-==Description==
-This template '''should not''' be used directly. It provides a level of indirection for implementation of other templates, such as [[Template:ISSN]] and [[Template:Infobox Journal]]. Its only aim is to generate a link for searching a publication by its [[International Standard Serial Number|ISSN]].
-;Example
-<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}|0028-0836<nowiki>}}</nowiki> renders as:
-{{{{PAGENAME}}|0028-0836}}
-==See also==
