Citations for the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6)
Each IPCC Assessment Report (AR) consists of four volumes: the reports of the three Working Groups (WG1, WG2, and WG3), and a Synthesis Report (SYR). Each volume has a Summary for Policymakers (SPM), and various other chapters and annexes. One of the ways to cite these sources is using short-cite (given below) as "in-line citations", which link to the full citation. These short-cites can include page number(s), or section headings to make verification easier. These are usually placed in notes (perhaps with other citations or comments) using the  tags. Note that these pre-formatted short-cites (as revised in 2019) do not use the authors' or editors' last names, as that was found to be confusing, and cumbersome to implement.

This can be: Filled-in templates for these citations (and the corresponding in-line citation) can be found below; just click on "Show" for the appropriate report or chapter for a complete, ready-to-copy full citation.
 * one full citation for each chapter (annex, etc.) cited, which links to
 * a full citation for the volume (Working Group or Synthesis report) containing the chapter.

The IPCC full-citations can be kept in a "Sources" section (or "IPCC sources" sub-section if there are more than a few citations); see WP:IPCC citation for details.

The displayed result of these templates can be seen at the test page. Actual usage can be seen Climate change.
