This Citation Style 1 template is used to create citations for articles or chapters in edited collections such as encyclopedias and dictionaries, but more generally any book or book series containing individual sections or chapters written by various authors, and put together by one or more editors. However, it is not intended for journals or magazines, which are issued periodically and have volume and (usually) issue numbers, and should be cited with {{Cite journal}} or {{Cite magazine}}; nor is it intended for conference proceedings, which should be cited with {{Cite conference}}.
Some citations to tertiary sources such as encyclopedias are problematic; see Wikipedia:Identifying and using tertiary sources.
