Usage

Place the following code on the page and replace "book," "text," "story," "stext," "updated," and "reprint" with the appropriate information. 

{{WEGCite|book=|text=|story=|stext=|reprint=|updated=}}

The book and story fields are required, while text, stext, updated, and reprint are optional formatting parameters.

All formatting must adhere to the proper formatting from Layout Guide:

→Note: Edition follows a comma and is not italicized. See Forum:CT:How to name publication edition, redux
  • Any sourcebook from West End Games can be used in the book field. As an example, Galaxy Guide 3: The Empire Strikes Back.
  • To format the sourcebook article, use the text field. Galaxy Guide 3: The Empire Strikes Back (Second Edition) → ''Galaxy Guide 3: The Empire Strikes Back'', Second Edition
  • Any story from West End Games can be used in the story field.
  • If the story field needs to be formatted then use stext, otherwise it should be omitted.
  • Updated should be used to indicate that the content of the source is the same as another, but updated to the Second edition.
  • Reprint should be used to indicate that the content of the source is the same as another, including the edition.
