This is the third and final post on errors beginning with Illl. Note the double asterisk. Truncation marks vary among automated systems. OhioLINK instructs:

Use * for right-hand or embedded truncation of 1-5 characters.
Examples: environment* gentle*n
Use ** for right-hand-only truncation of any number of characters.
Example: gender ident**
Use ? for right-hand or embedded truncation of a single character.
Example: duck?
The * and ? truncation characters must have at least 2 characters to their LEFT.
Example: gentlem?n
