Format comparison with other Cite templates

This section is to compare the format of Cite web with other cite templates. An exact match is not expected or desired, but the outputs should have a somewhat harmonized styleauthor and coauthor information

• {{cite web |last=Doe |first=John |last2=Roe |first2=Richard |date=30 April 2005 |title=My favorite things part II |url=http://www.example.org/ |format=PDF |work=Encyclopedia of things |publisher=Open Publishing |pages=20–25 |accessdate=6 July 2005 }}

  {{Cite book}} does not support the |work= parameter and so in that example, the |work= and |title= parameters shown above were replaced by |chapter=My favorite things part II and |title=Encyclopedia of things.
