Template:Airport disambiguation/doc

This template is designed for use on disambiguation pages which only contain links to articles for airports having the same or similar names. It displays a notice on the page and includes it in Category:Airport disambiguation (a subcategory of Category:Disambiguation pages). It is similar in function to Template:Disambiguation which is used on general purpose disambiguation pages.

Usage

Airports only

A disambiguation page which contains only airport names should only use Category:Airport disambiguation. This can be done by adding the following at bottom of page:

{{Airport disambiguation}}

Airports and other pages

A disambiguation page containing both airport names and other entries should use Category:Disambiguation pages, but it can also include Category:Airport disambiguation. This can be done by using the new category parameters of the {{Disambiguation}} template, as follows:

{{Disambiguation|airport}}

That template supports up to 10 category parameters, so an existing disambiguation template can be updated by adding |airport. For example, {{Disambiguation|callsign}} would become:

{{Disambiguation|callsign|airport}}

The methods shown above sort the page within the category using either the page name or a key specified via {{DEFAULTSORT}}. If a different sort key is needed, the airport category can be added as follows:

{{Disambiguation}}

[[Category:Airport disambiguation|''sort key goes here'']].

Examples

• For a disambiguation page listing Orange County Airport (New York) and Orange County Airport (Texas), use {{Airport disambiguation}}

• For a disambiguation page listing Ryan Field (airport), Ryan Field (sportscaster), and Ryan Field (stadium), use {{Disambiguation|airport}}.

• For a disambiguation page listing Burnet Municipal Airport (ICAO code KBMQ) and the radio station KBMQ (FM), use {{Disambiguation|airport|call sign}}.
