}}

=== Usage notes ===
* ''language'' - default is "English" but it is possible to put more than one:&nbsp; language=English, French (etc.).
* ''website'' - Just put the full URL; e.g., http://www.nature.com . This field automatically displays the name "Journal homepage."  If you wish to display a different name, or to include additional links, use parameters "link1" & "link1-name" ("link2" etc.).  For example, show "Online access":
<pre>
   | website = http://www.nature.com
   | link1 = http://www.nature.com/nature/current_issue.html
   | link1-name = Online access
</pre>
* ''title'' - The infobox displays the journal title at the top, wrapping to keep the infobox narrow. To custom-wrap a long title, insert "&lt;br/>". Otherwise, the title will auto-wrap after all words that fit:
<pre>
   | title = Canadian Journal of<br/>Earth Sciences
</pre>
* ''country'' - such as "Canada".

&nbsp;In general, any parameter can be custom-wrapped by inserting a "&lt;br/>" wherever needed.
