Categories
By default the template will be included in the appropriate category for that country. However, adding the parameter |cat=no will exclude the template from all categories. Note that this parameter is not case sensitive: i.e. |cat=NO produces the same result as |cat=no.
Setting |cat=s or =stn or =station will also add the template to either Category:Station layout templates or the appropriate sub-category, and change the first line of the template to:
This is a route-map template for a station in country.
Setting |cat=seg or =segment will also add the template to Category:Route diagram template segments, and change the first line of the template to:
For Australia (ISO 3166-1 country code AU or AUS), setting the category to one of the state abbreviations will include the template in the appropriate sub-category:
More information |cat=, State ...
Close
This parameter is also not case sensitive.
The optional named parameter |catidx= will add a sort key to the category.
