Template:Wdtable row/lvstation2

Template documentation

This template will retrieve certain data from Wikidata for use in a table in an article. It is a wrapper template for Module:Wikidata table function makerow, using predefined properties.

It was designed for use on Lightvessels in the United Kingdom but may also be used on other articles. (Search)

Usage

The data that is displayed in each column is as follows:

Column 1	Column 2	Column 3	Column 4	Column 5	Column 6
Label	location (P276) coordinate location (P625)	operator (P137)	located in or next to body of water (P206)	item operated (P121) qualified by point in time (P585)	Custom input

Example

The Wikidata QID for Outer Gabbard is Q109894482. Typing the following:
{{Wdtable row/lvstation2|qid=Q109894482}}
produces

Name	Location	Operator	Located in or next to body of water	Item operated	Column 6
Outer Gabbard	Outer Gabbard 51°59′23″N 2°4′38″E^[1]	Trinity House	North Sea	Light vessel no. 3, Jenni Baynton (from 1962 until 1965), Tyne III (1911)

Notes

The table caption, column headings, etc. need to be added manually.
Please be careful about making changes to this template, as corresponding changes will need to be made to the column headings on Lightvessels in the United Kingdom and any other article using it. (Search)

Overriding columns

It is possible to override or append to data values obtained from Wikidata in any column in the table.

To completely override column n with some custom content, use parameter cn=
For example, to replace column 5 with the number 1957 use c5=1957
To append some custom content to the end of column n use parameter cn+=
For example, to add a footnote to column 6 use c6+={{efn|This value is approximate.}}

Add named reference

If you define references in a list then you can cite one of these by using the parameter refname. This will add a reference to column 1 directly after the label. For example you can define a reference called Smith1 by using

{{reflist|refs=
<ref name="Smith1">reference</ref>
}}

Then use refname=Smith1
