Simplified usage with Wikidata

The two pieces of information in this template can be automatically populated.

1. The id can be fed automatically from Wikidata if the ID field is left empty.
   • If an IAAF ID has not yet been added to the athlete's Wikidata: Click "WikiData Item" under Tools on the left menu. Under "Statements" on the Wikidata page click add and type in IAAF ID. Enter the ID and save. This ID can now be automatically used across all Wikipedia's languages.
   • After the IAAF ID has been added to the athlete's Wikidata, placing {{IAAF name}} in the athlete's Wikipedia article will generate the link successfully.
2. The name will be automatically generated from the page title. Any disambiguation handles (e.g. Michael Johnson (sprinter)) will be stripped from the name automatically.

How to find the "id" number

To find an athlete's IAAF profile and "id" number:

1. Go to http://www.iaaf.org/athletes
2. Find the athlete using the web page navigation (name and/or country).
3. The URL of the athlete's profile will look something like this:

   http://www.iaaf.org/athletes/united-states/carl-lewis-1622

   The number at the end of the URL is the "id" (in this case, 1622)

4. Edit the article and insert the following text (assuming you are adding the link to the External links section):

   * {{IAAF name|1622}}

5. Before saving the page, it is always a good idea to double check if the link you've created is correct by clicking on it.

The IAAF database currently only covers athletes active from the 1980s to the present day; you won't find Emil Zatopek or Alberto Juantorena. Still, it is fairly comprehensive; all notable athletes are covered, along with many non-notable ones.
