Template:Dartsdatabase/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Instructions[edit]

  1. Go to http://www.dartsdatabase.co.uk/PlayerStats.aspx
  2. Select "Name Search" from the drop-down list
  3. Type in the name of the darts player you are trying to find
  4. Look at the URL and the end of it you will see playerKey=XXXX (XXXX being numbers)
  5. Copy only the numbers
  6. # Add to the external links section the text:
{{Dartsdatabase|id=###|name=XXX}}, where "###" is the number you've copied and "XXX" is the darts players name.

Optionally, you can leave out name=XXX and the template will use the page's name for the name, i.e. {{Dartsdatabase|id=###}}.

Example[edit]

  1. Searching for "Phil Taylor", you'll be able to find to this page: http://www.dartsdatabase.co.uk/PlayerDetails.aspx?playerKey=1
  2. Copy "1" and then write:
{{Dartsdatabase|id=1|name=Phil Taylor}}

The result is: Player profile on Phil Taylor from Dartsdatabase

Note that, since this will almost certainly go on the external link section, you should add a * before the template text to include it as a list item.
