This is a documentation subpage for Template:CWGC cemetery.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is used to provide links to pages in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission's database at http://www.cwgc.org.

Usage

{{cwgc cemetery|nnnnn|accessdate=}}

  • nnnnn is the database number found in the Commission's url.
  • If included, the optional parameter accessdate= will enable the editor to show the date the database was accessed.

Example

The url for Ploegsteert Wood Military Cemetery is http://www.cwgc.org/search/cemetery_details.aspx?cemetery=51602&mode=1.

Extract the 51602 and add it to the template and |accessdate= as the second:

{{cwgc cemetery|51602|accessdate=1 January 2025}}

This produces direct links to the four parts of the cemetery register:

Cemetery details. Commonwealth War Graves Commission. Retrieved 1 January 2025.
