From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 


{{ISBN missing}} is an inline cleanup template for flagging a reference that is missing the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) of the source document. The template adds Category:Pages with missing ISBNs to the article.

Usage

{{ISBN missing|date=June 2024}}or{{ISBN?|date=June 2024}}

  1. Place {{ISBN missing|date=June 2024}} outside the citation template
  2. red-outlined triangle containing exclamation point Do not place it in the |isbn= parameter of a Citation Style 1 template. The inclusion of text other than the digits of an ISBN in |isbn= corrupts the citation's COinS metadata and the citation's link to Special:BookSources.

How to fix the problem flagged by this template

Do not remove the {{ISBN missing}} template without fixing the problem in one of the following ways:

For a reference formatted via a Citation Style 1 template, use its ISBN parameter:
|isbn=X-XXXX-XXXX-X
For a free-form reference:
  1. Add the ISBN as appropriate to the citation, preferably using the {{ISBN}} template, or...
  2. Better yet, convert the citation to a Citation Style 1 template.
For a reference formatted via a Citation Style 1 template:
1. Use its ISBN parameter to state explicitly that the ISBN does not exist:
|isbn=<!-- ISBN unspecified --> (you must use HTML <!-- --> comment tags to hide the message from the citation processing software)
2. Place {{No ISBN}} outside the citation template
For free-form reference, just add {{No ISBN}} to the end of the citation.

If you remove the {{ISBN missing}} template without fixing the problem in one of the above ways, someone else will come along later and flag the reference with {{ISBN missing}} again!
