Usage
Required parameter

To obtain the value for this parameter:
- Search for and open the required report on the Nomis site, for example "Silverdale", at the
Nomis Local Area Report search page - The code is included in the body of the report and also in the URL. In this example the URL for Silverdale parish is:
https://www.nomisweb.co.uk/sources/census_2001_ks/report?compare=30UH027
- Copy the code (in this case
30UH027
) and add it to the template.

|mode=cs1
; set to|mode=cs2
to provide consistency with citation style 2, as produced by{{citation}}
. - postscript: controls the closing punctuation for the citation; defaults to a period (
.
); for no terminating punctuation, set to|postscript=none
, however using|mode=cs2
does this automatically. - fewer-links: use

to remove repeated wikilinks where the template is used more than once in an article. - ref: defaults to author (Census 2001) and the id, but can be reset to any value.
- short: use
|short=yes
with|id=
to produce an external link with just the list number shown;|short=yes
suppresses the display of other parameters.
Examples
{{NOMIS2001|id=30UH027}}
displays as:
- UK Census (2001). "Local Area Report – (30UH027)". Nomis. Office for National Statistics.
{{NOMIS2001|id=30UH027|short=yes}}
displays as:
{{NOMIS2001|id=30UH027|title=Silverdale Parish}}
displays as:
- UK Census (2001). "Local Area Report – Silverdale Parish (30UH027)". Nomis. Office for National Statistics.
{{NOMIS2001|id=30UH027|title=Silverdale Parish|accessdate=14 January 2025}}
displays as:
- UK Census (2001). "Local Area Report – Silverdale Parish (30UH027)". Nomis. Office for National Statistics. Retrieved 14 January 2025.
{{NOMIS2001|id=1170215054|title=Silverdale Parish|accessdate=14 January 2025|mode=cs2}}
displays as:
- UK Census (2001), "Local Area Report – Silverdale Parish (1170215054)", Nomis, Office for National Statistics, retrieved 14 January 2025
If a short citation is required (not to be confused with |short=
) and one of the {{harv}} templates or {{sfn}} is used then {{harv|Census 2001|record id}}
will link the short reference to the long one. For example, {{harv|Census 2001|1170215054}}
produces (Census 2001 & 1170215054) that links to the 'Silverdate Parish' example above. This is different from the standard use of the {{harv}} that links using the parameters 'author' and 'date' or 'year'.
Some articles have multiple entries. |fewer-links=yes
can be used to remove the repeated internal wikilinks from any additional and subsequent instances of the template:
{{NOMIS2001|id=30UH027|title=Silverdale Parish|ref=none}}
{{NOMIS2001|id=30UH027|title=Silverdale Parish|ref=none|accessdate=|fewer-links=yes}}
displays as:
- UK Census (2001). "Local Area Report – Silverdale Parish (30UH027)". Nomis. Office for National Statistics.
- UK Census (2001). "Local Area Report – Silverdale Parish (30UH027)". Nomis. Office for National Statistics.
