==Discussion on WP:Village Pump (idea lab)==
A discussion has been initiated at ]. All the volunteers are invited to share their comments. -- Pankaj Jain ''] <span class="plainlinks">(] '''·''' ] '''·''' )</span>'' 07:30, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

== Revisiting / reviving a previous suggestion for adding EIDR IDs to Authority Control ==

I would like to revisit and revive the previous request ] to add ] to Authority Control. Now at 1.8m records, the EIDR registry is becoming the largest ] ] standard for commercially available film and television works, with significant non-commercial registrations with archives such as the ], the ], the ] and many others. As a start, there are already 39141 EIDR IDs in ]. Thank you. ] (]) 04:03, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

== Query ==
Why doesn't this template display the Wikidata id? Wikidata is a identifier database as much as any of the others are. ] (]) 16:43, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

== ELN discussions ==

Discussions relating to this guidance (i.e. which may ultimately alter it if consensus can be found) are currently going on at ]. Please discuss there, not here. --] (]) 10:54, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

== LCCN formatting ==

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)
:This book?
:*{{Cite book |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/9742212 |title=Slave ship |last=Pohl |first=Frederik |date=1975 |publisher=Ballantine Books |isbn=0345245865 |location=New York |oclc=9742212}}
:Add the details to its wikidata item. ] using the "wikidata item" link at the left of the screen, ]. Add {{tl|Authority control}} at the foot of the article, ]. And, nothing...
:<s>p.lccnLink in ] tries to split the identifier, but this identifier is purely numeric so there's nothing to split, and it fails. The link works from the ], it looks like {{tl|Authority control}} only works for items with an alphabetic start to their LCCN, not for books which don't.</s> I'd be happy to be shown I'm wrong.
:Pinging {{u| Tom.Reding}} who may be able to shine some light. ] (]) 10:54, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
::My dumb mistake there. LCCN numbers for books are entered in ] & for people in ]. Only P244 items are picked up by the module. ] (]) 11:11, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Yes, that's the book ], thank you. --] (]) 13:13, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
