Category:CS1 errors: missing title

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a tracking category for CS1 citations without |title=, |chapter=, |article=, or |booktitle=, etc.

  • Missing or empty |title=
  • Missing or empty |series=

This error occurs for Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2 templates when all of |title=, |trans-title=, and |script-title= are omitted or left blank. At least one of these title parameters must be provided for each citation.

{{cite episode}} will show this error if |series= is omitted or left blank (even if a |title= is provided).

{{cite encyclopedia}} will show this error if |encyclopedia= has a value but |entry= (or another |chapter= alias) is omitted or left blank.

Sometimes this error occurs because an editor has used a CS1|2 citation as a shortened footnote when {{sfn}} or one of the {{harv}} family of templates would have been more appropriate. This error also occurs when an editor used {{citation}} but intended to use {{citation needed}}.

To resolve this error, provide a value for |title=, |trans-title=, and/or |script-title= or replace the CS1|2 template with a more appropriate template. If you are listing a periodical or an issue of a periodical in a bibliography rather than within <ref>...</ref> tags, {{List journal}} may be more appropriate.

Pages with this error are automatically placed in Category:CS1 errors: missing title.[a]
