Template:Chart
 | This template uses TemplateStyles: |
 | This template uses the Chart extension with sources from Wikimedia Commons. |
Usage
[edit]This template implements Wikipedia's #chart extension in a user-friendly manner. In articles and most other places, it should always be used instead of #chart, so that editors are provided with a link (under the chart) to the source data, in case they need to edit it.
