Template:Wdtable row/river1

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 List of rivers in Cornwall 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
Label	length (P2043)	origin of the watercourse (P885) qualified by coordinate location (P625)	mouth of the watercourse (P403) qualified by coordinate location (P625)	image (P18)

Example

The Wikidata QID for River Lynher is Q7337612. Typing the following:

{{Wdtable row/river1|qid=Q7337612}}

produces

Name	Length	Origin of the watercourse	Mouth of the watercourse	Image
River Lynher	34 km (21 mi)	Bodmin Moor	Hamoaze

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 List of rivers in Cornwall 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
