| A citation, or reference, uniquely identifies a source of information. Citations are used to identify the [[WikiIslam:Reliable Sources|reliable sources]] on which all [[WikiIslam]] articles are based. They usually appear on pages in the form of footnotes and are indicated by a superscript number in a line of text.
| | == Citing == |
| | Any claim or material that is likely to be challenged must be cited. All claims must be supported by scholarly sources and not reliant solely on reasoning provided by editors. We should strive to be as objective, and fact-centered as possible. |
|
| |
|
| ==Cite Web==
| | All sources must be third-party published sources, and must avoid tabloid and unreliable sources. Sources must verify the claim being made, and must not be copy-pasted from it unless it is being quoted. Cite in MLA or APA format when possible unless you are citing direct Islamic scriptures. |
|
| |
|
| The [[Template:Cite web|Cite Web]] template deals with the actual references i.e. the content that goes between the ref tags. Its use ensures that the formatting for references remains consistent throughout the site and also enables easy system-wide changes. | | The standard method of citing in Wikiislam is with a footnote at the end of the sentence and after the punctuation where the claim it supports appears. More than one citation may be necessary if the claim is heavily disputed or controversial. |
|
| |
|
| When citing references in articles, it is important not to leave naked URLs. What is being referenced should be easily identifiable without having to leave the page through an external link. For example, this link:

| | "Leaving his wife and children behind during the month of [[Ramadan]], the now wealthy Muhammad would often fall back to a cave located at the summit of Mount Hira, just outside Mecca in the Arabian Hijaz, where he fasted and prayed. According to Islamic belief, when he was about forty years old (610 AD) he was visited by the Angel [[Gabriel]] (جبريل ''Jibreel'') and commanded to recite verses sent by Allah. These verses would later become what is believed to be the first part of Sura 96. This experience frightened him, and originally thinking he was possessed by a demon, he became suicidal.

Generally, you should use the most accurate translation of the relevant Arabic words. |
| | * Using Quran templates will cite and link automatically (See [[Template:Quran|here]] and [[Template:Quran-range|here]]) |
| | * Chapter (A) and verse (B) numbers will appear in “Quran A:B” format |
| | * Example: Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar Qur’an 108:1 |
|
| |
|
| ===Minimal Parameters===
| | Hadith: |
|
| |
|
| <pre>
| | * Using hadith templates for appropriate collection will cite and link automatically (See [[WikiIslam:Citing Sources#Referencing%20Hadith|here]]) |
| {{cite web| url= | title= | author= | publisher= | date= | archiveurl= | deadurl=no/yes}}
| | * Quote the full Hadith in English |
| </pre>
| | * Where applicable Use USC-MSA web (English) reference |
|
| |
|
| *url= URL of an online location where the text of the publication can be found. | | * For certain hadith collections where USC-MSA is unavailable use the reference system suggested for each collection [[WikiIslam:Citing Sources#Referencing%20Hadith|here]] (or one of the listed alternatives if necessary). These correspond to the reference systems selected by default for each collection on QuranX. |
| *title= Title of web page. Displays in quotes. | | * Some hadiths may be long - it is acceptable to bold the relevant information to the claim within the hadith. If the hadith is very long, it may be acceptable to place [...] at the beginning and end of an extract. |
| *author= Name of author or authors if available.
| | * Always test generated links. If there is a problem read the relevant template page. Use the reference numbers as found on QuranX if they differ from sunnah.com. The latter has many numbering mistakes, corrected on QuranX. |
| *publisher= Organization or website's name. A website's URL should be used only when there is no proper name available. So, for example, Islam Q&A is located at islamqa.info, but Islam Q&A is the title that should be cited as the publisher. | | * Example: Narrated 'Aisha: that '''the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old''', and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death). Sahih Bukhari 7:62:64 |
| *date= Full date of source being referenced in the month/day/year format (e.g. February 21, 2014). This is the date mentioned on the website (if any). | |
|
| |
|
| :*accessdate= Full date when URL was accessed (use if the sourced page does not indicate a date of publication).
| | === Citing in Relevant Quotations Section === |
| | Do ''not'' cite in the “Relevant Quotations” section of any article. This section is only for quotes from direct Islamic scriptures. When a single source makes more than one claim they should be listed as separate citations. If two sources make the same claim you should pick the more reliable source. |
|
| |
|
| *archiveurl= The URL of an archived copy of a web page, if or in case the url becomes unavailable. Typically used to refer to services like WebCite.
