:The reason your attempts to use {{tl|WorldCat}} failed. First you typed the name of the template with a lower case "c". Apart from the first letter, article and templates are case sensitive. Your second attempt used the {{tl|tlx}} template which is used in wikitext to help display the code to type when using a template. --[[User:CottrellS|Steve]] 16:06, 13 August 2009 (UTC) | :The reason your attempts to use {{tl|WorldCat}} failed.

:::DSammy, how about examples? The {{tl|tlx}} template would not be used when accessing templates, it is just used for displaying what a template looks like. All templates are case sensitive. The examples in the {{tl|WorldCat}} template were copied and pasted from what is displayed, so I do not know how they could have "failed" for you. Could you please provide examples?

Currently unless {{{2}}} is either given as ''isbn'' or ''issn'' the word ''editions'' is added to the output URL. Is this the intended outcome? From the links given in the notes section, I assume not, but maybe they've not been updated. --[[User:CottrellS|Steve]] 18:11, 13 August 2009 (UTC) | Currently unless {{{2}}} is either given as ''isbn'' or ''issn'' the word ''editions'' is added to the output URL.
