Editing Template:Harvard citation documentation (section)

===No author name in citation template===
Some sources do not have a single author with a last name, such as a magazine article or a report from a government institution. There is no consensus (in Wikipedia or among citation styles) about how to format author–date citations for works that do not have a specific author. Several choices are:
# For a newspaper or periodical, you may use the name of the paper and the date.
# For a publication by an institution, use either:
## The initials of the institution
## The name of the institution
# Alternatively, some style guides recommend using the title of the article.
# Other style guides recommend using "Anonymous" or "Anon."
An article should adopt one of these styles consistently. Using {{para|ref|{{tl|harvid}}}} in the citation template can handle these cases.
