Hey Daniel, It looks like you used the worldcat template [1]: {{worldcat id|id=lccn-n79-21614|VIAF=82088490}} which doesn't actually do anything with the VIAF parameter. Instead (or as well) you'll want to use the Authority control template: {{Authority control|PND=118559796|LCCN=n/79/21614|VIAF=82088490}} After I did that and the crawl ran again it showed up at linkypedia [3]. Thanks for giving it a try! //Ed [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Worldcat_id [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Authority_control [3] http://linkypedia.info/websites/23/pages/ On Wed, May 25, 2011 at 9:17 AM, Lovins, Daniel <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > That's really cool, Ed.
