Template:Census 2016 AUS/doc

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.

Parameters

 * : ABS ID for the region (note: may be different from 2011, so don't convert across without checking.)
 * : ABS Name for the region: e.g. Raymond Terrace (State Suburb).
 * : Optional parameter to record date accessed in the form dd mmmm yyyy (e.g. 29 July 2024).
 * : This is an optional but widely used parameter. When added at the end, generally as on, it forces QuickStats instead of a link to the "Census Community Profiles" page.
 * : This is an optional parameter that causes a bare link to be generated instead of a citation if yes and is for use in lists such as List of cities in Australia by population. When this is the case, the only necessary parameter is . Other parameters will not be used. This functionality is similar to that provided by Census 2006 AUS link.

As a citation (QuickStats)

 * produces:
