Template:Worldcat id

Works by or about in libraries (WorldCat catalog)

Add the template to the "external links" section of the article to create a link to the Worldcat page associated with the article's title. To use this template, first do a worldcat identities lookup. Enter the person's name (e.g, Samuel Phillips.) This will often lead to a list of possible matches. Select the correct link (e.g., "Phillips, Samuel 1752-1802") and click on it. This will lead to the correct page on worldcat. The id is the string after the last slash in the URL, e.g., lccn-n85-221132. Now, fill in your template as follows:
 * or
 * to display a name other than the article name
 * to display a name other than the article name
 * to display a name other than the article name

If "Works by or about" does not make sense, then use a different worldcat template:
 * yields
 * Works about Foo in libraries (Worldcat catalog)
 * yields
 * The world's libraries have a strange definition of foo. Neverheless, you can research foo in libraries. (Worldcat catalog)
