I wonder if this is something that Wikidata could
(eventually) handle?
I have a brain-dump about how this might work, in my user pace at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Pigsonthewing/Citations_-_the_future
For me, one of the exciting things about this is being able to quickly
and confidently see every article in which an author is cited (see
mockup, linked form that page), or in which a specific work is cited.
Thanks for pointing out the way "Trove"
provides a
citation tool for easy use on (English) Wikipedia articles.
I asked them to incorporate this into the Trove system
in 2009
I supposed you might have had a hand in it. Nice work!
I imagine you would have had less success had you asked for a
different template for each language; the same would apply with
Google.
Over the years this has proved to be hugely beneficial
to Trove
(a service of the National Library of Australia), and has generated
thousands of deep-links to their catalogue
That's a great selling point!
