in the context item
  • date - shows the date "citation needed" template was added in the context item
  • encapsulate - text which has been wrapped by the template, and which should be unwrapped when a citation is added

The value of these mappings is the name of the parameter(s) in the local template:

{
	"citationNeeded": [
		// This key is always "citationNeeded" in every language
		// Each item of this list represents a single template
		{
			"title": [
				// Title can be a string, or list of redirects
				"Citation needed",
				"Cn",
				...
			],
			"params": {
				"reason": "reason",
				"date": "date"
			}
		},
		// This template is defined separately as it supports the
		// "encapsulate" param. On some wikis this is the same
		// template as the one above.
		{
			"title": [
				"Citation needed span",
				"Cite needed span",
				...
			],
			"params": {
				// Parameters can be a string or list of aliases
				"encapsulate": [ "1", "text" ],
				"reason": "reason",
				"date": "date"
			}
		}
	]
}

See the example definition on English Wikipedia.

Solução de problemas

If you navigate to Special:Version and TemplateData is installed, but fields aren't showing up in the citation dialog, you may need to open the citation template for editing, make no changes, and save it again. This is due to a bug where TemplateData which is transcluded (i.e. present in Template:Cite_web/doc instead of directly on Template:Cite_web) is not loaded into the database until the parent template is edited; see task T52372.

Please note that the user experience will differ slightly when using your own templates other than the standard 4. For instance, a list of fields won't show up initially in the citation dialog, but you will be able to request a list of all possible fields by clicking a button.
