Module:InfoboxWB

Module documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This is a helper module for retrieving data from bahaidata.org. It is intended to be referenced by a template which is used on a page that is already connected to a wikibase item. It does not support retrieving specific items or their properties from bahaidata since this module is specific to infoboxes used on pages which should always have a corresponding connected bahaidata page.

Functions

• getImage
• getImageCaption
• getBirthName
• getBirthDate
• getBirthPlace
• getBirthCountry
• getDeclarationDate
• getDeathDate
• getDeathPlace
• getDeathCountry
• getDeceasedAge (The age of the individual at the time of their death)
• getSisterProjects

Parameters

• lang, used to specify a language you want retrieved and displayed if other then English. If the requested language value doesn't exist then the English language value is displayed.
• format, used to modify the display format for dates, options are mdy (default) and dmy

Examples

Basic

• {{#invoke:InfoboxWB|getDeathPlace}}
• {{#invoke:InfoboxWB|getImageCaption}}
• {{#invoke:InfoboxWB|getDeathDate}}

Lang parameter

• {{#invoke:InfoboxWB|getImageCaption|lang=es}}

Format parameter

• {{#invoke:InfoboxWB|getDeathDate|format=dmy}}

To do

The adaptation so far is intended for use with Template:Infobox Person but more infoboxes can be supported by adding more functions. Need to identify other data which is suitable, what functions are needed and add/test/integrate them back into the respective templates.

The above documentation is transcluded from Module:InfoboxWB/doc. (edit | history)
Editors can experiment in this module's sandbox (create | mirror) and testcases (create) pages.
