Description

This is a template for referring to book titles in HTML5, using the cite tag and optionally the book's Ontology page.

It has two slightly contradictory goals:

To leave "fewer things to remember" for new users who may be novices to HTML5 but just got done learning wikitext.
To make long lists of miscellaneous works more intuitive by allowing the cite tag to semantically specify what medium the work is. This template can be called as either cite, book, film, or game, and it will be the same template.
