'''{{NAMESPACE}}:{{BASEPAGENAME}}''' displays a uniformly formatted external link to an [[Australian Football League]] (AFL) player's profile page on the [http://afltables.com/ AFL Tables] website. It is intended for use in the [[Wikipedia:External links|external links]] section of an article.

== Usage ==
; Unnamed parameters
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | <var>ID</var> <nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | <var>ID</var> | <var>NAME</var> <nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>

; Named parameters (id, name)
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | id= <var>ID</var> <nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | id= <var>ID</var> | name= <var>NAME</var> <nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>

; Named parameters (ref, alt)
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | ref= <var>ID</var> <nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | ref= <var>ID</var> | alt= <var>NAME</var> <nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>

; Using Wikidata property
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | name= <var>NAME</var> }}</code>
: <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{BASEPAGENAME}} | alt= <var>NAME</var> }}</code>

== Parameters ==
The first parameter ("id" or "ref") is the exact folder and page name used in the [[URL]] at the AFL Tables website. This is in the form of '''FirstInitial/FirstName_LastName''', such as '''B/Brendan_Fevola''' for http://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/B/Brendan_Fevola.html. Where multiple players have the same name, the usual system is to add a number, such as [http://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/N/Nathan_Brown0.html N/Nathan_Brown0], [http://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/N/Nathan_Brown1.html N/Nathan_Brown1], or [http://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/N/Nathan_Brown2.html N/Nathan_Brown2].

The second parameter ("name" or "alt") is an optional alternative parameter to specify a player's name. If not given it defaults to the Wikipedia article name, without any disambiguation such as (footballer). This parameter is only needed if you want to display text other than the article name.
