Template:Wdtable row/lighthouse4

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 lighthouses in England#Inactive lighthouses 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	Column 6	Column 7	Column 8
Label	image (P18)	location (P276) coordinate location (P625)	historic county (P7959)	service entry (P729)	service retirement (P730)	height (P2048)	operator (P137) qualified by end time (P582)

Example

The Wikidata QID for Souter Lighthouse is Q7565258. Typing the following:

{{Wdtable row/lighthouse4|qid=Q7565258}}

produces

Name	Image	Location	Historic county	Service entry	Service retirement	Height	Operator
Souter Lighthouse		Marsden 54°58′14″N 1°21′51″W	County Durham	11 Jan 1871	1988	23 m (75 ft)	Trinity House (until 1988), National Trust (from 1990)

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 lighthouses in England#Inactive lighthouses 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
