Hello, has there been any update on the inclusion of RERO+ as a database for Switzerland? All the previous authorities (and many updated ones) are available on the new catalogue website with an MEF ID was the new identifier. Please see the example of Winston Churchill, where his RERO+ MEF ID is 7885724. Thank you and kind regards, Spinster300 ( talk) 13:00, 26 February 2024 (UTC).

Uzume has made some changes to Module:Authority control/config and Module:Authority control/auxiliary without any discussion. I'm opening this thread to give him/her the chance to explain and justify these changes — Martin ( MSGJ · talk) 14:54, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

. It also still uses a Lua pattern to ensure the rest of the string is exactly eight decimal digits. I would be interested to hear if you find any false positives or negatives with the "check digit" algorithm. I personally think Wikidata should redefine
Bibliothèque nationale de France ID (P268) to just be the eight digits and use something else to generate the identifier links (including the check digit) but that is a different problem needing a bigger solution (since it affects nearly 700k Wikidata items and numerous templates and thereby even more pages at several WMF sites that are consuming the Wikidata items). —
