No templates or magic words are necessary when using an [[ISBN]], [[OCLC]] number, or [[Digital object identifier|DOI]] as an identifier.  Instead of using the <code>id</code> field in these instances, simply use the appropriate field.  For instance, type <code>isbn=</code> followed by the number instead of <code>id=ISBN</code>.  Templates are available for other identification number types to be used in the ID field ({{tl|ISSN}}, {{tl|LCCN}}, {{tl|LCC}}, etc.) if these aren't available.  See also the complete [[#Description of fields|description of fields]].
