  Iron emission is often a severe contaminant in optical-ultraviolet spectra of
active galaxies. Its presence complicates emission line studies. A viable
solution, already successfully applied at optical wavelengths, is to use an
empirical iron emission template. We have generated FeII and FeIII templates
for ultraviolet active galaxy spectra based on HST archival 1100 - 3100 A
spectra of IZw1. Their application allows fitting and subtraction of the iron
emission in active galaxy spectra. This work has shown that in particular CIII]
lambda 1909 can be heavily contaminated by other line emission, including iron
transitions. Details of the data processing, generation, and use of the
templates, are given by Vestergaard & Wilkes (2001).
