This is a documentation subpage for Template:Please check ISSN. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| Notice | This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see COinS in Wikipedia. |
Usage
This template is used to mark an International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) that may not be valid. For example:
{{issn|1234-56789}} {{Please check ISSN}}
The template does not produce any visible change to the article (unless the article is viewed in preview mode):
Rather, it adds the article to the hidden maintenance/tracking category: Category:Articles with invalid ISSNs.
In preview mode, it shows the warning message (Warning: Check ISSN). This warning is shown only in preview mode.
Parameters
The optional parameter |reason= simply provides a comment to explain why the ISSN may not be valid. For example:
{{issn|1234-56789}} {{Please check ISSN|reason=Too many digits.}}
