Template:Infobox station/Header GR/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template implements custom headers for the infoboxes of all railway, metro and tram stations in Greece.

Presently, the headers cannot be integrated into {{#invoke:Adjacent stations}}, due to the lack of support for Greek over English, variable backgrounds, outer borders, conditional icons, and conditional line colours.

Usage

[edit]
{{Infobox station/Header GR
| name_el =
| name    =
| mode    =
| mode_2  =
| line    =
| line_2  =
}}
  • |name_el= Station name in Greek, as it appears on the signage
  • |name= Station name in English, as it appears on the signage
  • |mode= First mode of transport served
  • |mode_2= Second mode of transport served (optional, requires |mode= to be set)
  • |line= First metro line or mode stripe
  • |line_2= Second metro line or mode stripe (optional)

Mode values

[edit]

|mode= and |mode_2= supports the following values, but |mode_2= will not work unless |mode= is set:

Mode Value Output
Hellenic Railways Organisation S Hellenic Railways Organisation
Hellenic Railways Organisation SO Diakopto–Kalavryta railway
Athens International Airport
(appears as white on a blue background)
AA Athens International Airport
Athens Metro AM Athens Metro
Athens Suburban Railway AS Athens Suburban Railway
Athens Tram AT Athens Tram
Patras Suburban Railway PS Patras Suburban Railway
Thessaloniki Suburban Railway TS Thessaloniki Suburban Railway

As of September 2024, the Thessaloniki Metro does not have a system icon.

In accordance with the situation on the ground, transit symbols (mode and mode_2) should be avoided on Athens and Thessaloniki Metro stations, except for:

The logo of Hellenic Train should not be used because they do not operate stations, similar to Renfe in Spain.

Stripe values

[edit]

|line= and |line_2= supports the following values. There is no stripe for Athens Suburban Railway stations from Acharnes Railway Center to Chalcis.

Mode Value Colour Notes
Athens Metro, Line 1 AM1 #007A33
Athens Metro, Line 2 AM2 #DA291C
Athens Metro, Line 3 AM3 #10069F
Athens Metro, Line 4 AM4 #FFA300
Athens Suburban Railway
Piraeus to the Airport, except Athens
AS #FFCD00 This template automatically sets the stripe to #00A3E0 if |name=Athens.
Athens Suburban Railway
Zefyri to Aigio, and Athens
ASK #00A3E0
Athens Tram AT #78BE20
Thessaloniki Metro, Line 1 TM1 #DA291C TM12 sets the stripe to red/blue, according to signage inside stations such as Dimokratias (example):[1] the template rejects TM12 as a bottom stripe, because it uses inset drop shadows to achieve the dual-line effect.
Thessaloniki Metro, Line 2 TM2 #10069F
Thessaloniki Suburban Railway
Thessaloniki to Larissa only
TS #10069F

Examples

| name    = Thiva
| mode    = S
}}

[edit]
Markup Renders as

| line    = AM1
}}
Μαρούσι
Marousi

Example nameplate for Marousi, a simple metro station.

{{Infobox station/Header GR
| name_el = Σύνταγμα
| name    = Syntagma

| line_2  = AM3
}}
Athens Metro
Σύνταγμα
Syntagma
Athens Tram

Example nameplate for Syntagma, which is a metro and tram interchange. A separate nameplate for the tram stop is not required if it has the same name.

The order of stripes are inverted at interchanges with Line 1, at Attiki, Monastiraki, Omonia and Piraeus.

{{Infobox station/Header GR
| name_el = ΚΑΤ
| name    = KAT
| line    = AM1
}}
ΚΑΤ

Example nameplate for KAT, which only has one line because both names coincidentally use the same letters.

{{Infobox station/Header GR
| name_el = Συγγρού–Φιξ
| name    = Sygrou–Fix
| line    = AM2
}}
{{Infobox station/Header GR

| name    = Fix
| mode    = AT
| line    = AT
}}
Συγγρού–Φιξ
Sygrou–Fix
Athens Tram
Φίξ
Fix

Syngrou–Fix has two nameplates because the tram stop's name omits "Sygrou".

Technical information

[edit]

The mode icons will not appear in hard copies or mobile versions of articles that use this header: the former is to conserve printer ink, and the latter is to improve navigation on small screens.

History

[edit]

This template replaced {{Infobox station/Header OASA}} in June 2023, ahead of the opening of the Thessaloniki Metro on 30 November 2024.
