I have a 1957 book here with "Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 56-13477". How should this be mangled to fit the template? --] (]) 09:32, 21 October 2018 (UTC) |

:<s>p.lccnLink in ] tries to split the identifier, but this identifier is purely numeric so there's nothing to split, and it fails.

Greetings, While updating articles I have noticed some articles with existing ''<nowiki>{{authority control}}</nowiki>'' line & a blank line above. When I add "Subject bar" line, the authority control line now shows. This is not a big issue, but just curious why this happens? For example: ] article. Why auth.control lines do not display when there is existing a.c. content? Regards, ] (]) 15:17, 6 December 2018 (UTC) |

I have created ], a visual arts specific version of the general ]. I have implemented it at ] as a demonstration: it reduces the clutter of 36 or so AC links to a much more reasonable 15, keeping the arts-specific ones (like RKD or Balat) and the most useful general ones for enwiki (Worldcat, LoC, ...), but removing the less interesting ones (non-English ones simply repeating the biographic basics, or things like Musicbrainz). The selection of what to include and what to exclude may need refinement, this is done in ] (a spin-off of ]). |

All you need to do is replace, at the bottom of an article, <nowiki>{{Authority control}}</nowiki> with <nowiki>{{ACArt}}</nowiki>, et voilà! ] (]) 10:08, 29 January 2021 (UTC) |

I have now replaced this template with a new version, not with its own module but as a wrapper with suppression of the unwanted links. |
|
|
|
|
|
*Advantages: all improvements to the main template are automatically used in the ACArt template as well, no separate maintenance and module needed. |
|
|
*Disadvantages: |
|
|
**In Preview, you get a long list of very ugly error messages caused by the link suppression, which are unwanted for this wrapper |
|
|
**When a new ID is added to the main template, it will need to get suppressed at the ACArt template. |
|
|
|
|
|
For now, this looks to me like the better solution compared to a separate template. If we continue to go this route, with more separate wrappers for separate groups, it may be useful to think of yet another solution, where you e.g. have again one template, with one "switch" parameter, like <nowiki>{{Template:Authority control|type:Art}}</nowiki>. That would again put all maintenance in one spot, but may make for a very heavy to process template. |

Other solutions and improvements welcome of course! ] (]) 15:05, 29 January 2021 (UTC) |
