Kai,
In order for mediawiki to support this format, someone needs to
find the document that specifies it. It doesn't comply with the ISBN
standard format as documented at
http://www.isbn-international.org/en/manual.html. Simply showing that
online booksellers use another format doesn't help write the mediawiki
code that would spot one of these; clearly the number has some
standard format, and we need to know what that format is.
