This template is used to create infoboxes for papal proclamations.

Basic usage

{{Infobox encyclical
 | title                = 
 | type                 = <!-- defaults to encyclical -->
 | language of title    = 
 | translation of title = 
 | subject              = 
 | Papal coats of arms  = 
 | signature date       = {{Start date|yyyy|mm|dd|df=y}}
 | pope                 = 
 | pages                = 
 | number               = 
 | web_en               = 
 | web_la               = 
 | before               = 
 | after                = 
}}

The |type= parameter is used to set the type of papal proclamation. Use one of the following values (defaults to encyclical):

• Apostolic constitution (values: ac, constitution)
• Apostolic exhortation (values: ae, exhortation)
• Apostolic letter (values: al, apostolic letter)
• Papal bull (values: b, bull)*
• Encyclical (values: e, encyclical)
• Motu proprio (values: m, motu proprio)*
• Papal brief (values: pbr, papal brief)
• Letter (values: let, letter)

*Note: if a type of document is only in the form of a bull or of a motu proprio, it is the type of document and not the form which should be indicated; e.g. Unigenitus is an apostolic constitution in the form of a papal bull so it must be indicated as apostolic constitution, whereas Unam sanctam is simply a bull and so must be indicated as papal bull.
