This template is for citing sources. 
The use of citation templates is not required. See BZFlagWiki:Citing sources for the relevant guideline.
Please consider using specific citation templates before this general template. For a list of citation templates, see Category:Citation templates.
Example:
Code:
{{cite|author=Fred Bloggs|title=A book|publisher=A Publisher|date=2004-07-31}}
Result:
- Fred Bloggs,  A book,  A Publisher,  2004-07-31.
 
Note: As "the date" is a single parameter in the code, using something like date=July 31, 2004 doesn't work. Hence the ISO date format is used in the example.
