Template:Topic/country

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

Template:Topic/country is used to create a link to an article about a country-related topic, such as History of Spain. It is designed to be called by a navigation template, so it only displays the country name (i.e. Spain).

This template accepts up to three unnamed parameters:

1. (required) The ISO two-letter country code (see ISO 3166-1 alpha-2). This is passed to the {{iso2country}} template to generate the country name.
2. (optional) Prefix text to be placed before the country name. The template places a space between the prefix and the country name.
3. (optional) Suffix text to be placed after the country name. There is no space between the country name and the suffix, to allow for links to articles such as List of Spain-related topics. To include a space after the country name, start the suffix text with an underscore (see examples).

Examples

Country only:

Code	Article name	Output
{{Topic/country|NZ}}	New Zealand	New Zealand
{{Topic/country|US}}	United States	United States

Using prefix (template places "the " before certain country names):

Code	Article name	Output
{{Topic/country|NZ|History of}}	History of New Zealand	New Zealand
{{Topic/country|US|History of}}	History of the United States	United States

Using suffix (with a space after country name):

Code	Article name	Output
{{Topic/country|NZ||_national cricket team}}	New Zealand national cricket team	New Zealand
{{Topic/country|US||_national cricket team}}	United States national cricket team	United States

Using prefix and suffix (with no space after country name):

Code	Article name	Output
{{Topic/country|NZ|List of|-related topics}}	List of New Zealand-related topics	New Zealand
{{Topic/country|US|List of|-related topics}}	List of United States-related topics	United States
