Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]This template is used on approximately 13,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
This template expands a name (first parameter) to link to the appropriate railway station article, without displaying "Station".
Optionally a second parameter can be supplied to distinguish between identically named stations in different locations. The qualifier will be placed within parentheses after "Station".
A third parameter can be used to change the displayed station name.
For example:
{{STN|Ginza}}
expands to ]
.
{{STN|Jiyūgaoka|Tokyo}}
expands to ]
.
{{STN|Tokyo||Tōkyō}}
expands to ]
.
Discretion should be used on whether to name the place itself or the station that serves it. In railway articles it is generally preferred to use the station unless specifically talking about the place, for example that ‹See TfM›Tokyo Disneyland serves the Tokyo Disneyland amusement park.
For articles named with lowercase "station", use {{Station}}.
