Usage[edit]

This template is used to access pages on Leigh Rayment's Peerage Pages

With just a date=month year parameter this template links to that web site. But this template also takes three optional parameters.

There is one named parameter called external links which should be set to "1" if this template is being used in an "External links" or a "Further reading" section of an article. It will turn off the two messages warning that this is a ^{[self-published source?]} and ^{[better source needed]}.

{{Rayment|date=May 2024|external links=1}}
Leigh Rayment's Peerage Pages

Peerage pages on the website Leigh Rayment's Peerage Pages are placed at www.leighrayment.com/peers/peers with two additional parameters. The first letter of Peerage name and a page number. So Peerages on page "1" of names starting with an "A" are at www.leighrayment.com/peers/peers/peersA1.htm and Peerages on page "2" of names starting with the letter S are at www.leighrayment.com/peers/peersS2.htm and so on.

This template takes two unnamed parameters in the order page and number (Whether they come before or after the named parameter external links=1 does not matter). So the two examples above would be entered like this:

{{Rayment|date=May 2024|A|1}}
Leigh Rayment's Peerage Pages – Peerages beginning with "A" (part 1)^{[self-published source]} ^{[better source needed]}

{{Rayment|date=May 2024|S|2}}
Leigh Rayment's Peerage Pages – Peerages beginning with "S" (part 2)^{[self-published source]} ^{[better source needed]}

All four together like this:

{{Rayment|date=May 2024|external links=1|A|1}}
Leigh Rayment's Peerage Pages – Peerages beginning with "A" (part 1)
