This is a list of suggested alternatives to use when an unknown parameter is encountered by a citation template. When an unknown parameter is found within a citation template an error message is generated, and when possible the software makes a suggestion for what the user may have meant by consulting this list of common mistakes and typos.

Each entry takes the form: ['bad input parameter'] = 'suggested parameter to use'

The bad input parameter will have been transformed to lower case before checking this list, so all input forms on this list should be written in lowercase.

Here we use Lua patterns to make suggestions.  The form is ['pattern'] = 'correct',

Lua patterns are not regex though they are similar.  The escape character is '%', not '\'.  For more information about
lua patterns, see: Extension:Scribunto/Lua_reference_manual#Patterns

Patterns should probably always include the '^' and '$' anchor assertions to prevent a partial match from incorrectly
suggesting the wrong parameter name.  For instance, the pattern 'a[utho]+r' matches 'author' in the no-longer-supported
parameter |author-separator= so the code suggests '|author='; the same pattern also matches the no-longer-supported
parameter |separator= (returning 'ator') so again, the code suggests '|author='.

One capture is supported, typically the enumerator from an enumerated parameter (the '6' in |author6=, etc.)  The value from the
capture replaces $1 in the 'correct' value.

	['^ac+es+ ?d?a?t?e?$'] = 'access-date',
	['^a[utho]+r$'] = 'author',
	['^a[utho]+r(%d+)$'] = 'author$1', -- enumerated
	['^pu[blish]+ers?$'] = 'publisher',
