Editing documentation
How does one go about editing the documentation for this Template/Module? Specifically, in the middle column of the List of identifiers table on Template:Authority control/doc there are redlinks which could be replaced with good links, such as a link to Auckland Art Gallery and several others. Thanks in advance. UnitedStatesian (talk) 09:43, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
- That documentation is produced automatically. It is linked to Template:Q but there is no Wikipedia article for this. Perhaps you could create a redirect at Auckland Art Gallery online collection to a suitable section of Auckland Art Gallery, then it would work? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:52, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
UK Company IDs
For companies registered in the UK, we could usefully include Template:Wikidata property link and, using the same ID, a link to the entry in The Gazette.
For Aardman Animations, for example, these would link to [1] and [2] respectively.

- Template:Already done See the implementation of {{authority control}} at Hey Jude § External links. If the template is not displaying it is because the underlying external identifiers do not exist on the Wikidata item. See :Wikidata for authority control.
- If there are external identifiers that can be used for authority control, see if they are listed as properties on the Wikidata item. If they are not there but you know that they exist, please add them. Peaceray (talk) 17:02, 3 September 2026 (UTC)
