Module:Footnotes/whitelist/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Module:Footnotes/whitelist. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page. |
This Lua module is used on a very large number of pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this module should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages. The tested changes can then be added to this page in one single edit. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This page is a formatted list of anchor IDs and associated citation wrapper-templates. Because of Category:Harv and Sfn template errors#Current limitations and false-positive errors, short-cite templates, via Module:Footnotes, will emit false-positive error messages for citation wrapper-templates. The anchor IDs listed here instruct Module:Footnotes to suppress error messages for short-cite templates that link to the anchor IDs listed here so long as the associated citation wrapper-template is present in the article. This is an imperfect system that will allow false-negatives because this mechanism will suppress valid error messages in the absence of a full-cite target. Adding an anchor ID and matching template to this list will suppress all no target error messages for that anchor ID / template pair.
Do not include disambiguation letters in whitelist entries. In other words, use "CITEREFSmith2018" in this whitelist even when the cite template generates "CITEREFSmith2018a".
