This template produces a series of links to various search interfaces to help find additional reference material for articles. It is based on the {{tl|find sources multi}} meta-template. {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if: {{{inarticle|}}} | | This template should not be used in articles themselves - see [[Wikipedia:EL#Links normally to be avoided]]. }}

== Usage ==

The first parameter is the main search term, which will be treated as a [[literal string]] if multi-part (e.g. <code>Albert Einstein</code> will be searched as the single string "Albert Einstein" not "Albert" and "Einstein" separately).

Optional subsequent parameters (up to 4) are additional search terms. They can be enclosed in double quotation marks, preceded by an unspaced <code>-</code> (hyphen) to exclude them from the search results, or both (e.g. <code>-"Marilyn Monroe"</code> to exclude matches containing the phrase "Marilyn Monroe", but not either name by itself, from the search results). You do ''not'' need to add <code>-wikipedia</code>, as the template automatically does this for you. Also, there is no need to add words in plural form unless irregular, as the search interface will match (for example) ''billiards'' as well given a search term of ''billiard''.

If no parameters are given, the name of the article is passed as the search string. Note that this may or may not be desirable with disambiguated article names (if the Wikipedia disambiguator is sensible, however, it may actually help refine the search results){{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#ifeq: {{{free|¬}}} | ¬
| .
| .

If {{para|free|yes}} is added, Google News will only return free search results; please note that this can exclude many valuable sources simply because they have a small (or sometimes not so small) price tag; this parameter is best used when linking to source material in discussions, rather than when using the template near the top of an article's talk page as a source-finding resource.
}}

== Search engines ==
The template includes links to the following search engines: {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if: {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>find sources multi/linkinfo|1={{{introlink|}}}|2=se_description}} |
* {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>find sources multi/linkinfo|1={{{introlink|}}}|2=se_description}} }}{{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>#if: {{<includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly>find sources multi/linkinfo|1={{{link1|<noinclude>link1</noinclude>}}}|2=se_description}} |

{{documentation|content=

This template is used to provide documentation for templates that use the {{tl|find sources multi}} meta-template. It is called by {{tl|find sources multi/template}} if the {{para|doc}} parameter in that template is set to <code>yes</code>. Template shortcuts can be set in this template - just add your template name and the desired shortcut code in the same style as the examples at the top, and additional categories can be specified on the /doc subpage of the individual templates. If further customization is desired, it is possible to [[WP:SUBST|substitute]] this template - see below.

== Substitution ==

This template can be substituted onto the /doc subpage of the individual templates based on {{tl|find sources multi}}. Substitution has the advantage that the documentation can be altered freely, but the disadvantage that updates and improvements to this template will no longer have any effect. To substitute this template, take the following steps:

First, on the template page, remove the {{para|doc}} parameter (or set it to {{para|doc|no}}). Then use the {{tl|documentation}} template like this:

<pre><noinclude>

{{documentation}}

</noinclude></pre>

Then, create the /doc subpage with the following content, filling in the parameters as relevant:

<pre>{{subst:find sources multi/doc/template
|inarticle = 
|free = 
|introlink = 
|category = yes 
|link1 = 
|link2 = 
|link3 =
|link4 =
|link5 =
|link6 =
|link7 =
|link8 =
|link9 =
|link10 =
|link11 =
|link12 =
|link13 =
|link14 =
|link15 =
|link16 =
|link17 =
|link18 =
|link19 =
|link20 =
}}</pre>

== Parameters ==

* <code>inarticle</code> - If the template being documented has set the {{para|inarticle}} parameter, please set {{para|inarticle|yes}}.
* <code>free</code> - If the template being documented uses the {{para|free}} parameter, please set {{para|free|yes}}.
* <code>link1</code> - The link code for the first link. This parameter is required.
* <code>link2</code>, <code>link3</code> ... <code>link20</code> - The link codes for the other links.

Here are the possible values for the link parameters:
{{find sources multi/doc/linktable}}

The examples on this page use {{tl|find sources multi/all}}, and the search engine descriptions are taken from {{tl|find sources multi/linkinfo}}.
