Template:Retracted
(Retracted)
Usage[edit]
This template is used to mark citations to retracted works. Using
Smith, J. (2008). "Foobar." ''Journal of Barfoo''. '''5''':12. {{retracted}}
gives
- Smith, J. (2008). "Foobar." Journal of Barfoo. 5:12. (Retracted)
If the retracted article is intended to be cited, for example while discussing the role of the publication in a controversy, then use
{{retracted|intentional=yes}}
which gives
- Smith, J. (2008). "Foobar." Journal of Barfoo. 5:12. (Retracted)
If it's not intended to be cited, the citation should be removed per WP:RS, and the content of the article updated accordingly.
If a link to the retraction is desired, you can use
Smith, J. (2008). "Foobar." ''Journal of Barfoo''. '''5''':12. {{retracted|pmid=21685368|intentional=yes}}
which gives
The retraction identifier links |bibcode= (for bibcodes), |doi= (for DOIs), |pmc= (for PMCIDs), and |pmid= (for PMIDs) are supported. Failing that, {{Retracted|https://...}} is also supported for a generic web link.
The template works with citation templates too, for example
*{{cite journal |last1=Kanadia |first1=RN |last2=Cepko |first2=CL |date=1 February 2010 |title=Alternative splicing produces high levels of noncoding isoforms of bHLH transcription factors during development |journal=Genes & Development |volume=24 |issue=3 |pages=229-34 |doi=10.1101/gad.1847110 |pmid=20080942}} {{retracted|pmc=3127434|pmid=21685368|intentional=yes}}
gives
- Kanadia, RN; Cepko, CL (1 February 2010). "Alternative splicing produces high levels of noncoding isoforms of bHLH transcription factors during development". Genes & Development. 24 (3): 229–34. doi:10.1101/gad.1847110. PMID 20080942. (Retracted, see PMC 3127434, PMID 21685368)
Do not use this template in the fields of citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, as the HTML markup will be rendered in the metadata for that field.
Cleanup and tracking categories[edit]
Pages containing this template will be placed in the category Category:Articles citing retracted publications. Pages containing unintentionally citations will instead be placed in Category:Articles unintentionally citing retracted publications. Ideally this last category should be empty.
