Template:Cite AHD
Usage
This template creates a {{Cite web}} citation to individual records at the Australian Heritage Database, a useful searchable reference source on Australia's heritage places.
Parameters
- There are two unnamed parameters
- Place ID number. This is the only mandatory parameter. It can be found at the end of the URL
- An optional title
For example, the Emery Point Lighthouse record can be referenced using
{{Cite AHD |16274 |Emery Point Lighthouse}}
resulting in:
"Emery Point Lighthouse (Place ID 16274 )". Australian Heritage Database. Australian Government.
Or, if one prefers not to mention the title:
{{Cite AHD|16274}}
results in:
"Place ID 16274". Australian Heritage Database. Australian Government.
- The date of registration can be specified using the

Harvard style referencing
This template provides a simple Harvard style reference, using AHD followed by the ID number. For example, to reference the Emery Point Lighthouse use {{sfn|AHD16274}}
or {{harvnb|AHD16274}}
, as appropriate. However, year referencing is not supported at this time.
