Template:National Heritage List for England/doc

This template is used to provide a link to the Historic England — National Heritage List for England (NHLE) database (https://HistoricEngland.org.uk/listing/the-list/) for a specified listed building or object in England.

For listed buildings, the database records all those in England, and is updated as changes to entries are made, and new listings are added. The similar Images of England (IoE) list records a snapshot of those listed at the turn of the millennium, and provides a photograph, but uses a different index number, and is not updated with list changes since it was created.

The database also contains the following registered historic locations or sites in England:
 * Historic Parks and Gardens
 * Scheduled monuments
 * Protected wrecks
 * Historic battlefields
 * World Heritage sites

Required parameter

 * num: the 'list entry number' from the database (not the same as the IoE number used by Images of England).

Optional parameters
Additional information for the title:
 * desc: additional text description such as the name of the building or site; useful if there are several listed objects in an article. If this parameter is not used, default text 'Details from listed building database' will be displayed instead.
 * grade: to display the Grade of a listed building; enter as II, II* or I. Only appears if desc is also used.
 * author: defaults to Historic England, but can be changed to another name if desired
 * author-link: defaults to Historic England, but is not set by default if author is set to something other than Historic England
 * date: the date provided by Historic England; can be a full or partial date
 * year: the year provided by Historic England; use of date is recommended, see Template:Cite web/doc for proper usage
 * orig-year: the year information was first provided by Historic England; only appears if date or year is also used
 * access-date: the date a Wikipedia editor retrieved information from the Historic England list database.
 * mode: defaults to cs1; set to cs2 to provide consistency with citation style 2, as produced by
 * postscript: controls the closing punctuation for the citation; defaults to a period ; for no terminating punctuation, set to none, however using cs2 does this automatically
 * fewer-links: use yes to remove repeated wikilinks where the template is used more than once in an article
 * ref: defaults to author (Historic England) and the Historic England List Number, but can be reset to any value
 * short: use yes with num to produce an external link with just the list number shown; yes suppresses the display of other parameters.

All Cite web parameters are available.

If a short citation is required (not to be confused with short) and one of the harv templates or sfn is used then  will link the short reference to the long one. For example,  produces  that links to the 'Church of St Michael and All Angels' example above. This is different from the standard use of the that links using the parameters 'author' and 'date' or 'year'.

Some articles (e.g. Kingston upon Hull) have multiple entries. yes can be used to remove the repeated internal wikilinks from any additional and subsequent instances of the template: displays as:
