ទំព័រគំរូ:Sic
[មកត្រឹម]
This template simplifies insertion of the "[sic]" notation, which is used where a textual error, or unexpected but intended text that may appear to be an error, has been faithfully reproduced from the original source. Note that MOS:QUOTE says: "trivial spelling and typographic errors should simply be corrected without comment... unless the slip is textually important."
- By default, it links to the article Sic for the benefit of readers, but this is disabled if the
|nolink=y
- Additional unnamed parameters can be used to obfuscate spelling errors in quoted material in the wiki-text of a page, to help prevent automated or semi-automated correction by bot or human editors, which (although done in good faith) would be undesirable. In these cases, split the intentionally misspelled word or other character string into two parts and use them as the first two parameters of the template, and replace the original with the template:
He said "{{sic|Irrega|rdless}}..."will display asHe said "Irregardless [មកត្រឹម]..."
- The template can be used with a
|?|?He said "{{sic|?|Irrega|rdless}}..."Examples of use cases:- The quoted source might not be available online, or not without a paid subscription, etc.
- A quoted passage contains a spelling error but is ambiguous as to whether the statement was originally printed this way (in which case [sic] may be appropriate), or spoken aloud (in which case the typo should be corrected).
...his April 1992 interview with the Dolly Llama {{sic}}...- yields:
- ...his April 1992 interview with the Dolly Llama [មកត្រឹម]...
- yields:
...spokesperson stated that "rescue efforts have been suspnded {{sic|?}} until further notice"...- yields:
- ...spokesperson stated that "rescue efforts have been suspnded [មកត្រឹម?] until further notice"...
- This is used because the context does not make it clear whether the spelling error was made by the spokesperson (in a written statement), or by a reporter (listening to the spokesperson speak).

Controlling display (|nolink=y|hide=y
[កែប្រែ]|nolink=y|hide=yTo suppress the link but keep the [sic]:
*[http://www.example.org/document_1.htm "{{sic|Conc|encus|nolink=y}} can Change!"]- yields:
Use {{sic|hide=y|word or phrase}} to avoid the display of sic altogether but still get the other benefits of the template. As with obfuscation, above, replace the original material that is now inside the template with the template itself, and the nolink and obfuscation features can be combined: He said "{{sic|hide=y|Irrega|rdless}}..."
Note: It is pointless to specify both nolink and hide, since one is a display feature, but the other disables display.
Documenting the problem
[កែប្រែ]If the misspelling is an unusual one, it may be helpful to include an "expected" parameter: {{sic|incorrect word or phrase|expected=expected word or phrase}}. This has no effect on the rendered page, but may assist later editors.
