•
Assembly#
→
## indicating which sitting of the assembly (e.g. 39 links to39th Parliament of Ontario), automatically handles mapping to proper numeric suffix (i.e. 40 → 40th, 41 → 41st, 42 → 42nd, 43 → 43rd, 44 → 44th, etc.);
•
OntParty
→
Name of party (where both {Template:Canadian politics/party colours/OntParty} and {OntarioOntPartyParty} (or redirects) exist);
•
OntPartyLink
→
May be used to override the default article ("Ontario OntParty Party") wikilinked to OntParty(above) — Use OntPartyLink=none to suppress wikilink creation;
•
RepName
→
Firstname(s) Lastname of elected Representative (See also RepLink below);
•
RepLink
→
Link to Representative's wiki article, if it exists, (if omitted then automatically links to [[RepName]], if it exists), (assigning a non−existent value, such as "*Nothing*" or "NoRepLink", can force the template not to create a link in situations where an unrelated article exists for RepName and there is no wiki article which could be specified here);
•
#ByElections
→
# defined/non-zero only if SUBSEQUENT rows identify mid-term By-Elections (Set #ByElections = 1 if the following row defines the only by−election to have occurred (in this riding) during the assembly's sitting. Note: If more that one by−election occurs during a sitting then set this flag only on the first general election row and specify the total number of by−elections to occur during the sitting (i.e. If the riding had a general election followed by three by−elections, the first row for the general election should specify #ByElections = 3 and all subsequent rows of by−election data should omit this parameter and Assembly#));
•
PartyTerms#
→
# of SUBSEQUENT rows that this party holds the seat (i.e. If the party is elected in this riding three times in a row, the FIRST time they are elected should specify PartyTerms# = 3 and the subsequent 2 rows should omitOntParty and PartyTerms# parameters);
•
RepTerms#
→
# of SUBSEQUENT rows that this representative was elected to the seat (i.e. if the representative holds the seat in this riding for 4 elections (or 3 elections plus 1 By-Election) in a row, the FIRST time they are elected should specify RepTerms# = 4 and all subsequent rows (election or By-Election) should omit the RepName and RepTerms# parameters (as well as the OntParty and PartyTerms# unless they changed affiliation).
Examples
Note how the …Terms# parameters replace the duplicate of information and span multiple rows in the table:
