From outset
It turns out that this is consequent on use of the Visual Editor Cite tool and an Edit filter (979 (hist · log ) ) tracks articles quoting these Journal articles.
Hello User:AllyD . It's possible that the edit filter 979 could be set to 'disallow', but that would also catch people who merely rearranged an article containing the bad reference. Instead, maybe the Visual Editor cite tool could be repaired. Anyone who hasn't seen the problem yet could look at this link for explanation. If this only happens for single-digit PMIDs maybe the tool could be modified to not accept any PMIDs less than 10. In recent months the filter 979 is reporting almost one error per day, so the table on this page is about to get bigger. EdJohnston (talk ) 02:58, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
And see also phab:T198456 , raised in 2018 and classed as low-priority. AllyD (talk ) 07:14, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
The phab:T198456 item is now resolved, so any residial problem references should be a closed population. AllyD (talk ) 08:21, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
