About this template

Template:Citation/identifier is a helper template to Wikipedia's citation system. This template ties in with other templates like Template:Citation/core. Specifically, it helps render how identifiers like ASIN, ISBN, and JSTOR are rendered in references, producing a consistent look throughout the encyclopedia.
