I would like to add the code |certweek={{{certweek|}}}|position={{{position|}}} between the current certmonth and region values; {{Cite certification}} has recently been changed to support certweek and position. Phil roc (c) 15:20, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please add {{{certyear}}} to {{#tag:ref...|name=...{{{type}}}{{{certyear}}}CertRef}}? In some rare cases like Greatest Hits (Waylon Jennings album)#Certifications, it creates cite error. Error explanation: The album got RIAA Gold certificate on 1979 and then got a 5x Platinum in 2002. But both cite certification template calls for those two certificates have the name "United StatesWaylon JenningsGreatest HitsalbumCertRef" for the ref tag, causing cite error for different citations with the same name.

Here is another example of this issue. Jeeputer ^Talk 20:54, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Both examples were fixed by [this edit] and [this edit] using the |refname= parameter to change the reference name. So a new |certyear= parameter doesn't appear to be needed. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 23:58, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
