===<span id="citation_missing_title">Citation without a title of any form</span>=== {{help desk}} If you get the error <span class="error">Missing or empty <code style="color:inherit; border:inherit; padding:inherit;">|title=</code></span>: This error means that the citation is missing a "title". Simply provide the title in the citation to correct this error. (This error also occurs when an editor uses {{tlx|citation}} but intends to use {{tlx|citation needed}} in the source editor.) *<span class="error">Missing or empty <code style="color:inherit; border:inherit; padding:inherit;">|series=</code></span></div> This error occurs for {{cs1}} and {{cs2}} templates when all of {{para|title}}, {{para|trans-title}}, and {{para|script-title}} are omitted or left blank. At least one of these title parameters must be provided for each citation. {{tlx|cite episode}} will show this error if {{para|series}} is omitted or left blank (even if a {{para|title}} is provided). Sometimes this error occurs because an editor has used a CS1|2 citation as a [[Help:Shortened footnotes|shortened footnote]] when {{tlx|sfn}} or one of the {{tlx|harv}} family of templates would have been more appropriate. This error also occurs when an editor used {{tlx|citation}} but intended to use {{tlx|citation needed}}. To resolve this error, provide a value for {{para|title}}, {{para|trans-title}}, and/or {{para|script-title}} or replace the CS1|2 template with a more appropriate template. If you are listing a periodical or an issue of a periodical in a bibliography rather than within {{tag|ref}} tags, {{tlx|List journal}} may be more appropriate. Pages with this error are automatically placed in {{#ifeq: {{FULLPAGENAME}} | Category:Pages with citations lacking titles | Category:Pages with citations lacking titles | [[:Category:Pages with citations lacking titles]]}}.<ref group="lower-alpha" name="categories" /><section end=citation_missing_title_help_text />
