After the meeting today, I've spent awhile studying and using the WorldCat template. As you suspected, Thomas, I DO like it. Since I am creating many pages that are similar, with similar bibliographies, I use a lot of cut and paste. But I can see that when a unique page is created with a unique bibliography, the template would save time and be less likely to have typos in it, assuming I get the number right! Are you looking for mare specific input? What would you like to know from me? [[User:Jbparker|Jbparker]] 23:48, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

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)

:If I recall correctly, different editions of a book or magazine would have a different ISBN. In any case, ''editions'' is not allowed in the URL for ISBN or ISSN. So, that is the intent of the template. [[User:Thomas Lerman|Thomas Lerman]] 18:04, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