| | == Mediums == |
| *deadurl= When the URL is still live, but preemptively archived, then set |deadurl=no. This changes the display order with the title retaining the original link and the archive linked at the end.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Additional Parameters=== | | === Book === |
|
| |
|
| <pre>| accessdate= | series= | isbn= | page= | pages= | quote= | language=
| | ==== Lane’s Lexicon (For Terms) ==== |
| </pre>
| |
|
| |
|
| *series= Additional information that cannot be included under author or publisher. For example journal number | | * Word being termed in both original and English language |
| *quote= Relevant text quoted from the source. Displays enclosed in quotes. When supplied, the citation terminator (a period by default) is suppressed, so the quote needs to include terminating punctuation. | | * “Lane’s Lexicon” linked to appropriate pdf page file on (<nowiki>http://www.studyquran.org/LaneLexicon/</nowiki>) |
| *isbn= For citing books. The ISBN is a numeric commercial book identifier based upon the 9-digit SBN code. Most published books have them.
| | * page number (not pdf file number) |
| *page= Page number of the book/journal being cited. | | * Example: مَهْدً mahdan - Lane's Lexicon, p.2739 |
| *pages= Page numbers of the book/journal being cited. Used when the information is spread over more than 1 page (e.g. 223-224).
| |
| *language= Language of content being cited. Only needed for languages other than English | |
|
| |
|
| ==Archived Links== | | ==== Other Books - In APA or MLA format ==== |

| {{Quote|[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_rot#Prevalence Link rot (Prevalence)]|The 404 "Not Found" response is familiar to even the occasional Web user. A number of studies have examined the prevalence of link rot on the Web, in academic literature, and in digital libraries. In a 2003 experiment, Fetterly et al. discovered that about one link out of every 200 disappeared each week from the internet. McCown et al. (2005) discovered that '''half of the URLs''' cited in D-Lib Magazine articles '''were no longer accessible 10 years after publication''', and other studies have shown link rot in academic literature to be even worse (Spinellis, 2003, Lawrence et al., 2001). Nelson and Allen (2002) examined link rot in digital libraries and found that about '''3% of the objects were no longer accessible after one year.'''}}

|
| Archive.is archives:
| | == Linking == |
| | Linking is a way to connect Wikiislam pages within the text. If there exists a page on a subject that is brought up within an article it is encouraged to link the page within the text. However, over-linking can be distracting. By rule of thumb only link the first occurrence of the subject being mentioned in the article. |
|
| |
|
| *Regular web pages
| | You can link a subject by enclosing it in double brackets <nowiki>[[X]]</nowiki> |
| *Forum threads
| |
| *Blogs
| |
| *Facebook pages
| |
|
| |
|
| But it does ''not'' archive PDF and other media files.
| | == Quoting == |
| | Using the quote template can provide useful information from primary sources in a direct manner. However too many of them will cause unnecessary clutter in the page. Unless absolutely necessary to keep the flow of the article, do not use the quote template outside the “Relevant Quotations” section. (See Structure Protocol for more details) |
|
| |
|
| To archive a page, enter the target URL into the "submit url" box (http://archive.is/) and press submit. You will then see the new archived URL that can be used in the 'archiveurl' parameter for the Cite Web template.
| | The “Relevant Quotations” section will contain the direct relevant quotations from primary scriptures such as Qur’an and hadith. These will only be in quotation template format. |
|
| |
|
| ===Embedded Links===
| | If you must reference something to support a claim, cite it in a footnote. If you must quote a published work outside of the “Relevant Quotations” section use quotation marks and incorporate the quote into the text and include a footnote citation at the end. It may also be justifiable to highlight a certain quote within the main text - if so please use the “Quote-text” template. |
|
| |
|
| Embedded links to external websites should never be used as a form of inline citation. Nevertheless, they are used on occasion, for example, in the [[Fatwa: It is Permissible to Use the "Torah and the New Testament... for Anal Cleansing after Defecation"|Translations of Arabic/Islamic Media]] pages. In these rare instances, only a single link is appropriate, rather than both the original and the archive link side-by-side. For these, the [[Template:Reference archive|Reference archive]] template should be used.
| | Example of cluttered formatting: |
| | |
| To use this template, the target URL would have to be archived by entering it into the WebCite archive form (http://www.webcitation.org/archive).
