Template:Location disambiguation 2

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for a mission, an outpost, an explorable area, an explorable area during the War in Kryta, an explorable area during Winds of Change, a primary quest, a Zaishen mission quest, a Zaishen vanquish quest, a landmark, and other stuff.

Usage

Add the template to the top of location articles:

{{Location disambiguation 2}}

For most articles, autodetection will automatically list all related locations. If not, see the below for examples to manually add, repoint, or ignore articles as needed.

Parameter list

All parameters are optional and shall only be used to override autodetection, if required.

• first unnamed parameter : The name of the location without any disambiguation suffix (e.g. Arborstone, not Arborstone (explorable area)). Usually taken from the article's name.

Article overrides (set to none to remove the article)

• mission = name of the article about the mission
• outpost = name of the article about the outpost
• explorable = name of the article about the explorable area
• explorablewik = name of the article about the explorable area during War in Kryta
• explorablewoc = name of the article about the explorable area during Winds of Change
• quest = name of the primary quest (mostly for Eye of the North primary quests vs. zaishen missions)
• zquest = name of the Zaishen Mission quest
• zvanquish = name of the Zaishen Vanquish quest
• landmark = name of the Landmark
• other = name of a freely configurable article
• otherdesc = description of the article given by other=. (if one of these two is given, the other is required as well)
• disambigdesc = the description of an article that shall be disambiguated more verbosely, mostly used for nightfall. Wikify as needed. See examples.
• disambigarticle = first article fitting the parameter above
• disambigarticle2 = second article fitting the parameter above

Adding articles that aren't autodetected

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for a mission, an outpost, a Zaishen mission quest, and a landmark.

Removing articles that are erroneously detected

Haiju Lagoon (mission) is not about a regular mission, but would be detected as such.

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Haiju Lagoon}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for a mission, an explorable area, an explorable area during Winds of Change, a Zaishen vanquish quest, and a landmark.

Remove the mission by giving mission=none

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Haiju Lagoon | mission=none}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for an explorable area, an explorable area during Winds of Change, a Zaishen vanquish quest, and a landmark.

Better yet, we'll specify the mission as belonging to another category, using other=. This also removes it from autodetection.

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Haiju Lagoon | other=Haiju Lagoon (mission) | otherdesc=the mission during Dragon Festival}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for an explorable area, an explorable area during Winds of Change, a Zaishen vanquish quest, a landmark, and the mission during Dragon Festival.

While Riverside Province (explorable area) is an explorable, it belongs to War in Kryta.

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Riverside Province)}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for a mission, an outpost, an explorable area, and a Zaishen mission quest.

Some additional code could fix that, if desired.

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Riverside Province | explorable=none | explorablewik=Riverside Province (explorable area)}} →

Disambiguating Nightfall missions and explorables

In Nightfall, missions and explorables have different names, i.e. Blacktide Den -> Lahtenda Bog, or Consulate Docks/Pogahn Passage -> Gandara, the Moon Fortress. Use the disambig* parameters here.

on Blacktide Den:

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Blacktide Den | disambigdesc=the [[explorable area]] | disambigarticle=Lahtenda Bog}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for a mission, an outpost, and a Zaishen mission quest. For the explorable area, see Lahtenda Bog.

on Lahtenda Bog:

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Lahtenda Bog | disambigdesc=the [[mission]] | disambigarticle=Blacktide Den}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for an explorable area and a Zaishen vanquish quest. For the mission, see Blacktide Den.

on Gandara, the Moon Fortress:

{{Location disambiguation 2 | Gandara, the Moon Fortress | disambigdesc=the [[mission]]s | disambigarticle=Consulate Docks | disambigarticle2=Pogahn Passage}} →

This article is about a Template. This name is also used for an explorable area and a Zaishen vanquish quest. For the missions, see Consulate Docks and Pogahn Passage.

Punctuation in title

In a tiny number of cases, the template's parser might have trouble with correctly identifying articles with titles using punctuation. This can be resolved in one of two ways:

(1) On the page itself, use the {{PAGENAME}} magic word, e.g.

{{Location disambiguation 2|explorable=none|explorablewik={{PAGENAME}}}}

(2) On other pages, substitute the html/ascii code version of the punctuation. For example, use ' instead of an apostrophe:

{{Location disambiguation 2|D'Alessio Seaboard|explorable=none|explorablewik=D'Alessio Seaboard (explorable area)}}

(this only needs to be done for the first parameter)
