- Haven't seen it, but ISBN 13 > ISBN 10. And I wish the both would hyphenate them. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 14:49, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
- I have considered adding hyphens to the bot, but it is a huge database to add and such. I use a different tool to add them. AManWithNoPlan (talk) 14:51, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
