QSA is an abbreviation for Queensland State Archives.

Usage

edit

The Queensland State Archives organises its records into a hierarchy:

  • Items are individual documents
  • Series are sets of similar items
  • Agencies are the organisations that create the series

This template creates a {{cite web}} citation to individual Item records in the online catalogue of Queensland State Archives, a useful searchable reference source on Queensland Government agencies. It covers local government authorities, schools, prisons, hospitals, cemeteries, etc.

This template should not be used for Agency or Series in the QSA catalogue. Instead use Template:Cite QSA Agency or Template:Cite QSA Series.

Parameters

edit
  • There are three unnamed parameters
  1. Agency ID number. Mandatory. It can be found in the Agency ID field in the entry or at the end of the URL.
  2. Agency name. Mandatory. It can be found in the Title field in the entry.
  3. Access date. Optional but recommended. Usually today's date or whenever you looked at the entry.

For example, the entry for the [1] (a Rate and Valuation book for the Coorparoo Shire Council) can be referenced using:

{{Cite QSA Item|654061|Rate and Valuation Book|20 August 2013}}

resulting in:

"Item ID654061, Rate and Valuation Book". Queensland State Archives. Retrieved 20 August 2013.

Or without an accessdate

{{Cite QSA Item|654061|Rate and Valuation Book}}

resulting in:

"Item ID654061, Rate and Valuation Book". Queensland State Archives.

  • Error checking is not done at all. Specifying an incorrect ID will result in a link to a non-existing record.
