The Great War On This Day and its associated Index.
Sources: Various material contemporary with the war have been used to compile
Text has been transcribed from two out-of-copyright sources: Chronology of the War (1918-1920), and History of the Great War – Principle Events 1914-1918 (1922). Spelling of place names are original to British use at the time. Some typos have been altered or corrected for consistency. Duplicate or identical events between these sources have been amalgamated; as a result the date and wording may differ to the original texts.
Images come from scans or photographs of original sources, Wikimedia Commons, and the Imperial War Museum's online collections under the IWM Non-Commercial Licence. Attribution is given separately to the latter and do not come under the general licence of this site.
Advisory note: The information in these sources may not accurately represent up-to-date histories, present-day spelling of place names, or geographical boundaries. In some instances the language used may appear sexist or derogatory to the modern reader, and in rare cases, images may depict distressing scenes.

The {{Sources}} template is used extensively throughout the site on pages included in the The Great War On This Day and Great War Index projects. Its purpose is to inform the reader of the primary sources used for these projects and to give an advisory note regarding the accuracy of the information, and in some cases, how some readers may find some images distressing due to the nature of the subject.
All pages within these projects should have {{sources}}
contained within the <noinclude>...</noinclude>
tags. This is specifically to prevent it showing up via transclusion on other pages, namely the Main Page where calendar events are refreshed daily.
There are no user parameters.
The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Sources/doc.
