User:Who R you?/CGHC-R
Adds a Row of data to {{ Canada Games Host Cities }}, appropriately formatted for either the Winter or Summer Games. Formatting is determined from the Year, assuming games alternating between Winter & Summer, being held every other year, with the first games being Winter games in 1967.
Usage
{{ CGHC-R | Year | City/Cities | Prov/Terr | Footnote | AltProvName | AltFlag }}
where (unnamed parameters in sequence represent)
| 1 | Year | → | the year in which the Games were/will be held. The year determines if the row is formatted for the Winter (left) or Summer (right) table; but which table it is added to is controlled by the location where {{CGHC-R}} is called.Notice: If the table contains an odd number of items (and therefore the Winter list (left) is ½ row longer than the Summer list (right)), the left side of the table does NOT automatically add the necessary border to the bottom-right side of the bottom row in the Winter list; in order to add this, a final call to {{ CGHC-R }} without any parameters (i.e. simply " |
|||||
| 2 | City/Cities | → | City]] is automatically created if the article exists. Where multiple cities host (or for example with PEI when the Games were Hosted throughout the Province), if no "City, Prov/Terr" article exists, no link is created; City/Cities parameter can specify multiple cities with links by providing the entire, appropriately linked, city names, as in "[[Saguenay, Quebec | Saguenay]] and [[Lac Saint-Jean, Quebec | Lac Saint-Jean]]" in 1983; note that the province/territory will still link automatically based upon parameter # 3 (Prov/Terr). | |||||
| 3 | Prov/Terr | → | territory/province hosting the Games; automatically links (or will create a red-link) to the article for the province/territory. | |||||
| 4 | Footnote | → | [optional] any character to be automatically superscripted (e.g. " a "), after the Prov/Terr, to associate with a footnote (which must be manually added) at the base of the table; note ∗ ("<sup>∗</sup>") is automatically substituted for * (asterisk). | |||||
| 5 | AltProvName | → | [optional] alternative province/territory name to be displayed for link (i.e. The 17th Winter Games were held in the province of what is now "Newfoundland and Labrador"; but in 1999 when the Games were hosted, the province's name was "Newfoundland" (having been renamed by Parliament in 2003); to display the proper province name (as of 1999) but link to the proper provincial article (entitled "Newfoundland and Labrador") and to the appropriate city article(s) (" [[Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador]]"), pass Prov/Terr (parameter # 3) as "Newfoundland and Labrador" and include AltProvName (parameter # 5) to indicate "Newfoundland" as the correct name at the time of the Games. | |||||
| 6 | AltFlag | → | [optional] as with AltProvName {above}, AltFlag may be used to specify an alternative provincial/territorial flag symbol, inserted via the {{ flagicon | Province/Territory }} where AltFlag replaces Province/Territory which defaults to parameter # 3 Prov/Terr {above} if AltFlag is omitted. |
