This template provides a standardized inline reference for the National Register of Historic Places' NRIS database as a source.
Template syntax is as follows:
{{NRISref |version=see below for available database versions |dateform=format |accessdate=date |link=no |refnum=NRIS ID |name=title}}
For example, {{NRISref|2013a|dateform=mdy|accessdate=June 20, 2024|refnum=66000030|name=Lincoln Memorial}}
renders:
"National Register Information System – Lincoln Memorial (#66000030)". National Register of Historic Places. National Park Service. November 2, 2013. Retrieved June 20, 2024.
Acceptable values for the |version=
parameter represent specific versions of the NRIS database:
Any year in which only one database version is present may drop the \"a\" at the end (e.g. \"2010\" will work in place of \"2010a\"). It is also possible to simply make the database the first unnamed parameter used in the template (e.g. {{NRISref|2009a}} works exactly the same as {{NRISref|version=2009a}}). If the database value in |version=
is incorrectly specified or missing, the article is added to Category:NRISref errors. There are currently 0 pages in the error category.
