This is a template to generate links to the [[Project Gutenberg]]. This template should be used exclusively for AUTHORS, ILLUSTRATORS, TRANSLATORS, and persons with similar roles in book production.<br />
<br />
To link directly to a BOOK, use [[template:Gutenberg]].<br />
<br />
==Process==<br />
#Go to the [http://www.gutenberg.org Project Gutenberg] web site.<br />
#Using the online catalog, search for the author you want to link via the template.<br />
#Find the author listing, such as: '''Harrison, James A. (James Albert) (1848-1911)'''<br />
#Edit the wikipedia page and add in the ''Gutenberg author'' template. If the author is the only one by that name on Project Gutenberg, use no parameters in the template. If needed (for instance, if the page is disambiguated, like [[Edward Thomas (poet)]], set the 'id' variable equal to the author's name in this format: '''James_A._Harrison'''. The 'id' sets the actual link to the Project Gutenberg database. The underlines "_" are required; if spaces are used, the link URL is truncated<br />
#You may also, in the case of a disambiguated page title, set the 'name' variable in the template to equal the author's name how you wish it to appear, such as: '''James A. Harrison''' or '''James Albert Harrison'''. The 'name' is for Wikipedia display purposes only.<br />
<br />
==Examples of correct usage==<br />
*On [[Jonathan Swift]]:<br />
*{{gutenberg author | id=Jonathan_Swift | name=Jonathan Swift}}<br />
:<nowiki>{{gutenberg author}} </nowiki><br />
*On [[Henry James]]:<br />
*{{gutenberg author | id=Henry_James_(1843-1916) | name=Henry James}}<br />
:<nowiki>{{gutenberg author | id=Henry_James_(1843-1916)}}</nowiki><br />
*On [[Edward Thomas (poet)]]:<br />
*{{gutenberg author | id=Edward_Thomas | name=Edward Thomas}}<br />
:<nowiki>{{gutenberg author | id=Edward_Thomas | name=Edward Thomas}}</nowiki><br />
Note: A partial name, such as <nowiki>{{gutenberg author | id=Jon | name=Jon}}</nowiki> will generate a list of all authors with "Jon" anywhere in the name. You can also use birth or death year only like this: (1843-) or (-1916) if the other date is unknown or uncertain. The parens and hyphen are required.<br />
