Category:Ignored ISBN errors

This is a tracking category. It is used to build and maintain a list or lists of pages—primarily for the sake of the lists themselves and their use in article and category maintenance. It is not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. More information: This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set. These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or subcategories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications). Typically, tracking categories are automatically populated by templates invoked in pages or by the MediaWiki software (see Special:TrackingCategories for an overview of the latter).

Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a tracking category for {{ISBN}} and {{SBN}} templates that use the Accept-this-as-written markup to indicate that although the given ISBN or SBN is malformed, it is indeed printed on the work. These malformed ISBNs can still be looked up via Special:BookSources in the usual way despite the prominent warning — it just means that fewer Find this book links will actually work (most libraries will work, most dotcoms won't).

This is not an error category, and pages in this category should be "fixed" only if the special markup has been misused (see Help:CS1 errors#bad isbn, which describes the only valid use of this markup).

Articles are listed in this category when {{ISBN}} or {{SBN}} uses the markup regardless of the validity of the ISBN. Pages in this category should only be added by {{ISBN}} or {{SBN}}.
