Referencing textbooks
There are a set of templates for citing textbooks.
An example of how one is used:
{{Ref Robbins8|123}}
Where:
Ref Robbins8 is the name of the template (found at Template:Ref PBoD8) 123 is the page number in that reference
The result is the following:
Kumar, Vinay; Abbas, Abul K.; Fausto, Nelson; Aster, Jon (2009). Robbins and Cotran pathologic basis of disease (8th ed.). Elsevier Saunders. pp. 123. ISBN 978-1416031215.
Redirecting reference templates
One can redirect templates like regular pages.
So:
{{Ref PBoD8|123}}
and...
{{Ref Robbins8|123}}
Both generate the same thing:
Kumar, Vinay; Abbas, Abul K.; Fausto, Nelson; Aster, Jon (2009). Robbins and Cotran pathologic basis of disease (8th ed.). Elsevier Saunders. pp. 123. ISBN 978-1416031215.
