ഫലകം:Infobox aircraft type

[തിരുത്തുക] [പുതുക്കുക] ഫലകത്തിന്റെ വിവരണം

This template is used on approximately 8,500 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This ഫലകം employs intricate features of template syntax. You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages. You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either this template's sandbox, the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here.

This aircraft type template does not function alone; it must follow {{Infobox aircraft begin}}, which is included below.

This template provides general data on types (and subtypes) of aircraft, but not technical specifications. It is built in a modular fashion allowing it to be combined with other infoboxes, in particular, {{Infobox aircraft career}}.

{{Infobox aircraft begin}}, this template, (and {{Infobox aircraft career}}, if applicable) must be enclosed by {| and |} that enclose a wiki-table (see Help:Table).

For an article on an aircraft type, use:

{|{{Infobox aircraft begin
 |parameters go here
}}{{Infobox aircraft type
 |parameters go here
}}
|}

For a case where the only example built of a particular aircraft type also had an individually noteworthy career (e.g., Spirit of St. Louis, use:

{|{{Infobox aircraft begin
 |parameters go here
}}{{Inbobox aircraft type
 |parameters go here
}}{{Inbobox aircraft career
 |parameters go here
}}
|}

name

The subject of the article. When naming aircraft and engines, please do not repeat the name of the manufacturer unless the name would be otherwise ambiguous. For example, "P-51 Mustang" does not need to have "North American" in front of it: the aircraft name is unambiguous and the manufacturer will be stated just a few lines down in the Type Infobox. Some exceptions exist, such as aircraft which only have model numbers; e.g. "Boeing 707".

image

In the format filename.xxx format with no image or file tags

size

Allows for the specification of image size; default is 250px.

alt

Alt text for the image, for readers who cannot see the image. Please see WP:ALT for details.

caption

A short (one- or two-line) caption for the image. If it isn't descriptive, then please skip it. "Boeing 747" or "Boeing 747 in flight" should be patently obvious from the context and does not need to be captioned. "A Qantas Airlines Boeing 747-400 at Heathrow Airport in 2006" is an example of a useful caption. Captions will appeared centred in the infobox.

long caption

A longer (multi-line), more detailed caption may be desirable from time to time. Long captions will appear left-justified in the infobox.

type

The aircraft's role, e.g. airliner, military trainer aircraft, Agricultural aircraft

national origin

The country where the aircraft was first manufactured. Use the main nation (e.g. UK), not constituent country (England); don't use "EU". List collaborative programs of only 2 or 3 nations; for more than 3, use "Multi-national". For licensed aircraft with a separate article, include both the originating country and the licensee country for simple variants and developments. The originating country may be omitted if it is a derivative design.

manufacturer

The firm which manufactures the aircraft.

builder

The group that only manufactures the aircraft, but is not responsible for design of the aircraft.

design group

The design group(s) that designed the aircraft. Do not list if same as the manufacturer.

designer

The person who designed the aircraft. Only appropriate for one-person designers, not project leaders or chief designers.

first flight

The date that the aircraft first flew. If this hasn't happened, skip this field - do not speculate.

introduced

Date the aircraft entered military or revenue service

introduction

Planned date the aircraft will enter military or revenue service

retired

Date the aircraft left military or revenue service. If vague or more than a few dates, skip this

status

Status of the programme, e.g. "Prototypes only", "Abandoned project". In most cases, redundant; use sparingly

primary user

list only one user; for military aircraft, this is a nation or a service arm. Please DON'T add those tiny flags, as they limit horizontal space.

more users

Limited to three in total; list using {{plainlist}} or {{unbulleted list}}

produced

Years in production (e.g. 1970-1999) if still in active use but no longer built

number built

Number of flight capable aircraft completed, for aircraft under development or still in production only those aircraft that have flown should be included. Do not include ground test airframes in this infobox although if notable can be included in the article text.

program cost

Total program cost

unit cost

Incremental or flyaway cost for military or retail price for commercial aircraft.

developed from

The aircraft which formed the basis for this aircraft.

variants with their own articles

Variants OF this aircraft

developed into

For derivative aircraft based on this aircraft, that are not variants.

Other modules currently available for the modular Infobox aircraft are:

{{Infobox aircraft begin}}

Must be included in every stack. This template carries the name, image, image caption, and formatting for the rest of the stack.

{{Infobox aircraft type}}

General data fields relevant to an aircraft type (or subtype), such as role, manufacturer, number produced, date of first flight (but not technical specifications)

{{Infobox aircraft career}}

Data fields relevant to an individually significant airframe, such as construction number, registration number, military serial, current preservation status.

{{Infobox aircraft engine}}

General data fields relevant to an aircraft engine, such as type, manufacturer, major applications (but not technical specifications)

{{Infobox aircraft program}}

General data on programs to develop types (and subtypes) of aircraft and aircraft engines, but not on the aircraft or engines themselves or their technical specifications
