Category:CS1 errors: invalid parameter value

This is a tracking category.
It is used to build and maintain a list or lists of pages—primarily for the sake of the lists themselves and their use in article and category maintenance. It is not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme.
More information:
  • This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set.
  • These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience.
  • These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or subcategories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).
  • Typically, tracking categories are automatically populated by templates invoked in pages or by the MediaWiki software (see Special:TrackingCategories for an overview of the latter).
Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty!
This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a tracking category for CS1 citations that have parameter value errors.

Invalid |<param>=<value>

To function properly, some parameters are limited to a certain set of acceptable values. This error message indicates that a parameter has been assigned a value that is not a member of the parameter's defined set of acceptable values.

Letters in values must all be in lower case, as shown below.

To resolve this error for the parameters in the table, use an appropriate value.

Support for |ref=harv is withdrawn because cs1|2 templates now automatically create the CITEREF anchor value that |ref=harv controlled. To resolve this error, remove |ref=harv.

Pages with this error are automatically placed in Category:CS1 errors: invalid parameter value.
