Template talk:Census 2006 AUS

Broken?
There seems to be a problem with this template, which makes the statistics on Wodonga, Victoria confusing:

(i.e. )

takes one to Wondonga (Statistical subdivision), whereas presumably it should take one to Albury-Wondonga (Wondonga Part) (Urban Centre/Locality). [the URIs may or may not be correct as I've described them, but the destination is the same/the important bit.]

Is this fixable?

 * It's a misapplication rather than an error - the "id" should be UCL200400. Orderinchaos 16:24, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Edit request from Pillerillern, 31 August 2010
The description for the template isn't correct since it doesn't actually get the data it's only an easy way to get a source link to the data. Pillerillern (talk) 06:15, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Done. I hope the result is clearer. Orderinchaos 07:18, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Categorise
The template should be categorized into Category:Australian specific-source templates instead of Category:specific-source templates --Muhandes (talk) 14:55, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Agreed. And edit request template added.  Claret Ash  10:18, 29 January 2012 (UTC)


 * I've split off an unprotected template:Census 2006 AUS/doc where non-admins can keep the categories up to date. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 16:06, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Edit request - ABS web has been redesigned.
The ABS have rearranged their website, now all the links generated by this template to point to their pages need updating. I have modified template code and some rudimentary testcases are in the standard places. Bleakcomb (talk) 06:30, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg Done -- John of Reading (talk) 07:22, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Edit request: Make accessdate parameter not required
Could someone please update the template so that the accessdate parameter is not required?

Note that  correctly generates:

However,  generates a CS1 date error:

I just updated Ballarat to add an empty accessdate parameter to fix the CS1 error. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 01:15, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes check.svg Done. Cheers,  Little Mountain  5  04:58, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the speedy update! I've updated the documentation to note that the parameter is optional.  Thanks!  GoingBatty (talk) 17:13, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Would you mind making the same change to the protected Template:Census 2001 AUS? I was able to change the unprotected Template:Census 2011 AUS.  Thanks!  GoingBatty (talk) 17:17, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * No problem, [ done]. (It doesn't seem to be protected, by the way.)  Little Mountain  5  18:32, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks again - guess I got confused looking at three templates at once. GoingBatty (talk) 01:50, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Edit Request: Change Formatter URLs in 2006–2016 AUS census templates
The ABS website has changed its formatter URL again, so the URLs generated by the template code need to be changed into the new link format below:

and The 2011 census' wikidata page also seems to need to have its formatter URL updated. Happily888 (talk) 11:53, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ I was unable to figure out how to make the map parameter function. Is there a new URL for that service? – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:48, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
