 | The link in this template goes to a redirect page instead of to the article that is the target of the redirect. This redirect link is intentional so that links using the template are distinguishable from links to the article on the Special:WhatLinksHere/ISSN page. |
This template produces a simple, standardized link from a International Standard Serial Number (ISSN). The ISSN is rendered using much of the same code that renders |issn= in Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2 templates except that this template can be used to render multiple ISSNs.
Usage
This template accepts these parameters:
|idn=– a ISSN identifier; the|idn=parameter name is not required but is recommended for clarity when the template has multiple ISSNs|link=– accepts a single valueno; for use when the 'ISSN' prefix in the rendering should not be linked|plainlink=– accepts a single valueyes; suppresses the 'ISSN' prefix in the rendering|leadout=– defines the conjunction between the last two identifiers in the rendered list; defaults to,
The basic form is:
For multiple ISSNs:
To unlink the prefix:
{{ISSN|0028-0836|link=no}}→ ISSN 0028-0836
To suppress the prefix:
{{ISSN|0028-0836|plainlink=yes}}→ 0028-0836
To use and between the last two identifiers in the rendered list:
When this template emits an error message for a valid (working) ISSN, use the accept-as-written markup ((..)) to suppress the error message.
Tracking categories
- Category:Ignored ISSN errors – maintenance category for
{{ISSN}}templates using the accept-as-written markup((..))to suppress an error message - Category:Pages with ISSN errors – error category for
