ແມ່ແບບ:Data New Zealand

ແມ່ແບບນີ້ສາມາດເກັບລານການຂໍ້ມູນ ແລະ ສາມາດເອົາຂໍ້ມູນກ່ຽວກັບ New Zealandໄປໃຊ້ໄດ້ຢ່າງອິດສະຫຼະ in the form of parameter values of a variable template of choice, in a standardized fashion. It is a member of a family of templates, those with names starting with "Data" in Category:Data templates. The system used is similar to that of Wikipedia:WikiProject Flag Template. The corresponding template of that project is Template:Country data New Zealand.

Parameters

Parameter name	Value	Meaning
`1`	`New Zealand`	last part of template name, used to identify it within the family of templates^[1]
`article`		article name; needs to be specified only if it differs from `New Zealand`; in applications, use `[[{{{article\|{{{1}}}}}}]]` to link to the article (as has been done at the top of this page)
`short name`		shorter display name to be used in some contexts; an application or application parameter can specify whether this is used; only intended for dispensing with disambiguation in a context where it is not needed
`type`	`country`	type of entity, e.g. continent, country, province, municipality
`code`		code
`code description`		code description
`continent`	`Oceania`	continent, if type is lower than "continent"
`country`		country, if type is lower than "country"
`province`		province, if type is lower than "province"
`popbase`	`5,112,300`	population on a given date (stored without commas)
`popbaseyear`	`2020`	year for which the population base figure applies
`popbasemonth`	`12`	month for which the population base figure applies
`popbaseday`	`31`	day for which the population base figure applies
`popinc`	`118.478`	population increase per day; used to extrapolate the population figure
`land area`	`262,443`	land area in km² (stored without commas)
`total area`	`270,467`	total area in km² (stored without commas)
`flag image`	`Flag of New Zealand.svg`	name of the flag image (or other illustration, if there is no flag) shown above

Throughout the family of templates, fixed names are used for the parameters. (The parameter names are kept short to reduce counts for the post expand include size and the template argument size in cases where these are applicable.) However, not necessarily all parameters have been given a value: some parameters may not be applicable, while for some other parameters the value may just have not been specified yet. The table shows all parameters, and for each the value, if specified.

↑ It may seem odd, but a template cannot retrieve its own name (PAGENAME only provides this on the template page itself), and even if it could, a string operation would be needed to remove "Data ". Putting the name of the entity in the data template removes the need to supply it as a parameter when the data template is called (in the cases that it would need this name).
