{{selfref|This template is an in-line request '''for the place of a published source'''.}}<br />
<br />
{{Tl|Place missing}} is an inline cleanup template flagging a broken source citation that is missing the place of publication of the cited source.<br />
<br />
==Usage==<br />
{{Tld|Place missing|date&#61;{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}<br />
<br />
*With references in a {{cs1}} template ({{Tlx|Cite web}}, {{Tlx|Cite book}}, {{Tlx|Citation}}, etc.):<br />
**Place {{Tlx|Place missing<!--|{{grey|<nowiki>{{subst:DATE}}</nowiki>}}-->}} outside the citation template<br />
*With a free-form reference citation, just append {{Tlx|Place missing<!--|{{grey|<nowiki>{{subst:DATE}}</nowiki>}}-->}} to the end of the citation.<br />
<!--<br />
If you're really lazy, you can omit the optional date stuff: {{Tlx|Place missing}}<br />
<br />
If you're weird, you can do the date manually: {{Tlx|Place missing|{{grey|date&#61;{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}}}<br />

<br />
==How to fix the problem flagged by this template==<br />
'''Do not remove the template without fixing the problem one of the following ways.'''<br />
<br />
*If you ''know the place'', fill in the needed information, and remove the template. <br />
*;For a template-formatted citation, add the place:<br />
*#{{para|place|<var>XXX</var>}}<br />
*;For a free-form citation::<br />
*#Just add the place as appropriate to the format of the citation; or...<br />
*#''Better yet'', convert the entire citation to {{Tl|Cite journal}}, {{Tl|Cite news}} or some other {{Tl|Cite xxx}}-series template, as appropriate for the work in question.<br />
<br />
*If you ''know that no place was specified'' by the original source, as is common with older books, you have the following option.<!--???--><br />
*#Explicitly state that the location was unspecified:<br />
*#:{{para|Place|<nowiki><!-- Place unspecified --></nowiki>}} (''you must use HTML'' <code><nowiki><!-- --></nowiki></code> ''comment tags to hide the message from the citation processing software'')<br />
*:For free-form citations:<br />
*:::<code>No place specified.</code><br />
*:Do ''not'' use question marks.<br />
*:Do ''not'' leave the information blank and untag it, or someone else will just come along later and flag this with {{Tl|Place missing}} again!<br />
*:Do ''not'' use {{para|Place|none}}, {{para|Place|unknown}} or anything else vague; any implication other than that ''the source itself'' did not specify an ISBN is simply a signal to other editors to re-tag it with {{Tl|Place missing}}.<br />
<br />
*If you ''don't know'':<br />
*#Check the source, and add the necessary information, as above.<br />
*:Do ''not'' use question marks.<br />
*:If the source is a dead link, check archive.org for a backup copy (see your {{Tl|Citation}}/{{Tl|Cite xxx}}-type template's documentation for use of {{para|archiveurl}} and {{para|archivedate}} parameters). If no archive copy is available, use {{Tl|Dead link}} after the citation, but leave {{Tl|Place missing}} as well.<br />
