If you need a new identifier added to one of the authority lists, please create a new issue (the large green button on this page), using one of the preformatted templates.

If you need to look up the URN for a dingbat, you can use this chart.

(That is, start Pluto from a Julia terminal, using Pluto, then Pluto.run(), and open authlist-validator.jl).
