Once you’ve entered the code, check it by previewing. The author’s name should be in blue, showing that the link leads to his or her biography. If it’s red, check your spelling. I have entered all authors and editors, so this should be working correctly. Next, scroll to the bottom of the document. You should see the correct category listed (see '''Fig 2'''); we’ll discuss more categories below.

Editors remediating '''book reviews''' should use the {{tl|BookReview}} template instead of the more general {{tl|Byline}} template, as it is specifically designed to capture and display essential bibliographic details about the book under review. Unlike {{tl|Byline}}, which only identifies the author of the review, {{tl|BookReview}} provides a standardized format for citing the book’s title, author, publisher, publication date, format, and price, along with the reviewer’s name and links to purchase the book or read the full review. This helps ensure consistency across entries and improves usability for readers seeking publication information at a glance. See {{tl|BookReview}} for instructions on this template’s use. | |||
