Template:Cite NYC bus/doc

This template produces citations for the schedules of NYC bus routes.

Standard usage
For example,  produces the following entry in the reference list:

Multiple routes on one schedule
In this case, the display parameter should be used.

For example,  produces the following entry in the reference list:

The MTA file name is s040cur.pdf, so we use M34, not M16 in the first parameter.

Non-standard URLs
For URLs that don't follow the standard naming scheme, the url parameter can be used. In this case, the display parameter must be included and the first parameter can be omitted.

All +Select Bus Service+ schedules must be cited using the url method, as well as QM16, QM18, and QM21.

Other information
If you wish, the accessdate and effective parameters also exist, useful when citing now out-of-date schedules and schedules for discontinued routes.

A subpage of this template, cite NYC bus/busco, is the list the template checks against for local routes operated by MTA Bus Company. If a route is modified, removed, or created, please update this template.
