Usage
rættaThis is a meta-template that is not intended to be transcluded directly from the main article space. It can be used to construct other templates that need to extract the |alias=
value from the specified country_data
structure, so that customized wikilinks can be constructed. For example, {{getalias|USA}}
→ "USA".
Different parameter values can be extracted using the second unnamed parameter. Use shortname as a second parameter to retrieve the |shortname alias=
value if desired. For example, {{getalias|IRL}}
→ "Lýðveldið Írland", but {{getalias|IRL|shortname}}
→ "Írland". To extract the flag image name (|flag alias=
), use flag as second parameter: {{getalias|CHN|flag}}
→ "Flag of the People's Republic of China.svg". The output defaults to the |alias=
value if the desired |xxx alias=
is undefined in the target template.
A third parameter can specify the variant; for example, [[Image:{{getalias|United States|flag|1912}}|22px]]
→ returns the image defined as
|flag alias-1912=
in {{Country data United States}}. The variant parameter can also be used to extract the link used with military and sports templates (e.g. {{army}}, {{fb}}): {{getalias|UK|link|army}}
→ British Army.
