*'''editor''': Name of editor/editors. Do not Wikilink any values in the editor parameter but use ''editor-link'' instead. The template automatically displays "in" before the editor's name and "ed." after. This implies that the author is responsible only for part of the work and the editor responsible for the whole work. If, however, the author(s) and editor(s) are responsible for the whole work, then the ''editor'' parameter or its alternates described below should not be used. Instead, the editor(s) should be included in an ''author'' parameter with possibly "(ed.)" after the surname(s). | *'''editor''': Name of editor/editors.
