Template:Country data Netherlands:

There are 1251 templates like this, see Category:Country data templates. The naming scheme is "Template:Country data index".

Included content[edit]

The template is called from more than 5000 pages.

The include-part of the template is:

{{ {{{1}}}
| alias = Netherlands
| flag alias = Flag of the Netherlands.svg
| flag alias-air force = NL-VLAG-Luchtmacht.svg
| link alias-air force = Royal Netherlands Air Force
| link alias-naval = Royal Netherlands Navy
| size = {{{size|}}}
| name = {{{name|}}}
| altlink = {{{altlink|}}}
| variant = {{{variant|}}}
}}

referring to

Thus it contains five data items. It performs a call of a template of choice, and in addition it allows four parameters to be passed on to that template.

To retrieve a raw data item one can use parameter selection template Template:Pst name, for example:

{{country data Netherlands|#switch:flag alias}} gives Flag of the Netherlands.svg.

Template:Country get alias2 contains {{#if:{{{variant|}}}|{{{{{{name|}}} alias-{{{variant}}}|{{{alias-{{{variant}}}}}}}}}|{{{{{{name|}}} alias|{{{alias}}}}}}}}

so apart from special cases it is the parameter selection template for parameter alias:

  • {{country get alias2|alias|abc}} → {{{alias}}}

Template:Getalias contains {{country data {{{1}}}|country get alias2|name={{{2|}}}|variant={{{variant|{{{3|}}}}}}}}

so apart from special cases it produces the value of alias stored in "Template:Country data {{{1}}}".

  • {{country data NED|country get alias2}} → Netherlands
  • {{getalias|Netherlands}} → Netherlands

There is currently only one like this: Template:Get..

Template:Flag[edit]

Ca. 2500 templates alone link to Template:Flag. It effectively contains:

{{country data {{{1|}}}
| country flag
| name = {{{name|{{{1|}}}}}}
| variant = {{{variant|{{{2|}}}}}}
| size = {{{size|}}}
}}

Effectively the call {{flag|Netherlands|n|v|size=s}} becomes

{{country data Netherlands|country flag|name=n|variant=v|size=s}}

{{ country flag
| alias = Netherlands
| flag alias = Flag of the Netherlands.svg
| flag alias-air force = NL-VLAG-Luchtmacht.svg 
| link alias-air force = Royal Netherlands Air Force
| link alias-naval = Royal Netherlands Navy
| size = s
| name = n
| altlink = 
| variant = v
}}

Template:Country flag contains:

<span class="flagicon">[[File:{{{flag alias-{{{variant}}}|{{{flag alias}}}}}}|{{#if:{{{size|}}}|{{{size}}}|22x20px}}|{{{border-{{{variant}}}|{{{border|border}}}}}} |alt=|link=]] </span>[[{{{alias}}}|{{{name}}}]]

So we get:

<span class="flagicon">[[File:Flag of the Netherlands.svg|s|border|alt=|link=]] </span>[[Netherlands|n]]

As a result:

{{flag|Netherlands}} Netherlands
{{flag|1=Netherlands|size=20px|name=n}} n
{{flag|1=Netherlands|size=40px|name=n}} n
{{flag|1=Netherlands|size=60px|name=n}} n

The link to the image description page is suppressed. To go to the image decription page we can:

  • in ExpandTemplates, copy the image tag from the expanded wikitext to the input box and disable "link=", and click the image in the preview.

Without name parameter, with {{flag|NED}} we get a call to Template:Country data NED with name=NED, redirecting to Template:Country data Netherlands, so the difference is that we now have name=NED.

