Template:AUSintcore/doc

This is a template for generating an intersection or exit for a road article. It is a member of the {{Jctint}} suite of templates.

General usage

This is the basic syntax you need to get a complete intersection table. Just copy and paste the code below:

{{AUSinttop}}

|LGA=
|LGAspan=
|location=
|lspan=
|type=
|km=
|road=
|notes=
}}
{{Jctbtm}}

...and fill in the variables! For more entries, use this:

|LGA=
|LGAspan=
|location=
|lspan=
|type=
|km=
|road=
|notes=
}}

Within a single LGA

If a road is entirely within a single local government area, you may omit the LGA column by using the following code:

{{AUSinttop|noLGA=yes}}

|location=
|lspan=
|type=
|km=
|road=
|notes=
}}
{{Jctbtm}}

Just copy and paste the above code, and fill in the variables! Also note that the table should be preceded by line explaining the omitted column, such as:

The entire freeway is in the [[City of Mitcham]].

For more entries, use this:

|location=
|lspan=
|type=
|km=
|road=
|notes=
}}

Parameters

For the above parameters, here's what you should fill in:

• LGA: The name of the local government area in which the intersection is located. Full wiki markup is required, for example |LGA=[[City of Mitcham|Mitcham]]. Parameters such as LGAC can be used instead to avoid using full wiki markup (see below)
• LGAspan: number of rows the LGA spans. If value=1, omit this parameter. If set, LGA (or LGAC etc.) should be omitted from the other rows it spans.
• location: the suburb the intersection is in. The text entered here will be wikilinked to <text entered>, , so if the intersection is in multiple suburbs, you must use location_special (see below).
• lspan: number of rows the location spans—if value=1, omit this parameter. If set, location (or location_special) should be omitted from the other rows it spans
• type: use to specify a shading for that intersection's row. The permitted types are:
  • closed: for highway intersections or interchanges that are now closed to traffic
  • mplex or concur: for a route multiplexing terminus or concurrencies.
  • trans: for a route transition – from one route number to either another route number, or a section without a route number, along a named road
  • unbuilt: for unbuilt roadway intersections/interchanges.
  • incomplete: for incomplete intersections/interchanges where all movements are not supported (Northbound exit and southbound entrance, etc.)
  • hov for interchanges that are only for High occupancy vehicle lanes
  • toll or etc for an interchange where tolls or electronic tolls are collected
  • Note: If the type parameter is used, the table must include a colour key at the bottom of the table. Use the |keys= parameter in {{jctbtm}} to generate a compliant legend.
• km: the distance, in kilometres, of the intersection from the start of the road. Only enter numerical values, as these will be used to automatically generate a Miles column. Use km2 if the location is in a range of kilometres (see below)
• road: road that the article route intersects at this junction. This should be formatted as follows:<route shield/s> <wikilinked Road Name> <ndash> <wikilinked destinations>
  • Generate route shields using {{AUshield}}
  • If there are multiple roads (i.e. intersecting road changes name at this intersection), use a slash (/) to separate roads
  • Generate an ndash (–) and wikilinked destinations using
  • If destinations are to be entered manually, an ndash can be generated by the HTML character code –
• notes: any notes regarding that junction. This must include an explanation for any usage of the type-generated shading.

Additional Parameters

In addition to those in the basic syntax, the following parameters may be used:

• LGA_note: a note that appears in small text below the LGA
• location_special: (replaces location) the location where the junction is located - use for custom entries only, such as when an intersection is in multiple suburbs. Requires full wiki markup. {{SAcity}}, {{VICcity}} etc. are a useful shorthand.
• km2: use as the second measurement (km being the first) if there are intersections with a road spread out between two points along the article route.
• uspan: number of rows the units spans—if value=1, omit this parameter. If set, km and km2 should be omitted from the other rows it spans.
• rcspan: number of columns the road cell spans-if value=1, omit this parameter. Set |rcspan=2 to generate a left aligned cell that spans both the destination and notes column. Do not use for features such as a rivers and bridges - see place below. Important: if using this parameter, set |notes=none to avoid the notes cell spilling over the edge of the table.
• nspan: number of rows the notes spans—if value=1, omit this parameter. If set, notes should be omitted from the other rows it spans.
• place or bridge or tunnel: a feature, such as a bridge or tunnel. This will appear in a multicolumn cell (centre aligned) that spans the destinations and notes columns. Full wiki markup is required for links, otherwise the result will be plain text.
• pspan or bspan or tspan: number of rows the above multicolumn cell spans-if value=1, omit this parameter.
• Parameters that replace LGA: The parameters in the table below allow you to enter the LGA name as plain text, and the template will generate the necessary piped link. For example, |LGAC=Mitcham will generate  Mitcham , which links to the Wikipedia article City of Mitcham

Parameter	Type of LGA (name of article on Wikipedia)
LGAC	"City of <name>"
LGA-C	"<name> City"
LGARC	"Rural City of <name>"
LGA-Co	"<name> Council"
LGADC	"District Council of <name>"
LGA-DC	"<name> District Council"
LGAM	"Municipality of <name>"
LGA-M	"<name> Municipality"
LGA-R	"<name> Region"
LGAS	"Shire of <name>"
LGA-S	"<name> Shire"
LGAAS	"Aboriginal Shire of <name>"
LGAT	"Town of <name>"

Any parameter which is empty can be omitted.
