Template:College/doc

This documentation takes one unnamed parameter: the name, nickname, or common initialism of a university or college, and turns it into a wikilinked version of the university or college's name. It is most commonly used within Template:Player2, which is used to list players in basketball team rosters.

Examples


For usage examples within a roster, using player2, see 1976–77 Buffalo Braves season or Template:Cleveland Cavaliers roster.

Unsupported college and university names
When the unnamed parameter value is not recognized by the template, the value is displayed without a wikilink. Example:

A blank unnamed parameter will display an error message:
 * or  →

Usage notes
Be careful with abbreviations, for example: "NSU" is used to denote several schools at the NSU disambiguation page, but NSU should not be added to any other schools in this template. If NSU is placed in schools after Northeastern, this template will still yield Northeastern; if placed in schools before Northeastern, that will break all the current Northeastern usages.
 * → in Oklahoma, USA.
