'''<nowiki>{{Thucydides|language|book|chapter|first section in range|last section in range}}</nowiki>'''
This template takes one mandatory argument, book and chapter, and one optional argument, line/range. Book and chapter is the book and chapter of a passage from Thucydides' ''History of the Peloponnesian War'', in the form book.chapter (e.g. 1.89). The template will produce a link to the cited book and chapter at the Perseus Digital Library at the University of Chicago. line/range may be a line number, a range of line numbers, or an ending chapter for the range begun by the book and chapter argument, or may be left blank. If it is to be a line number or range of line number. Thus:


Link to Greek text of [[Thucydides]]' ''[[History of the Peloponnesian War]]'' at the [[Perseus Project]] by book, chapter, and section number. Sections are sometimes called lines. Adding the last section in a range does not change the link URL, since pages on Perseus include only one section.

{{Thucydides|language|book|chapter|first section in range|last section in range}}

Link to Greek text of Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War at the Perseus Project by book, chapter, and section number. Sections are sometimes called lines. Adding the last section in a range does not change the link URL, since pages on Perseus include only one section.

The first parameter is language: gr or el for Greek, en for English.

Normally the template does not display the name of the author and the work.

{{Thucydides|en}} → 1.1 default book and chapter = 1.1
{{Thucydides|en|2}} → 2.1 book set; default chapter = 1
{{Thucydides|en|2|3}} → 2.3 book and chapter set
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|4}} → 2.3.4 book, chapter, and section set
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|4|5}} → 2.3.4–5 book, chapter, and section range set

Ref in any parameter except the first adds the name of author and work.

{{Thucydides|en|2|ref}} → Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War 2.1
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|ref}} → Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War 2.3
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|4|ref}} → Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War 2.3.4
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|4|5|ref}} → Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War 2.3.4–5

Shortref in any parameter except the first produces a shortened version, for cases in which the template is used in multiple refs.

{{Thucydides|en|2|shortref}} → Thucydides 2.1
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|shortref}} → Thucydides 2.3
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|4|shortref}} → Thucydides 2.3.4
{{Thucydides|en|2|3|4|5|shortref}} → Thucydides 2.3.4–5