| |
| | |
| Then the target URL in its original form, along with the date it was archived, need to be added to the Reference archive:
| |
| | |
| ::<tt><nowiki>{{Reference archive|1=###|2=###}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the original URL, and the second parameter is the date it was archived. The date format is year-month-day, all in numbers rather than words (e.g. 2014-02-26 rather than February 26, 2014).
| |
| | |
| If absolutely needed, embedded links to Wikipedia can be made by using the <tt><nowiki>[[w:Target article|Text]]</nowiki></tt> feature or <tt><nowiki>{{</nowiki><nowiki>wp|article name}}</nowiki></tt>. As with embedded links to other sites, these links should never be used as a form of inline citation.
| |
| | |
| ==Islamic Text==
| |
| | |
| Templates make it easy to cite Islamic sources. For example, instead of finding the exact USC-MSA URL of a Qur'an verse or hadith, all that is needed is to type <tt><nowiki>{{Muslim|7|88}}</nowiki></tt> and the reference and link is automatically created.
| |
| | |
| The following are a list of templates that are available for use:
| |
| | |
| ===Referencing the Qur'an===
| |
| | |
| Not all Qur'an-related templates are covered here. Refer to the Q section in [[:Category:Templates|Category:Templates]] for the full list.
| |
| | |
| ====Single Verse====
| |
| | |
| To reference a verse from the Qur'an type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Quran|#|#}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the chapter/surah number, while the second parameter is the verse number.
| |
| | |
| ====Multiple Verses====
| |
| | |
| To reference multiple verses from the Qur'an type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Quran-range|#|#|#}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the chapter/surah number, while the second parameter is the starting verse number, and the third parameter is the ending verse number.
| |
| | |
| ====Verse and Transliteration====
| |
| | |
| To reference a verse from the Qur'an along with its Romanized transliteration type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Qtt|#|#}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the chapter/surah number, while the second parameter is the verse number.
| |
| | |
| ===Referencing Hadith===
| |
| | |
| ====Referencing Bukhari====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Bukhari|Bukhari]] type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Bukhari|#|#|#}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| The first parameter is the volume number, the second parameter is the book number and the third parameter is the narration number.
| |
| | |
| By default, this will create a link using the USC-MSA hadith referencing system.
| |
| | |
| <b>Alternative Sahih Bukhari referencing systems can also be used.</b> You can cite a hadith using its Dar-us-Salam reference number (as found in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Bukhari) by adding an additional parameter with the value "darussalam".
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Bukhari|||#|darussalam}}</nowiki></tt> (note that the first parameter for the volume number and second parameter for the book number are left empty for Dar-us-Salam Reference citations)
| |
| | |
| You can also cite a Bukhari hadith using the In-book reference convention (created by sunnah.com) by adding an additional parameter with the value "in-book".
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Bukhari||#|#|in-book}}</nowiki></tt> (note that the first parameter for the volume is left empty for in-book citations)
| |
| | |
| The book number in the In-book reference system corresponds with the book number in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Bukhari, and the hadith number is an incremental number which starts at 1 for the first hadith in each book.
| |
| | |
| The alternative referencing systems allow hadiths to be cited that did not appear within the USC-MSA collection. It also allows a specific hadith to be cited when there are multiple hadiths with the same USC-MSA number (a link using the default USC-MSA referencing system would display a list of hadiths in that situation).
| |
| | |
| ====Referencing Muslim====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Muslim|Muslim]] type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Muslim|#|#}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the book number and the second parameter is the narration number.
| |
| | |
| By default, this will create a link using the USC-MSA hadith referencing system.
| |
| | |
| <b>Alternative Sahih Muslim referencing systems can also be used.</b> You can cite a hadith by a single hadith reference number as found in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Sahih Muslim by adding an additional parameter with the value "reference". Please note that this is not the square bracket number in the Dar-us-Salam edition, but rather the round bracket number for the hadith in the same book, which was devised by the Islamic scholar Fuwad Abdul Baqi. This is a number commonly used when citing hadiths in Sahih Muslim.
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Muslim||#|reference}}</nowiki></tt> (note that the first parameter for the book number is left empty for Dar-us-Salam Reference citations)
| |
| | |
| You can also cite a Sahih Muslim hadith using the In-book reference convention (created by sunnah.com) by adding an additional parameter with the value "in-book".
