Template:Airport disambiguation/sandbox
If an internal link referred you to this page, you may wish to change the link to point directly to the intended airport article, if one exists.
 | This is the template sandbox page for Template:Airport disambiguation (diff). |
This template is designed for use on disambiguation pages which only contain links to articles for airports having the same or similar names. It displays a notice on the page and includes it in Category:Airport disambiguation pages (a subcategory of Category:Disambiguation pages). It is similar in function to Template:Disambiguation which is used on general purpose disambiguation pages.
Usage[edit]
Airports only[edit]
A disambiguation page which contains only airport names should only use Category:Airport disambiguation pages. This can be done by adding the following at bottom of page:
Airports and other pages[edit]
A disambiguation page containing both airport names and other entries should use Category:Disambiguation pages, but it can also include Category:Airport disambiguation pages.
This can be done by using the new category parameters of the {{Disambiguation}} template, as follows:
{{Disambiguation|airport}}
That template supports up to 10 category parameters, so an existing disambiguation template can be updated by adding |airport. For example, {{Disambiguation|callsign}} would become:
{{Disambiguation|callsign|airport}}
The methods shown above sort the page within the category using either the page name or a key specified via {{DEFAULTSORT}}. If a different sort key is needed, the airport category can be added as follows:
{{Disambiguation}}- [[Category:Airport disambiguation pages|''sort key goes here'']].
Examples[edit]
- For a disambiguation page listing Orange County Airport (New York) and Orange County Airport (Texas), use
{{Airport disambiguation}}
- For a disambiguation page listing Ryan Field (airport), Ryan Field (sportscaster), and Ryan Field (stadium), use
{{Disambiguation|airport}}.
- For a disambiguation page listing Burnet Municipal Airport (ICAO code KBMQ) and the radio station KBMQ (FM), use
{{Disambiguation|airport|call sign}}.
