Usage

[edit]

Normal usage

[edit]

{{Universities and colleges in Fooland category header}}

The typical usage requires no parameters because the template looks up the other data.

e.g. on Category:Universities and colleges in the United Kingdom, no parameters are needed

The other needed data is:

  1. the parent location(s) in which the location is located. This is looked up by Template:Country2continent if the location is a country.

If the location is not a country, then the information must be provided.

Optional parameters

[edit]
  • |parentlocation1=Atlantis bypasses the lookup of the parent location (i.e. continent), and uses "Atlantis".
  • |parentlocation2=Lemuria bypasses the lookup of the parent location (i.e. continent), and adds a second continent: "Lemuria"
  • |tail=province is available for use when the location is a subdivision of the parent location.
    e.g. on Category:Universities and colleges in California, use {{Universities and colleges in Fooland category header|parentlocation1=United States|tail=state}}
  • |diagnose=yes turns on diagnostics, which may help if the template doesn't work as expected
