[edit] Ride location pages

[edit] Menu template

There is a template named Template:Ride location breadcrumb for a small menu for ride location pages (cities) like Worthing and London:

{{Ride location breadcrumb|Country=EnterHere|Location=EnterRideLocationHere(only optional)}}

You can copy and paste it in your page, and change the parameters for your location.

Normally the following is the sufficing syntax, because the parameter "Location" is mostly not needed:

{{Ride location breadcrumb|Country=EnterHere}}

For this example:

{{Ride location breadcrumb|Country=United Kindom}}

see the London page.

For this example:

{{Ride location breadcrumb|Country=United States|Location=Minneapolis}}

see the Minneapolis, Minnesota page.

The only difference to the example above is the google link because of the "Location" parameter. See below, when it is usefull.


The 2 parameters are:

  • Country Enter here the country of your ride location e.g. United States
  • (Location Enter here the location of the ride for google search. This is only optional, if nothing is entered there will be searched for the "Pagename" and "Critical Mass". This can be usefull if the location name has some words in it failing the google search e.g. "Minneapolis, Minnesota".)

[edit] Template for a list of other locations in the same country

There is a template named Template:Country location article footer for a list of other locations in the country of the city that have a wiki article.

{{Country location article footer|Country=EnterHere}}

Example: See Bristol

[edit] Categorys

Ride location pages (e.g. Worthing) have currently the categorys

  • [[Category:Ride locations]]
Category:Ride locations
  • [[Category:Country]] where Country is the countryname, e.g. "United States" [[Category:United States]].
Category:United States
  • Additional [[Category:Pagename]] where Pagename is the ride location e.g. [[Category:Bristol]]. If there are some media files, e.g. flyers photos it can be usefull to have an additional category for searching all media files for the location.
Category:Bristol
