Template:Census 2016 AUS
This template allows for the inclusion of direct web links to official 2016 census data into Australian geographical articles. Due to periodic changes/redesigns on the ABS website, these links may change: the advantage of using the template is therefore that all articles using this template will migrate with it.
Usage[change source]
General[change source]
{{Census 2016 AUS|id= |name= |accessdate= |quick=on}}
Lists only[change source]
{{Census 2016 AUS|id= |link=yes}}
Parameters[change source]
id- ABS ID for the region (note: may be different from 2011, so don't convert across without checking.)
name- ABS Name for the region: e.g. Raymond Terrace (State Suburb).
accessdate- Optional parameter to record date accessed in the form dd mmmm yyyy (e.g. 26 April 2024).
quick- This is an optional but widely used parameter. When added at the end, generally as
|quick=on, it forces QuickStats instead of a link to the "Census Community Profiles" page. link- This is an optional parameter that causes a bare link to be generated instead of a citation if
|link=yesand is for use in lists such as List of cities in Australia by population#50 largest urban centres by population. When this is the case, the only necessary parameter isid. Other parameters will not be used. This functionality is similar to that provided by {{Census 2006 AUS link}}.
