Template:Queensland Timetables/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Provides a citation for frequently-used timetables used by public transport providers in Queensland, Australia.

Usage

[edit]

This template creates a {{cite web}} citation to individual timetables for transport providers including Translink (Queensland) and Queensland Rail.

Because the URL for these timetables can change and because there are frequent uses of the same citation for some transport services in many articles, it is more efficient to update the URL in just one place (this template).

Railway line timetables are cited in numerous articles on railway stations on that line, so generally should be in the template

Bus timetables are listed if a citation is used in one or more Railway Station or Busway station articles. This way there is only one central point to update details and dates for all such bus timetables in this template without the need to update the station articles.

Parameters

[edit]
  • There is one unnamed parameter
  1. Name/number of route

The routes currently supported are named or numbered (for the purposes of use in this template):

If used in an external link, this template may be used without the surrounding reference tags.

If the service requested is not included in this template, the citation created will be in Translink bus format using the service requested as route number. Articles containing such citations are listed in Category:Pages using Queensland Timetables with unknown route (3) as a possible error.
