A template for citing the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
This template uses {{
cite journal}}
to render IUCN Red List citations. It will accept all parameters that are available to {{cite journal}}
though only a few are needed because this template will automatically provide a standardized set of parameters. Data for the parameters that editors need to provide can be found on the appropriate Red List page. The parameters that editors need to provide are:
|title=
; in the form e.T<digits>A<digits>
where <digits>
is one or more of the 0–9
digits{{cite journal}}
see
Template:Cite journal § Authors(errata version published in year)
(amended version of year assessment)
A handy tool for creating these templates is {{
make cite IUCN}}
.
This template emits a variety of error and maintenance messages.
|doi=
identifier|page=
identifier
|page=
and |doi=
the identifier portion of these parameter values has the form: T<digits>A<digits>
where <digits>
is one or more of the 0–9
digits. The template emits these error messages when the identifier portions of the parameter values do not match the expected form.{{
cite journal}}
for rendering. cs1|2 templates are designed to cite single sources. Because IUCN identifiers in |doi=
and |page=
point to individual pages in the IUCN database, all of the identifiers should match. The template emits these errors when the identifiers in a {{cite IUCN}}
template do not match. Caveat lector: regardless of the value assigned to |doi=
(or urls that link to IUCN through the dx.doi.org resolver), doi links are redirected to the most recent assessment, not to the assessment specified in the |doi=
parameter's value. For example, this template taken from
Springbok at the time of this writing:
{{cite IUCN |publisher=[[IUCN]] |title=''Antidorcas marsupialis'' |author=IUCN SSC Antelope Specialist Group |year=2016 |volume=2016 |page=e.T1676A115056763 |doi=10.2305/IUCN.UK.2016-3.RLTS.T1676A50181753.en |url=https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/1676/115056763}}
|page=
and |url=
have the same identifiers (to the current version of the assessment) but |doi=
has a different (older identifier) yet clicking the doi-link takes the reader to the current assessment. Rewriting the url value to use the identifier from |doi=
gives working link to the older assessment:
Maintenance messages emitted by this template are normally hidden. To make these maintenance messages visible, include the following text in your common CSS page ( common.css) or your specific skin's CSS page ( skin.css):
.citation-comment {display: inline !important;} /* display cite IUCN maintenance messages (also shows cs1|2 maint messages) */
{{
cite IUCN}}
validates the volume information in |volume=
against the volume information in |doi=
and compares these values with the content of |date=
or |year=
. These values should all be the same.{{cite IUCN}}
modifies these old-form urls into a new-form url using identifier data from |page=
or |doi=
, in that order if available. If an identifier is not available, the template will switch from the http
scheme to the https
scheme which will sometimes make a 'dead' old-form url work. When either of these changes is made, the template emits this message. Templates cannot save changes like this to the wiki-text so editors should evaluate the results of these url changes and modify the template's wiki text to remove the url and add |page=
(preferred) and/or |doi=
.{{cite IUCN}}
emits this message when |url=
holds a new-form url. This form of url is acceptable but, for consistency, should be removed so that the template may create the url from |page=
(preferred) and/or |doi=
.|url=
is not recognized as old-, original-, or new-form, the template emits this message. Commonly, such urls are doi links (https://doi.org/10.2305/IUCN...
or https://dx.doi.org/10.2305/IUCN...
). When |url=
holds a doi link, the parameter should be changed to |doi=10.2305/IUCN...
|url=
, |page=
, and |doi=
are all empty or omitted, {{cite IUCN}}
cannot construct a url. To resolve this issue add |page=
(preferred) and/or |doi=
.|title=
has either of these annotations:
(errata version published in year)
– remove this text and add |errata=year
(amended version of year assessment)
– remove this text and add |amends=year
