תבנית:Google maps/תיעוד

This template is used for referencing maps published by Google LLC through their Google Maps service.

This template can also be set to emulate Citation Style 2 (CS2) style.

Note that unlike paper maps, Google offers dynamic sizing at variable scales. Major citation style guides omit a map scale in that situation so this template does not render any scale output.

Usage

{{Google maps|url= |title= |access-date=20 אפריל 2026}}

Parameters

• url – the URL for the map in question
• title – a "subtitle" for the map. The link text will appear as "<title>" if "title" is used; otherwise, it will be the page name.
• access-date – the full retrieval date.
• link – set to "no" to unlink the publisher.
• mode – set to "cs2" to use CS2 output (lower case only)
• ref: for Harvard-style referencing, if necessary
  • letter: a letter to append to a date or year for Harvard-style referencing, if necessary

Examples

Normal usage with automatic inclusion of page title (i.e. "Google maps", which is taken from the template's full page title "תבנית:Google maps/תיעוד"):

• {{Google maps |url= http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.821096 |access-date= 20 אפריל 2026}}

generates this:

• Google (תבנית:Date). "Google maps" (Map). Google Maps. Google. נבדק ב-תבנית:Date. {{cite map}}: יש לבדוק את התאריך ב: |access-date= and |date= (עזרה)

Using the optional "title" parameter:

• {{Google maps |url= http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%[email protected],%20-73.821096 |title= Driving directions to RT-308 |access-date= 20 אפריל 2026}}

generates this:

• Google (תבנית:Date). "Driving directions to RT-308" (Map). Google Maps. Google. נבדק ב-תבנית:Date. {{cite map}}: יש לבדוק את התאריך ב: |access-date= and |date= (עזרה)
