I'm happy to help with creating or reviving an online tool, if a spec is made.

Which OL tool are you talking about? Do you have a link?

Sorry, should have included that ;-)

On any edition page, e.g.:
https://openlibrary.org/books/OL7183411M/The_adventures_of_Tom_Sawyer

down at the bottom right there are links to various citation formats. Click on the Wikipedia Citation and you get:

{{Citation
    |isbn = 0553211285
    |publication-place = New York
    |title = Adventures of Tom Sawyer
    |url = http://openlibrary.org/books/OL7183411M/The_adventures_of_Tom_Sawyer
    |author = Mark Twain
    |edition = The adventures of Tom Sawyer
    |publication-date = 1920
    |id = 0553211285
    }}

I often remove the URL, which is to the OL page, not the book, and the id, which is a duplicate of the ISBN. Oddly, the edition property, above, doesn't seem to have caused me problems, but I now see that it is a duplicate of the title. That has to do with the attempt to divide OL into Works and Editions (kind of FRBR-ish, but also very similar to BIBFRAME's Work and Instance).