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Muslim|#|#|in-book}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The book number in the In-book reference system corresponds with the book number in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Sahih Muslim, and the hadith number is an incremental number which starts at 1 for the first hadith in each book.
| |
| | |
| The alternative referencing systems allow hadiths to be cited that did not appear within the USC-MSA collection. It also allows a specific hadith to be cited when there are multiple hadiths with the same USC-MSA number (a link using the default USC-MSA referencing system would display a list of hadiths in that situation).
| |
| | |
| ====Referencing Abu Dawud====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Abudawud|Abu Dawud]] type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Abudawud|#|#}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the book number and the second parameter is the narration number.
| |
| | |
| By default, this will create a link using the USC-MSA hadith referencing system. The USC-MSA (CMJE) partial collection for Abu Dawud only included roughly half of his hadiths.
| |
| | |
| <b>Alternative Abu Dawud referencing systems can also be used</b>, which cover the entire collection.
| |
| | |
| You can cite a Sunan Abu Dawud hadith using the reference system found in the translation of the entire Abu Dawud collection by Ahmad Hasan (this translation is used by USC-MSA and other popular sites). You can do this by adding an additional parameter with the value "hasan".
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Abudawud||#|hasan}}</nowiki></tt> (note that the first parameter for the book number is left empty for Ahmad Hasan reference citations - they are not used because his book numbers varied depending on the edition).
| |
| | |
| Ahmad Hasan's hadith (narration) numbers were also used by USC-MSA (for the hadiths in their partial collection). USC-MSA used the book numbers from the 1990 edition of Hasan's translation, which had 41 books unlike the other editions in which he put the same hadiths into 36 books.
| |
| | |
| You can also cite a hadith using its Dar-us-Salam reference number (as found in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Sunan Abu Dawud) by adding an additional parameter with the value "darussalam".
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Abudawud||#|darussalam}}</nowiki></tt> (note that the first parameter for the book number is left empty for Dar-us-Salam Reference citations)
| |
| | |
| The alternative referencing systems allow hadiths to be cited that did not appear within the USC-MSA collection. It also allows a specific hadith to be cited when there are multiple hadiths with the same USC-MSA number (a link using the default USC-MSA referencing system would display a list of hadiths in that situation).
| |
| | |
| ====Referencing Muwatta====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Muwatta|Malik's Muwatta]] type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Muwatta|#||#}}</nowiki></tt> (note the empty 2nd parameter)
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the book number, the second parameter is the section number (no longer used), and the third parameter is the narration number. If you do happen to know the section number (second parameter) for the hadith you are citing, put it in anyway as it might be useful one day.
| |
| | |
| :<i>An optional fourth parameter allowed a suffix to be added to the narration number (no longer used, but put it in if you know there is one in case it's useful one day). The disused 2nd and 4th parameters are retained for the sake of earlier citations which had them, and their values are visible on the pages although not included in the links (except when they were mistakenly used for the book and hadith number - the template can detect this).</i>
| |
| | |
| By default, this will create a link using the USC-MSA hadith referencing system.
| |
| | |
| <b>An alternative Muwatta referencing system can be used</b> by adding an additional parameter with the value "arabic". This is called 'Arabic reference' for Muwatta Malik on sunnah.com.
| |
| | |
| To do so type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Muwatta|#||#||arabic}}</nowiki></tt> (note the empty 2nd and 4th parameters)
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>The alternative referencing system allows hadiths to be cited that did not appear within the USC-MSA collection. It also allows a specific hadith to be cited when there are multiple hadiths with the same USC-MSA number (a link using the default USC-MSA referencing system would display a list of hadiths in that situation).}}</nowiki>
| |
| | |
| ====Referencing Tirmidhi====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Al Tirmidhi|Tirmidhi]] type: <tt><nowiki>{{Al Tirmidhi||#|#|#}}</nowiki></tt> (note the empty first parameter)
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the book number on sunnah.com (can be left blank), the second parameter is the volume number, the third parameter is the book number, and the forth parameter is the narration number.
| |
| | |
| This provides the full citation as found in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Jami` at-Tirmidhi (this is the reference called "English reference" on sunnah.com).
| |
| | |
| The first parameter was used by the old template to link to the relevant book on sunnah.com. It is no longer used and can be left empty, but is retained for the sake of existing citations that used 4 parameters. It is recommended to input this parameter in case it is ever needed in future.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ====Referencing Nasa'i====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Al Nasai|Nasai'i]] type: <tt><nowiki>{{Al Nasai||#|#|#}}</nowiki></tt> (note the empty first parameter)
| |
| | |
| The first parameter can be left blank, the second parameter is the volume number, the third parameter is the book number, and the forth parameter is the narration number.
| |
| | |
| This provides the full citation as found in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Sunan an-Nasa'i (this is the reference called "English translation" on sunnah.com).
