Category:CS1 maint: extra punctuation

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 citation templates that have parameter values that contain extraneous trailing punctuation or a leading equals sign. For example, |agency=Agency, has an extraneous comma. The test that adds articles to this category is currently limited to checking for trailing commas, colons, or semicolons (,:;) and the leading equal (=). HTML entities, because they end with a semicolon (e.g. quote marks, ", which are rendered by the cite templates as ") are also flagged as false positives by this error check.

Extraneous punctuation should be removed. This category should be added to pages only by Module:Citation/CS1.

Pages with this condition are automatically placed in Category:CS1 maint: extra punctuation.
