Template:Cite Hong Kong case/doc

Usage
A template for Hong Kong court case citations. Mainly for citing unreported cases. All parameters are optional, though in practice there's no point in using this template unless you at least specify "id".

Parameters

 * litigants : List of litigants, such as "Sun Er-jo v. Lo Ching and others". If a WikiQueer article using this exact string exists, a link will automatically be created.  Alternately, if an article exists but another name is desired for display, a wikilink may be specified; i.e., " This v. That ".
 * id : The database id on judiciary.gov.hk. This is not a standard form of legal citation and is not displayed; it is merely used to generate the URL for the text of the judgment.
 * hklii : The database id on the Hong Kong Legal Information Institute website. This is not a standard form of legal cititation and is not displayed; it is merely used (along with list and date) to generate the URL for the text of the judgment. This parameter is optional; if it is used, the link to the HKLII will appear in parentheses after the link to judiciary.gov.hk.
 * list : the abbreviation for the law list to which the case belongs (e.g., , etc.). If not given but "number" is given, it will be displayed as "Case No.". Known values will have a tooltip displayed with abbr explaining what the abbreviation means; for the individual values, see the subtemplates for each of the courts (district court cases are not yet handled):
 * Court of First Instance: Cite Hong Kong case/HKCFI
 * Court of Appeal: Cite Hong Kong case/HKCA
 * Court of Final Appeal: Cite Hong Kong case/HKCFA
 * Family Court: Cite Hong Kong case/HKFamC
 * Lands Tribunal: Cite Hong Kong case/HKLT


 * number : the case number
 * year : the year in which the case was originally filed (as opposed to the date of the hearing or judgment)
 * date : the date on which the judgment was issued (as opposed to the date the case was filed or heard)
 * text : if none of list, number, year are specified, this overrides the link text from the default "text"
 * pinpoint : a reference to a specific paragraph of the judgment. If "id" is provided, the link will point directly to the HTML anchor for that paragraph.
