The ISBN may have been incorrectly labelled invalid, but we have (to our surprise) found several examples where the publisher has put an invalid number on the book (see talk page for examples).

This template accepts three parameters; one unnamed and two named: |1= (unnamed parameter) – (required) the ISBN to be formatted |separator= – (optional) accepts one predefined keyword: space; when |separator=space, the rendered ISBN elements are separated using a space character; for any other value, this template renders with hyphen separators
Entries with invalid ISBNs that are nonetheless printed in a book can be tagged with {{Listed Invalid ISBN}}. Also, if particular ISBNs in a list of ISBNs are known to be invalid, this can be indicated by providing corresponding invalid1=yes to invalid9=yes parameters in the {{ ISBN }} or {{ ISBNT }} templates.
For example | isbn = {{Listed Invalid ISBN|123-456-7890-123}} is incorrect use. Usage This template should only be used in limited cases when an editor knows that the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) printed in a source publication is invalid.
