Usage
A template to cite UK primary and secondary legislation, as provided by legislation.gov.uk. This is a straightforward wrapper of {{Citation}} (CS2 by default).
To do
- Clean and sanitize. The doc was a nightmare to figure out.
- Eventually move this to a proper CS1|2 module wrapper
- ELI support
Implementation outline
{{Citation

|year= ("1978" or "1948" if omitted)
|chapter= (if type=act, "30" if omitted)
|number= (if type=si, "1" if omitted)
|section= (for SIs use "article", "regulation" or "rule" as appropriate; "section" will construct a functional link, but the wording will be incorrect)
|schedule= (set to "0" for a blank after "sch." text, where there is only one schedule)

UK Act of Parliament
{{Cite legislation UK |type=act |year= |chapter= |act= |section= |date= |accessdate= }}
The template defaults to the Interpretation Act 1978:
- "Interpretation Act 1978", legislation.gov.uk, The National Archives, 1978 c. 30
UK Statutory Instrument
{{Cite legislation UK |type=si |year= |number= |si= |article= (or |regulation= or |rule=) |date= |accessdate= }}
The template defaults to the Statutory Instruments Regulations 1947:
Examples
{{Cite legislation UK
| type = si
| si = The Equine Identification (England) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018
| year = 2018
| number = 1409
| regulation = 1
| access-date = 2022-07-08
| quote= These Regulations come into force 21 days after the day on which they are made
}}
"The Equine Identification (England) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018: Regulation 1", legislation.gov.uk, The National Archives, SI 2018/1409 (reg. 1), retrieved 2022-07-08, These Regulations come into force 21 days after the day on which they are made
{{Cite legislation UK
| year = 2018
| number = 1418
| article = 3
| type = si
| si = Gorchymyn Cefnffordd yr A40 a'r Ffordd Gyswllt (Cyffordd Travellers' Rest, Sir Gaerfyrddin) (Gwahardd Cerbydau a Therfyn Cyflymder 30 MYA Dros Dro) 2018 [The A40 Trunk Road and Link Road (Travellers' Rest Junction, Carmarthenshire) (Temporary Prohibition of Vehicles and 30 MPH Speed Limit) Order 2018]
