Template:Political-party

This template defines the table "parties". View table.

Usage

Unified display and Cargo template for political party pages. Do not use the old Infobox-party.

Key change: leader_display fields

Because {{#replace}} requires StringFunctions (not installed), use the companion leader_display fields for the human-readable name:

• leader_name1 = mp_id slug (stored in Cargo, used as wikilink target)
• leader_display1 = display name shown in the infobox link
