Usage

edit

This template is intended for Philippine cities and municipalities. It uses both the PSGC code and population (including its point in time qualifier) stored in Wikidata. The template returns the population figures for the specified census year, and is primarily intended for use inside {{Philippine Census}} tables.

  • To retrieve the population by census year, use:
{{Philippine census population|1980}}

Notes

edit

The template can also be used on province and region articles, but since many of those articles only store the 2015 population data, the template will give blank results for older censuses which are missing in Wikidata.
