[edit] Template documentation
This documentation is transcluded from Template:Inflation-fn/doc. (edit | history)

Provides standard article footnotes for documenting the source of the inflated prices calculated by {{Inflation}}.

[edit] Usage

 {{Inflation-fn}}
 {{Inflation-fn|country}}

When the country parameter is provided, a footnote about that specific data set is generated. The country codes are the same used by {{Inflation}}:

  • {{Inflation-fn|DE}} = [1]
  • {{Inflation-fn|UK}} = [2]
  • {{Inflation-fn|US}} = [3]

When no country parameter is provided, or when an invalid country is provided, the generated footnote is a generic one:

  • {{Inflation-fn}} = [4]
  • {{Inflation-fn|xyz}} = [4]

This is the reference list generated by the above examples:

  1. ^ German inflation numbers based on data available from Deutsches Statistisches Bundesamt.
  2. ^ UK CPI inflation numbers based on data available from Measuring Worth: UK CPI.
  3. ^ US CPI inflation data obtained from Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis - Consumer Price Index (Estimate).
  4. ^ a b Inflated values automatically calculated.

Notice that the anchor names produced are based on the country parameter, or its lack thereof. As a result, the same {{Inflation-fn|country}} code can be used many times in the same article while generating only one actual footnote per country code.

See the related section at {{Inflation}} for additional instructions and examples.
