Simplified usage with Wikidata edit

The two pieces of information in this template can be automatically populated.

  1. The id can be fed automatically from Wikidata if the ID field is left empty.
    • If an JAAF ID has not yet been added to the athlete's Wikidata: Click "WikiData Item" under Tools on the left menu. Under "Statements" on the Wikidata page click add and type in JAAF ID. Enter the ID and save. This ID can now be automatically used across all Wikipedia's languages.
    • After the JAAF ID has been added to the athlete's Wikidata, placing {{JAAF}} in the athlete's Wikipedia article will generate the link successfully.
  2. The name will be automatically generated from the page title. Any disambiguation handles (e.g. Sayaka Aoki (athlete)) will be stripped from the name automatically.

How to find the "id" number edit

To find an athlete's JAAF profile and "id" number:

  1. Go to https://www.jaaf.or.jp
  2. Find the athlete using the web page navigation (name and/or country).
  3. The URL of the athlete's profile will look something like this:
    https://www.jaaf.or.jp/player/profile/sayaka_aoki/
    The name at the end of the URL is the "id" (in this case, sayaka_aoki)
  4. Edit the article and insert the following text (assuming you are adding the link to the External links section):
    * {{JAAF|sayaka_aoki}}
  5. Before saving the page, it is always a good idea to double check if the link you've created is correct by clicking on it.

The JAAF database currently only covers Japanese national level athletes.
