Optional parameters

 * author: Author

 * coauthors: allows additional authors
 * date: Full date of publication, preferably in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. 2006-02-17. May be wikilinked.
 * OR: year: Year of publication, and month: Name of the month of publication. If you also have the day, use date instead. Must not be wikilinked.

 * work: If this item is part of a larger work, name of that work.
 * publisher: Publisher, if any.
 * pages: pp. 5–7: first page and optional last page. This is for listing the pages relevant to the citation, not the total number of pages in the book. This is especially useful for PDF format, where the page can be linked to with the   anchor tagged on the end of the URL:
 * language: language of publication (don't specify "English" as this is the default).
 * doi: A digital object identifier for the document, such as  10.1038/news070508-7

 * archiveurl: URL of the archive location of the item (requires archivedate)
 * archivedate: Date when the item was archived (requires archiveurl), in ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD format, e.g. 2006-02-17. Must not be wikilinked; it will be linked automatically.
