Parameters
Currently all parameters are required



Detailed instructions

 * 1) Copy and paste the syntax above into the Mises Wiki article
 * 2) Go to http://Mises.org and search for the Circle Bastiat blog article you want (say, "Paul vs. Paul: the Video"; you'll see a list of all parts of the site that point to that title.)
 * 3) Hover your mouse pointer over the hyperlinks and find the one that has "bastiat.mises.org/" in the URL:
 * 4) Once you find that page, you'll need to copy the string that comes after ".org/".
 * 5) You can click that link and go to the page and and copy the number from the address bar in your browser, or alternatively you can right-click (or ctrl+click on a Mac) on the hyperlink and "Copy link location" to your clipboard.
 * 6) Copy only that string (here, we're using " ")
 * 7) Replace "ID" with the string and "Title" with "Paul vs. Paul: the Video" (note: there is no need for the quotes) and "Author" with Daniel J. Sanchez (note: you can hyperlink this part, preferably to the Mises Wiki article for the author) and "Date with April 2012"
 *  *  results in:

If you still have any doubts or questions about the use of the template, you can ask at User talk:Pestergaines (or User talk:John James).
