==<span id="missing_name">Missing |last''n''= in Authors/Editors list</span>== <section begin=missing_name_help_text />{{help desk}}<div class="plainlist"> *<span class="error">Missing <code style="color:inherit; border:inherit; padding:inherit;">|last''n''=</code> in Authors list</span> *<span class="error">Missing <code style="color:inherit; border:inherit; padding:inherit;">|last''n''=</code> in Editors list</span></div> So that all authors and editors are listed in a rendered citation, {{cs1}} and {{cs2}} templates requires ''n'' in {{para|last''n''}} (and its aliases) to increment by 1 for each author or editor. This error message is emitted when there is a 'hole' in the numbering (an author list made up of {{para|author1}} and {{para|author3}} but without {{para|author2}} for example). The test will not detect a 'hole' that is larger than 1. It is presumed that when {{para|author''n''}} and {{para|author''n+1''}} are both not present, then the test has reached the end of the list. The error message uses a sort of shorthand: {{para|last''n''}} can refer to any of the legitimate {{para|author}} aliases in the authors list. Similarly, {{para|last''n''}} refers to any of the {{para|editor-last}} aliases in the editors list. To resolve this error, ensure that the numbering of the {{para|last''n''}} parameters increments properly. Pages with this error are automatically placed in {{#ifeq: {{FULLPAGENAME}} | CS1 errors: missing author or editor| CS1 errors: missing author or editor | [[:Category:CS1 errors: missing author or editor]]}}.<ref group="lower-alpha" name="categories" /><section end=missing_name_help_text />
