![]() | 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.

This category lists pages that have templates from the {{vcite journal}} family that use |doi=
, where a digital object identifier doi value has been specified but then recognized as inactive. These are similar to the CS1/CS2 errors collected in Category:CS1 maint: DOI inactive.
This may represent:
- An incorrectly specified DOI. In this case, the DOI in question should be corrected.
- A DOI awaiting entry into the CrossRef system. In this case, the DOI will soon be active, and a bot will remove the doi-broken-date parameter next time it checks the transcluding article. The article will be correctly listed in this category but does not require further editing until the DOI becomes active.
- A system error with the DOI resolving agency. This should be reported to the DOI resolver (e.g. Crossref) so that it can be fixed - preferably including a link to the journal article claiming the link as further information.
- Publisher issues. A new publisher may have taken over a journal, or a publisher may not yet support DOIs, despite assigning them. In this case, the DOI may not produce a usable hyperlink but still serves as a permanent identifier for the article in question. It should be marked using the
|doi-broken-date=
parameter. The article will then be correctly listed in this category until the DOI becomes active. - The DOI has changed, such as the Archives of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine which changed its DOIs when it changed publishers.
- Internal use only DOI. The American Medical Association, for example, assigns a DOI to all of its journal articles, but many of these are only in the META tags on the web pages and Crossref will not resolve these. Since these can be found with an Internet search engine and might eventually resolve they should be left in the citation.