Without name parameter, with {{flagcountry|NED}} we get a call to Template:Flagcountry containing

{{country data {{{1}}} 
| country flagcountry2
| variant = {{{variant|{{{2|}}}}}}
| size = {{{size|}}}
| name = {{{name|}}} 
}}

so here parameter 1 is not the default for name. This produces again a call to Template:Country data NED with name=NED, redirecting to Template:Country data Netherlands, now calling Template:Country flagcountry2, containing:

<span class="flagicon">[[File:{{{flag alias-{{{variant}}}|{{{flag alias}}}}}}|{{#if:{{{size|}}}|{{{size}}}|22x20px}}|{{{border-{{{variant}}}|{{{border|border}}}}}} |alt=|link=]] </span>[[{{{alias}}}|{{#if:{{{name|}}}|{{{name}}}|{{{shortname alias|{{{alias}}}}}}}}]]

so now with as default for name the parameter alias.

Country codes: {{NLD}} and {{NED}} (which is a redirect to that) are equivalent to {{flag|Netherlands}}.

Template:Navy[edit]

Template:Navy effectively contains:

{{country data {{{1}}} 
| country flagnavy
| variant = {{{variant|{{{2|}}}}}}
| size = {{{size|}}}
| name = {{{name|}}} 
}}

Effectively the call {{navy|Netherlands|v|size=s|name=n}} becomes

{{country data Netherlands|country flagnavy|variant=v|size=s|name=n}}

{{ country flagnavy
| alias = Netherlands
| flag alias = Flag of the Netherlands.svg
| flag alias-air force = NL-VLAG-Luchtmacht.svg 
| link alias-air force = Royal Netherlands Air Force
| link alias-naval = Royal Netherlands Navy
| size = s
| name = n
| altlink = 
| variant = v
}}

Template:Country flagnavy contains:

<span class="flagicon">[[File:{{{flag alias-naval-{{{variant}}}|{{{flag alias-{{{variant}}}|{{{flag alias-naval|{{{flag alias}}}}}}}}}}}}|{{#if:{{{size|}}}|{{{size}}}|22x20px}}|{{{border-naval-{{{variant}}}|{{{border-{{{variant}}}|{{{border-naval|{{{border|border}}}}}}}}}}}} |alt=|link=]] </span>[[{{{link alias-naval|{{{shortname alias|{{{alias}}}}}} Navy}}}{{#if: {{{name|}}} | {{!}}{{{name}}} }}]]

So we get:

<span class="flagicon">[[File:Flag of the Netherlands.svg|s|border|alt=|link=]] </span>[[Royal Netherlands Navy|n]]

As a result:

{{navy|Netherlands}} Royal Netherlands Navy
{{navy|1=Netherlands|size=20px|name=n}} n
{{navy|1=Netherlands|size=40px|name==n}} Royal Netherlands Navy
{{navy|1=Netherlands|size=60px|name=n}} n

The link to the image description page is suppressed,

Documentation[edit]

The content of Template:Country data Netherlands for rendering the page itself (the content except the includeonly part) is effectively:

{{ country showdata
| alias = Netherlands
| flag alias = Flag of the Netherlands.svg
| flag alias-air force = NL-VLAG-Luchtmacht.svg 
| link alias-air force = Royal Netherlands Air Force
| link alias-naval = Royal Netherlands Navy
| redir1 = NLD
| redir2 = NED
| redir3 = The Netherlands
| related1 = Kingdom of the Netherlands
| related2 = Dutch Republic
}}
[[af:Sjabloon:Landdata Nederland]]
[[ml:ഫലകം:Country data Netherlands]]
[[sl:Predloga:Podatki države Nizozemska]]

which is a call of Template:Country showdata, and interwiki links. That template automatically generates the documentation on the template page, and transcludes Template:Country data Netherlands/doc for additional documentation starting from "Other information".

It gives, without the latter:


<tt>Template:{{PAGENAME}}</tt> is an internal data container not intended to be transcluded directly. It is used indirectly by templates such as <tt>[[Template:flag|flag]]</tt>, <tt>[[Template:flagicon|flagicon]]</tt>, and others.

{{ombox|text=This template is within the scope of '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Flag Template|WikiProject Flag Template]]''', a collaborative effort to maintain flag templates on Wikipedia.  A more thorough discussion of the flag template system, including parameters not described here, can be found on the project page.}}
