Script removes citation book publisher
editI am checking into the answer to your question, why the script would remove the book publisher. Prhartcom (talk) 15:53, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. It's not a big deal, just a minor inconvenience that piqued my curiosity. Mindmatrix 18:31, 12 February 2015 (UTC)
- The developer of the script has now prevented its code from making this sort of change in the future. Thank-you for raising the matter to our attention. You were quite right; removing the publisher is appropriate in some cases (i.e. the publisher of The New York Times is The New York Times), but for books we all agree that that the publisher is useful encyclopedic information. Cheers. Prhartcom (talk) 14:24, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
