 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Sfn whitelist. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template produces no output. The {{sfn}} and {{harv}} families of short-cite templates can emit error messages identifying short-cite templates that cannot find the target anchor to which they are supposed to link.
The short-cite templates cannot always locate anchor IDs that do exist – for the technical details, see Category:Harv and Sfn template errors. These unseen anchor IDs cause the short-cite templates to emit false-positive error messages. The purpose of {{sfn whitelist}} is to hold a list of valid anchor IDs so that the short-cite error message is suppressed.
