Uptake edit
It would be good to show evidence of this being used by public-facing web sites, such as a library or retailer. Andy Mabbett 16:40, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:ISAN EG1.jpg edit
Image:ISAN EG1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Check Digits edit
From the article: "However, a printed ISAN designed for human reading always begins with the ISAN label, appears with hyphens to separate the number into more manageable groups of digits, and adds two check characters (made up of the letters A–Z) to help identify transcription errors. The resulting number appears as: ISAN 0000-0001-8947-0000-8-0000-0000-D"
The text specifies the check characters are [A-Z], but the example shows a digit (8). The sample code I've seen for calculating these digits describes them as hexadecimal, but some example ISANs have obviously non-hex characters. It looks likely that the range is actually [0-9A-Z].
Copies of the spec are not freely available, so I'm not able to work out where the errors lie! Can anyone shed light on this, and update the article accordingly? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.16.224.18 (talk) 11:46, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
