Indeed the arXiv of the Waisberg paper does not include those values, but the article published at MNRAS does. 21 Andromedae (talk) 20:56, 17 July 2025 (UTC)
- Wow, its like they rewrote half the paper! And published it about a year after the preprint. Very odd. Lithopsian (talk) 13:07, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Reflink on T Coronae Borealis
[edit]Hey there! Extremely trivial thing about [1]: I noticed doi:10.3847/25c2cfeb.e7358267 {{doi}}: unflagged free DOI (link) links to the entire issue instead of the specific abstract being cited, which is why I added a direct "deep link" to the abstract itself, as the cite template docs suggest for |url=. Lemme know what you think. --Slowking Man (talk) 19:32, 10 September 2025 (UTC)
- That's an odd one. Although it presents itself as a journal, the "papers" are only abstracts for presentations made at the "meeting". It looks like it should really be covered by cite conference; although there is a journal, conference abstracts are often published in things that look a lot like journals. The doi should come out, it is near-useless for actually locating the relevant abstract and it will keep getting tagged with doi-access=free and then the url will look redundant (Citation Bot might even take the url out, depending on which way the wind is blowing). The bibcode links directly to (a copy of) the abstract and that page links directly to the real abstract. NASA ADS doesn't link directly to a pdf download, but then there isn't anything to download beyond the abstract. The downside is that the template doesn't wikilink the title for bibcodes, only for dois. Using an explicit url is a bit of a last resort because of linkrot, but it is probably the only way to get the title linked to the abstract if that's your goal.
- As an extra, the OCLC and ISSN links are probably even less help than the doi so they should probably come out too. That would make it doubly or triply obvious what to click on to see the crucial information. I notice that this article uses OCLC and ISSN extensively but they are not very helpful for cite journal, linking only to a generic page for the journal rather than something that would be useful in a reference.
- I've just taken out the doi fields for now, see if it looks any better that way. Lithopsian (talk) 20:33, 10 September 2025 (UTC)
Want to learn something from you
[edit]@Lithopsian Sir, I want to understand how to reference the Starbox table because everytime i do it happens some time other time it straight up show error. Example of that are EK Draconis and 47 Tucanae X9. And thanks for finding SIMBAD Page for 47 Tuc X9. Abdullah1099 (talk) 02:31, 20 September 2025 (UTC)
- Can you link to a revision of some page that shows the sort of errors you see? Or set it up in your sandbox? References in the starbox shouldn't really be any different from anywhere else, but if you miss a closing tag of some sort then the whole page will be mangled. Lithopsian (talk) 13:06, 21 September 2025 (UTC)
- Ok, I will see it Abdullah1099 (talk) 14:39, 21 September 2025 (UTC)
Just wanted to let you know that you don't need to note the entry with "multiple people" since it seems redundant to do so. Logoshimpo (talk) 06:55, 27 September 2025 (UTC)
