The {{CountryAbbr}} template attempts to generate the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 code for a named country or geographic region, for use in the region: parameter of {{Coord}}. It attempts a ISO 3166-2 region code for locations in Canada, France, Germany, India, and the United States. It attempts a ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code for all other locations.
Parameters
[सम्पादयतु]The first (required) argument specifies the name of the country, such as "United States" or "Chile".
The second (optional) argument is the name of a state or province within the specified country, such as "Alaska".
Attempts have been made to recognize variations commonly seen in infoboxes, such as:
- [[Chile]]
- [[Image:Flag of Chile.svg|25px]] [[Chile]]
- {{CHL}}
- {{flag|Chile}}
So far, however, the template has failed to keep up with the ingenuity of infobox creators.
Bugs
[सम्पादयतु]Locations in Canada, India, and the United States generate invalid region codes (CA-X, IN-X, and US-X) if the second argument is omitted, blank, or invalid.
Used in
[सम्पादयतु]- {{Geobox}}
- {{Infobox building}}
- {{Infobox settlement}}
Implementation notes
[सम्पादयतु]{{CountryAbbr}} can handle many inputs simply and directly. In some cases, however, it invokes a helper template:
- {{CountryAbbr2}} - (expensive) cases where the first parameter is a template
- {{CanAbbr2}} - provinces, territories, etc. of Canada
- {{FraAbbr}} - departments, etc. of France
- {{IndAbbr}} - states, etc. of India
- {{StateAbbr}} - states, districts, etc. of the United States