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is no longer used and can be left empty, but is retained for the sake of existing citations that used 4 parameters. It was used by the old template to link to the relevant book on sunnah.com. In any case for Nasa'i it was always the same as the book number in the 3rd parameter, so was redundant anyway.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ====Referencing Ibn Majah====
| |
| | |
| To reference a hadith from [[Template:Ibn Majah|Ibn Majah]] type: <tt><nowiki>{{Ibn Majah||#|#|#}}</nowiki></tt> (note the empty first parameter)
| |
| | |
| The first parameter can be left blank, the second parameter is the volume number, the third parameter is the book number, and the forth parameter is the narration number.
| |
| | |
| This provides the full citation as found in the Dar-us-Salam print edition of Sunan Ibn Majah (this is the reference called "English reference" on sunnah.com).
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is no longer used and can be left empty, but is retained for the sake of existing citations that used 4 parameters. It was used by the old template to link to the relevant book on sunnah.com. In any case for Ibn Majah it was always the same as the book number in the 3rd parameter, so was redundant anyway.

| ==Quotation Boxes==
| |
| | |
| When quoting a source that you want to put in a quotation box, type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Quote|###|###}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The first parameter is the reference for the text being quoted (this parameters can be left empty if references are being cited via ref tags). The second parameter is where the actual quotation is placed.
| |
| | |
| ===Islamic Texts===
| |
| | |
| To quote an Islamic text, the relevant template for referencing that particular text must be placed within the first parameter of the quotation box template.
| |
| | |
| For example, to quote {{Quran|2|256}}, this is what has to be typed:
| |
| | |
| ::<tt>{{Quote|{{<nowiki>Quran|2|256}}|Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error...}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| And it should produce this:
| |
| | |
| :{{Quote|{{Quran|2|256}}|Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error...}}
| |
| | |
| '''Bold''' or ''italic'' emphasis may be added to quotations, but {{underline|underlining}} and ALLCAPS should be avoided.
| |
| | |
| ===General Sources===
| |
| | |
| For quoting general sources, a modified version of the [[#Cite_Web|Cite Web]] template is used (minimal and additional parameters remain unchanged).
| |
| | |
| ::<tt><nowiki>{{cite web quotebox|url= |title= |publisher= |author= |date= |archiveurl= |deadurl=no}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The modified Cite Web template must be placed within the first parameter of the quotation box template. For example, this link and all of the relevant information:
| |
| | |
| ::<tt>http://www.jordantimes.com/?news=19888</tt>
| |
| | |
| When applied to the modified Cite Web template and the quotations template:
| |
| | |
| ::<tt><nowiki>{{Quote|{{cite web quotebox|url= http://www.jordantimes.com/?news=19888|title= Productivity suffers during holy month|publisher= The Jordan Times|author= Mohammad Ghazal|date= September 10, 2009|archiveurl= http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http://www.jordantimes.com/?news=19888&date=2011-04-04|deadurl=no}}|The holy month at the time of the Prophet Mohammad and his companions was a time of great achievements and crucial battles won by the Muslims, Sharia (Islamic law) scholar Hamdi Murad said Wednesday.}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| Should produce this:
| |
| | |
| ::{{Quote|{{cite web quotebox|url= http://www.jordantimes.com/?news=19888|title= Productivity suffers during holy month|publisher= The Jordan Times|author= Mohammad Ghazal|date= September 10, 2009|archiveurl= http://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http://www.jordantimes.com/?news=19888&date=2011-04-04|deadurl=no}}|The holy month at the time of the Prophet Mohammad and his companions was a time of great achievements and crucial battles won by the Muslims, Sharia (Islamic law) scholar Hamdi Murad said Wednesday.}}
| |
| | |
| ==Quotations Without a Box==
| |
| | |
| To add an indented quotation without any surrounding box, type: <tt>{{<nowiki>Quote-text|###|###}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| The parameters are used in the same way as in the Quote template described above. For example,
| |
| to quote {{Quran|2|256}}, this is what has to be typed:
| |
| | |
| :<tt>{{Quote-text|{{<nowiki>Quran|2|29}}|He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth. Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens. And He is knower of all things.}}</nowiki></tt>
| |
| | |
| And it should produce this:
| |
| | |
| {{Quote-text|{{Quran|2|29}}|He it is Who created for you all that is in the earth. Then turned He to the heaven, and fashioned it as seven heavens. And He is knower of all things.}}
