Wikilinks
Most fields can be wikilinked (ie. title = book title ), but should generally only be linked to an existing Wikipedia article. Any wikilinked field must not contain any brackets apart from normal round brackets  &mdash; don't use.

Syntax (for the technical-minded)
Nested fields either rely on their parent fields, or replace them:
 * parent
 * child &mdash; may be used with parent (and is ignored if parent is not used)
 * OR: child2 &mdash; may be used instead of parent (and is ignored if parent is used)

Description

 * last: Surname of author. Don't wikilink (use authorlink instead).
 * first: First name(s) of author, including title(s) (eg. Firstname Middlename or Firstname M. or Dr. Firstname M., Snr.). Don't wikilink (use authorlink instead).
 * The `last' and `first' fields are poorly named for the case of an author whose surname is usually written first (e.g. as in Chinese). They also have the problem of only communicating which is the surname, not communicating where the surname is usually written.  Consider deprecating first,last fields, and reinstating author field, using the notation "Smith, John" or "Hu Ke Jie" as appropriate (i.e. always writing surname first, and using comma or not depending on whether the name is usually written surname last or first).
 * authorlink: Title of Wikipedia article about author. Article should already exist. Must not be wikilinked itself. Do not use this on its own, but along with "author" or "first" and "last".
 * coauthors: Full name of additional author or authors, surname last, separated by ", " (eg. Joe Bloggs, John F. Kennedy, H. R. Dent).
 * Someone please confirm that surname is to go last even for people whose name is usually written surname first. Consider rethinking this field, e.g. using Bloggs, Joe and Kennedy, John F. and Dent, H. R. and Hu Ke Jie.
 * OR: author: Full name of author, preferably surname first.
 * editor: Name of editor/editors. No text is added, so labels such as "(ed.)" have to be supplied by the user.
 * others: For uses such as "illustrated by Smith" or "trans. Smith".
 * title: Title of book. This is the only required parameter. Can be wikilinked only to an existing Wikipedia article. Do not use italics.
 * url: URL of an online book. Cannot be used if you wikilinked title.
 * format: Format, i.e. PDF. HTTP implied if not specified.
 * accessdate: Full date when item was accessed, in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, eg. 2006-02-17. Required when url field is used. Must not be wikilinked.
 * OR: accessyear: Year when item was accessed, and accessmonth: Month when item was accessed. If you also have the day, use accessdate instead. Must not be wikilinked.
 * edition: When the book has more than one edition. eg: "2nd edition".
 * origdate: Full date of publication of original edition, in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, eg. 2004-06-27. Must not be wikilinked.
