=== Purpose ===
To link to articles in the [[Wikisource]] 1885-1900 edition of the ''[[Dictionary of National Biography]]''.

=== Usage ===
<code><nowiki>{{DNB poster|DNB Article Name}}</nowiki></code>

or

<code><nowiki>{{DNB poster|DNB Article Name|Display Name}}</nowiki></code>

=== Example ===
{{DNB poster|Munro, Hector}}
{{DNB poster|Munro, Hector|Hector Munro}}
<code><nowiki>{{DNB poster|Munro, Hector}}</nowiki></code>

This result is displayed in the top box to the right. If the last-name-first format looks too ugly, use:

<code><nowiki>{{DNB poster|Munro, Hector|Hector Munro}}</nowiki></code>

This result is displayed in the bottom box to the right.

=== Usage tips ===
When you put this template on a Wikipedia article, please be kind to the regular Wikipedians who are working on those articles. This should be placed at the bottom of the article, usually the External links section. Sometimes it simply won't fit within the Wikipedia article at the bottom, so you may have to use some judgement: think about using the in-line version, {{tl|DNB Cite}}. If the article is about a Wikisource author, it will usually be better to just put a link in the "Works about" section of the author page in Wikisource using [[Wikisource:Template:DNB Link]].
