This is a tracking category for CS1 citations that have malformed |display-<names>=
parameters.
Invalid |<names>=<value>
These error messages are emitted when Module:Citation/CS1 identifies citations that use one or more of the |display-<names>=
parameters with an invalid assigned <value>
. An invalid assigned <value>
is a number that is greater than or equal to the number of <names>
in the associated name-list or it is non-numeric text that Module:Citation/CS1 cannot recognize as a form of the keyword etal
.
To resolve this error, do one of the following:
- Remove the
|display-<names>=
parameter from the citation (because "et al." is not appropriate in the citation) - Change the
<value>
of the|display-<names>=
parameter such that it is less than the number of<names>
in the name-list (thereby truncating the displayed list to the number) - Change the
<value>
of the|display-<names>=
parameter toetal
, which will cause "et al" to display after the last<name>
.
Pages with this error are automatically placed in Category:CS1 errors: display-names.[a]
