QPN is an abbreviation for Queensland Place Names.
Usage
This template creates a साँचा:tl citation to individual records in the online database of Queensland Place Names, a useful searchable reference source on Queensland's place names. It covers cities, towns, suburbs, localities and railway stations as well as geographical features such as mountains, rivers, etc. It does not cover street names or buildings (no schools, churches, etc).
Parameters
- There are two unnamed parameters
- Place ID number. This is the only mandatory parameter. It can be found at the end of the URL
- Place name. It is optional but really useful to include for the benefit of the reader
For example, the suburb of Kenmore record can be referenced using
{{Cite QPN|41505|Kenmore}}
resulting in:
स्क्रिप्ट त्रुटि: "citation/CS1" ऐसा कोई मॉड्यूल नहीं है।
- The access date can be specified using the
accessdate
fields. - Error checking is not done at all. Specifying an incorrect ID will result in a link to a non-existing record.
More examples
- Use of
accessdate
field, for the Bindha railway station:
{{Cite QPN|2665|Bindha|accessdate=2011-02-03}}
result:
स्क्रिप्ट त्रुटि: "citation/CS1" ऐसा कोई मॉड्यूल नहीं है।
Harvard style referencing
This template provides a simple Harvard style reference, using QHR followed by the ID number. For example, to reference the suburb of Kenmore use साँचा:tl2 or साँचा:tl2, as appropriate. However, year referencing is not supported at this time.

Template:Cite QHR can be used to reference places on the Queensland Heritage Register, which covers a large number of significant buildings.
