ഫലകം:Geological range/linked/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for ഫലകം:Geological range/linked. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original ഫലകം page. |
Purpose
തിരുത്തുകThis template simplifies the task of creating a geological range (as per {{Geological range}}) based on one or two named geological periods when you want the period names to be wiki-linked.
It does not have the flexibility of the full {{Geological range}} template, which should always be used to create a geological range in any other way (e.g. based on numerical dates, or with an extended range).
Usage
തിരുത്തുകThere are two ways of using the template:
{{Geological range/linked|period name|ref=reference (optional)}}{{Geological range/linked|first period name|second period name|ref=reference (optional)}}.
Examples:
{{Geological range/linked|Silurian}}produces:
]T2in=Silurian•{{{2}}}•{{{3}}}•String Module Error: Target string is empty•0[ ]T3in=Silurian||String Module Error: Target string is empty|[ Silurian
{{Geological range/linked|Silurian|Early Permian}}produces:
]T2in=Silurian•Early Permian•{{{3}}}•String Module Error: Target string is empty•0[ ]T3in=Silurian|Early Permian|String Module Error: Target string is empty|[ Silurian Early Permian +String Module Error: Target string is empty+
{{Geological range/linked|Middle Devonian|ref=<ref>Dummy reference</ref>}}produces:
]T2in=Middle Devonian•{{{2}}}•{{{3}}}•String Module Error: Target string is empty•0[ ]T3in=Middle Devonian||String Module Error: Target string is empty|[ Middle Devonian
Note that this template does not provide any of the other parameters of {{Geological range}}.
Errors
തിരുത്തുകIf you have specified the parameters correctly and this template generates an error, it is likely to be because the period is missing from {{next period}} or {{period start}}. Please go ahead and add it in the appropriate place (once you've checked your spelling!).
You also need to add the period to {{period start error}} so that other templates which display geological dates, such as {{period span}} will work properly with this new period name.
