This is a tracking category for CS1 citations that have malformed |display-<names>= parameters.
Invalid |<names>=<value>
These error messages are emitted when Module:Citation/CS1 identifies citations that use one or more of the |display-<names>= parameters with an invalid assigned <value>. An invalid assigned <value> is a number that is greater than or equal to the number of <names> in the associated name-list or it is non-numeric text that Module:Citation/CS1 cannot recognize as a form of the keyword etal.
To resolve this error, do one of the following:
- Remove the
|display-<names>=parameter from the citation (typically because "et al." is not appropriate in the citation) - Change the
<value>of the|display-<names>=parameter such that it is less than the number of<names>in the name-list (thereby truncating the displayed list to the number) - Change the
<value>of the|display-<names>=parameter toetal, which will cause "et al" to display after the last<name>.
Pages with this error are automatically placed in Category:CS1 errors: display-names.[a]
