Template:Cite patent

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

{{{1}}} patent no. {{{2}}}


General patent template for citing patents or patent applications from any country in the esp@cenet database.

Enter the two letter country code (eg US or EP) as the first parameter and the patent number or patent application number (without any intervening commas) as the second parameter.

Add the word "application" (without quotes!) as a third parameter if you are citing a patent application rather than a patent.
