Some ISBNs may still have been printed correctly elsewhere in the same book or corrected in later editions; if further research shows that to be the case (and that the new ISBN still refers to an edition with the same information on the same pages), then the invalid# parameter should be moved or {{Listed Invalid ISBN}} should be replaced with {}.
Note that the ISBN hyphenation rule-base is a living document. This is a maintenance category of articles with invalid ISBNs. It is often included by means of the template {{Please check ISBN}}.

The template takes as argument a valid ISBN and yields the formatted version of that ISBN. Any existing hyphens in the ISBN are ignored, whether or not they are correctly placed: {{format ISBN|97-8-1-57181655-9}} → 978-1-57181-655-9 {{Format ISBN}} is intended to be substituted so that the template call in wikitext is replaced with the ...
