This template generates a full name for a magazine, given a name and an issue number (either a number or a date). This saves having to look up precise release dates of magazines, and should greatly speed up the creation of lists of articles.

Use

{{MagazineName|<name>|<issueno>|dateonly=}}

If "dateonly" is set to yes, only the release date will be returned.

Example

{{MagazineName|dmuk|12}}
