This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cite Instagram.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Instagram posts are usually unacceptable as sources. Instagram posts and other self-published material may be acceptable if the conditions specified at WP:SPS, WP:SOCIALMEDIA, or WP:INSTAGRAM are met. For further information, see the Misplaced Pages:Verifiability policy and the Misplaced Pages:Identifying reliable sources guideline.

This template is a Citation Style 1 wrapper template based on {{Cite web}}. For centralised Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1.

{{Cite instagram}}

This template is used on approximately 3,900 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

A template for citing content posted on Instagram.

Usage

Copy a blank version to use. Almost all parameter names are supported only in lower case (some initialisms, such as |isbn= have upper-case aliases like |ISBN=, which are acceptable for use). Use the "|" (pipe) character between each parameter. Unused parameters may be deleted to avoid clutter in the edit window. Some samples on this documentation page may include the current date. If the date is not current, then purge the page.

Required parameters only, in horizontal format
{{Cite Instagram \|user= \|postid= \|title= \|date=}}

Full parameter set in horizontal format
{{Cite Instagram \|author= (or \|last= and \|first=) \|author-link= \|user= \|postid= \|date= \|title= \|script-title= \|trans-title= \|language= \|location= \|access-date= \|link= \|url-status= \|archive-url= \|archive-date= \|ref=}}

Full parameter set in horizontal format

{{Cite Instagram |author= (or |last= and |first=) |author-link= |user= |postid= |date= |title= |script-title= |trans-title= |language= |location= |access-date= |link= |url-status= |archive-url= |archive-date= |ref=}}

Note: When known, the author's real name should be specified in the |author= parameter (or |last= and |first=). If their real name is not known, then the post is probably not an acceptable usage of a self-published source.

Examples

{{Cite Instagram |user=instagram |postid=CHDzGgCs568 |date=2 November 2020 |title=Happy Halloween |access-date=9 November 2020}}

@instagram (2 November 2020). "Happy Halloween". Retrieved 9 November 2020 – via Instagram.

Error detection

The parameters |user=, |postid=, |title=, |date= are required. If omitted or left blank, errors will be reported. For example:
{{Cite Instagram |title=I'm an incomplete citation!}}
"I'm an incomplete citation!" – via Instagram. {{Cite Instagram}}: Missing or empty |user= (help); {{Cite Instagram}}: Missing or empty |postid= (help); {{Cite Instagram}}: Missing or empty |date= (help)
The post URL depends on |postid=; if it is missing, the URL defaults to https://www.instagram.com/
Templates are checked for |ref=harv, which is an error. The |ref= parameter must use {{harvid}} in the value.
The template also checks for parameters that are unsupported (e.g. misspellings of parameter names).
Errors are tracked in Category:Cite instagram templates with errors

TemplateData

This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Cite Instagram in articles based on its TemplateData.
