This graph's main version resides at Template:Graph:Lines. Please make or suggest all the changes there, and copy it everywhere else (until the copying is automated)

This graph draws one or more independent numeric data series as lines. The data must be stored on Commons' Data namespace or come from Wikidata Query Service.

Population in countries bordering Germany

Wikidata query produces three columns - year, population size, and country name. This graph shows one line per country. {{Graph:Lines | tabletype=query | table= #Population of countries sharing a border with Germany SELECT ?year ?population ?countryLabel WHERE { { SELECT ?country ?year (AVG(?populations) AS ?population) WHERE { { SELECT ?country (YEAR(?date) AS ?year) ?populations WHERE { ?country wdt:P47 wd:Q183. ?country p:P1082 ?populationStatement. ?populationStatement ps:P1082 ?populations. ?populationStatement pq:P585 ?date. } } FILTER( ?year >= 1900) } GROUP BY ?country ?year } SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en". } } | type=year | xField=year | group=countryLabel | value=population | colorscheme=category20 | yScale=log | legend=- | xGrid=y | yGrid=y | yTicks=7| width=600 | colorscheme=category20 |yAxisFormat=.1s }}

Template parameters

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Table type	tabletype	Specifies the type of the table data. "tab" (default) uses data namespace on commons, without the data: prefix. "query" sends request to wikidata query service. Default tab	String	optional
Table	table	Data page name on Commons, without the Data: prefix. The table should contain xField column, like year or date, and one or more series columns to plot. If tabletype parameter is set to "query", this value is the query.	String	required
X axis type	type	Type of the x axis - time (e.g. "2015-10" or "2013-03-08"), year (integer, but treated as a year), linear (numbers), ordinal (anything). Default year	String	suggested
X field	xField	Id of the data column that contains values for the X axis. If type=year, xField is also "year" by default.	String	required
Series	series	If each line is represented by a separate column of data (or if there is only one column), list of the data columns to show as lines. Must be in quotes, and listed by field IDs if coming from a .tab page: "field1", "field2", "field3".	String	optional
Group	group	If line color depends on just one column, specify that column's ID, instead of the series parameter.	String	optional
Value	value	If line color depends on one column, this parameter should be set to the column which has the values.	String	optional
Filter	filter	Optionally filter data with an template expression parameter e.g. `filter = datum.some_dataset_field > 1900 && datum.some_dataset_field < 2000` where `some_dataset_field` means some valid field of displayed dataset	String	optional
X axis starts at 0	xAxisZero, xZero	Force to start or not to start X axis with zero. Can be either true or false.	String	optional
Y axis zero starts at 0	yAxisZero, yZero	Force to start or not to start Y axis with zero. Can be either true or false.	String	optional
X axis scale clamp	xAxisClamp	Épingle sur l'échelle de l'axe X. Les courbes au delà de cette épingle seront cachées.	Boolean	optional
Y axis scale clamp	yAxisClamp	Épingle sur l'échelle de l'axe Y. Les courbes au delà de cette épingle seront cachées.	Boolean	optional

X axis maximum	xAxisMax, xMax	Force X axis to end with this value.	Number	optional
Y axis minimum	yAxisMin, yMin	Force Y axis to start from this value.	Number	optional
Y axis maximum	yAxisMax, yMax	Force Y axis to end with this value.	Number	optional
Y axis scale	yScale	Set Y axis scaling type - linear, log and sqrt. Default linear	String	optional
Replace zero values	replaceZerosWith	Replaces 0 values in Y data field. Recommended to be use alongside with yScale=log (else zeros will be filtered out).	Number	optional
Title	title	Title of the whole graph.	String	optional
Title horizontal alignment	titleXAlign	Horizontal alignment of title, could be one of: left, center, right	String	optional
Title horizontal offset	titleXOffset	Horizontal offset of title position, could be negative, to shift title to the left, or positive to shift title to the right	Number	optional
X axis title	xAxisTitle	Title of the X axis.	String	optional
Y axis title	yAxisTitle	Title of the Y axis.	String	optional
X axis format	xAxisFormat	Changes the formatting of the X axis labels Default %b %y (for dates)	String	optional
Y axis format	yAxisFormat	Changes the formatting of the Y axis labels Default ,d (for numbers)	String	optional
X axis labels angle	xAxisAngle	Rotates the x axis labels by the specified angle. Recommended values are: -45, +45, -90, +90.	Number	optional

Wikipedia-specific options added to this template:

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Thumbnail	thumb, 1	If set, will style the chart with a border that matches that used for image thumbnails	Boolean	optional
Location	align, 2	Implements the left, right, center, and none alignment options as described at image thumbnails. Defaults to right if |thumb=true, otherwise defaults to none	String	optional
Caption	caption, 3	Adds a caption under the image. if |hideSource=true, it should include a link to the source data. Otherwise, make sure to end the caption with a period so it will display correctly with the source data after it.	String	optional
Hide source text	hideSource	If set, hides the "See or edit source data" text under the chart. If set, make sure to include a link to the source data elsewhere (such as in the caption).	Boolean	optional

Template calls can use the parameters by name, or they can be formatted similarly to normal image syntax. For example:

{{Graph:Lines | thumb=true | align=left | caption=Per state GDP (via [[:Commons:Data:Bea.gov/GDP by state.tab]]) | table=Bea.gov/GDP by state.tab | type=year | xField=year | legend=States | series="TX","NY","CA" | chartSizing=fit | hideSource=true }}	{{Graph:Lines | thumb | center | Per state GDP. | table=Bea.gov/GDP by state.tab | type=year | xField=year | legend=States | series="TX","NY","CA" | title=Per state GDP | chartSizing=fit }}
