Template:Access level documentation

{{documentation|content= {{High-use}} {{Notice|This template should only be used on references input as free text. Access signaling has been integrated in the CS1/2 citation templates. See the relevant documentation. }} {{#switch:{{{1|{{lc:{{First word|{{PAGENAME}}}}}}}}}
 * closed=Use {{tl|closed access}} to indicate that a publication is not available under open access. Use {{tl|open access}} to indicate that a publication is available under open access.

Most closed-access publications are behind a paywall and require a personal or institutional subscription to access their full text. Others, including several studies, require purchase. Still, they can often be read an abstract or summary of a closed-access publication for free, even without a subscription. }} For citations input with citation templates such as {{tl|cite journal}}, use the relevant parameters (such as {{para|doi-access|free}}) to indicate the access level for a given identifier.
 * limited=Use {{tl|limited access}} to indicate manually that a publication is available to be read under certain conditions – a cap on daily views, a restriction to certain day or night times, a free trial, a required account, or providing the contents only to certain IP ranges/locales on behalf of the provider of the source, etc. For citations input with citation templates such as {{tl|cite journal}}, use the relevant parameters (such as {{para|url-access|limited}}) to indicate the access level. For publications that are available to read for free, use {{tl|free access}}.
 * free=Use {{tl|free access}} to indicate manually that a publication is available to be read freely. Use {{tl|open access}} for open access publications.
 * default
 * open=Use {{tl|open access}} to indicate manually that a research-based publication is available under open access (not merely that it's accessible without subscription etc.).
