==<span id="vancouver">Vancouver style error</span>== <section begin=vancouver_help_text />{{help desk}}<span class="error">Vancouver style error</span> This error is reported for citations that use {{para|name-list-format|vanc}}. '''Vancouver style''' restricts author or editor names to the Latin alphabet. For the purposes of this test, [[Module:Citation/CS1]] defines the Latin alphabet as the letters defined in the Unicode Latin character sets: :C0 Controls and Basic Latin<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf |title=C0 Controls and Basic Latin |website=Unicode |access-date=2015-04-19}}</ref> (0041β005A, 0061β007A) :C1 Controls and Latin-1 Supplement<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0080.pdf |title=C1 Controls and Latin-1 Supplement |website=Unicode |access-date=2015-04-19}}</ref> (00C0β00D6, 00D8β00F6, 00F8β00FF) :Latin Extended-A<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0100.pdf |title=Latin Extended-A |website=Unicode |access-date=2015-04-19}}</ref> (0100β017F) :Latin Extended-B<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0180.pdf |title=Latin Extended-B |website=Unicode |access-date=2015-04-19}}</ref> (0180β01BF, 01C4β024F) This error is also reported when a corporate or institutional author is listed in {{para|vauthors}} without proper delimiters. Corporate authors should be listed this way: :{{para|vauthors|First Surname FM, Surname AB,<wbr> {{green|((}}Corporate or institutional<wbr> Author{{green|))}}, Lastsurname XY}} This error is also reported when more than two initials are used: in case of more than two initials, list only the first two. While normally correct, sometimes the names listed on a PMID page contain errors when the author surname has a lowercase nobiliary particle. For example, {{PMID|17726700}} lists Magnus von Knebel Doeberitz as Doeberitz Mv which is not correct. This author's name should be listed as {{para|vauthors|von Knebel Doeberitz M}}.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK7282/box/A33081/ |title=Other surname rules |website=National Center for Biotechnology Information}}</ref> Certain punctuation will be flagged as an error. For example, Unicode U+2019, right single quotation mark, causes an error because it is not a member of the Latin character sets identified above: {{para|vauthors|Van{{red|β}}t Veer M}}. Replace this character with the straight (or typewriter) apostrophe: {{para|vauthors|Van{{green|'}}t Veer M}}. To resolve this error, Romanize author and editor names.<ref>{{cite book |last=Patrias | first = K |editor-last=Wendling |editor-first=D |location=Bethesda |publisher=National Library of Medicine |date=2007 |chapter=Names in non-roman alphabets or character-based languages |chapter-url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK7258/box/A48818/ |title=Citing Medicine: The NLM Style Guide for Authors, Editors, and Publishers [Internet]. |edition=2nd |name-list-format = vanc}}</ref> Romanizing can result in two-letter initials, for example, the Greek letter 'Ξ' Romanizes to 'Th'.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/romanization/greek.pdf |title=Greek |website=Library of Congress}}</ref> When author names have this kind of initial, Module:Citation/CS1 can't know if this kind of initial is a typo or a legitimate Romanized character so it will emit the Vancouver error. To suppress the error after determining that the two-character initial is correct and not a typo, treat the name as if it were a corporate name by wrapping it in doubled parentheses: {{para|vauthors|..., Tatarinov IuS, ...}} β {{para|vauthors|..., ((Tatarinov IuS)), ...}} Similarly, Chinese hyphenated given names may appear in PubMed listings. For example: 'Wang Hsien-yu' may be listed on PubMed as 'Wang Hy' which will result in a Vancouver error. When this occurs, and upon verification that such names are correct, wrap them in doubled parentheses. Pages with this error are automatically placed in {{#ifeq: {{FULLPAGENAME}} | Category:CS1 errors: Vancouver style | Category:CS1 errors: Vancouver style | [[:Category:CS1 errors: Vancouver style]]}}.<ref group="lower-alpha" name="categories" /><section end=vancouver_help_text />
