Template:ISO 4217/code-is-ambiguous

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Utilising the alpha3 ISO 4217 code. For example, the code number can be derived from the code. Based on the ISO 4217 Standfard definition (per {{ISO 4217/cite}}, as of October 2022).

There are 304 unique codes (ADP..ZWR). Codes are reused (as currency in history, in history with different end-date by country, in List Two funds, in entities) resulting in 452 currency definitions (data rows).

General

|iso-code=

|format=

|is-obsolete=

Most parameters work by {{yesno}} principle: yes, 1, true, <anytext> and no, 0, false, <blank> are recognised as T/F.

See also Template:Slink

|format=-options can be comma-separated list: |format=option-none, ISO4217-cat, mono, brackets, (as announced per template)

Base: iso-code

ISO 4217/code

• {{ISO 4217/code}}

Returns valid ISO 4217 code or blank.

|iso-code=

Basic: |format=<blank> returns EITHER the code as exists OR <blank> (no tracking etc)

|format=option-none, ISO4217-cat

See Template:Slink

Other data (ref, comment) elsewhere. Data as of 17 October 2022, per source {{ISO 4217/cite}}

iso-code error (maintenance category)

|format=ISO4217-cat will categorise articles with ISO-codes that do not exist in ISO. Sorted under C.

(When in Template space, a wikilink to the category will show: |iso-code=ZZZ → ISOcat-C*)

See Template:Slink

option-none (code='None')

|format=option-none will allow |iso-code=''None'', none, no (formatting is optional).

• {{ISO 4217/code-none}} will return (show) |iso-code=''None'' (as formatted).

Internally, {{ISO 4217/code-none}} returns _NONE_ or <blank>.

When code "None" is not allowed |format=option-none, |iso-code=None input is considered unrecognised code (returns blank). Will be categorised from mainspace, sorted under N.

(In Template space: |iso-code=None → None)

See Template:Slink

Examples

in	plain	is "None"?	|format=option-none option-none=<absent>	|format=ISO4217-cat	number	minor unit
|iso-code=USD	USD		USD	USD	(840)	0.01
|iso-code=''None''		_NONE_	None None	None
|iso-code=ZZZ			ISOcat-C*	ISOcat-C*
|iso-code=<blank>

Derived value templates

minor unit

• "Minor unit" in ISO 4217: number of decimals for minor unit used in currency trade. For example, USD has Minor unit=2, i.e. 0.01 (dollarcent unit).

Occurring values are: <blank>, N.A., 0, 2, 3, 4. So, incidentally, 1 (for ¤ 0.1) is not present. Obsolete currency (historical, List Three): has no minor unit ("blank").

• {{ISO 4217/code-minor-unit}}

In enwiki: "<blank>", "N.A.", "0" all return blank, because "¤ 1" is not a subunit of "¤ 1".

|iso-code=, |is-obsolete=, |format=blank/default (0.001-form), exponent (N.A., <blank>, 0, 2, 3, 4)

Examples

<blank> AFA: →

N.A. XPD: →

0 KRW: →

1 (not present)

2 RUB: 0.01 → 0.01

3 OMR: 0.001 → 0.001

4 CLF: 0.0001 → 0.0001

Ambiguous code & minor units

• 10 codes are ambiguous: they appear both obsolete and active: |ANG|EUR|HRK|IDR|MWK|PEN|RON|SDG|SZL|TRY.

For example, PEN refers to an obsolete and an active currency. These have different exponents.

|is-obsolete=no/yes sets the right one. Default is: |is-obsolete=no (currency PEN is active}})

Example

PEN is ambiguous, required |is-obsolete= specifier.

USD is not ambiguous (active, |is-obsolete= is trivial)

ESA is not ambiguous (historical, List Three; |is-obsolete= is trivial)

Other not a code

PEN

|is-obsolete=1999 >< (obsolete)

|is-obsolete=no >0.01< (active)

|is-obsolete= >0.01< (active, default)

|<absent>= >0.01< (active, default)

• USD >0.01<
• PEN >0.01<
• FOO ><
• blank ><

is-obsolete=1999

• USD >0.01<
• PEN ><
• FOO ><
• blank ><

is-obsolete=no

• USD >0.01<
• PEN >0.01<
• FOO ><
• blank ><

is-obsolete=yes

• USD >0.01<
• PEN ><
• FOO ><
• blank ><

code-to-number

• {{ISO 4217/code-to-number}} ({{../format}})

1. Code and number are 1:1 (code=number; number=code).
2. Three codes defined to have no number: XFO, XFU, XRE (all obsolete)
3. As of 17 October 2022: 304 existing unique alpha3-codes (over Lists One, Two and Three). Alphacode can have zero or one number (but not multiple). Numbers can repeat (eg ALL, ALK=008).

• |format=<blank>, plain [=default]; brackets

Follows from code. Unknown code=blank. No tracking.

code-is-ambiguous

• 10 codes are ambiguous, they appear both obsolete and active: |ANG|EUR|HRK|IDR|MWK|PEN|RON|SDG|SZL|TRY.

For example, EUR is active in GERMANY, and obsolete in SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO per withdrawal-date=2006-10 (List Three). As of 17 October 2022.

When such code is used, disambiguation may be required (is-obsolete=yes/no), to specify which currency is intended. This is relevant with minor-unit, and manually setting (clarifying)is-obsolete. Used in {{Infobox currency}}.

|format=ISO4217-cat: The article using an ambiguous code, will be categorised, sort under A (for checking, not an error indication).

• {{ISO 4217/code-is-ambiguous}}

|format=iso-code, ISO4217-cat |yes-text=anytext, <blank> (note: |yes-text=<blank> is counter-intuitive; useful for categorisation)

|yes-text=<blank> → no returntext (use for silent categorisation |ISOcat=yes)

Tracking: |ISOcat=yes: when ambiguous then → in Category:Pages using ISO 4217 currency to check (98) (catsort under A)

default USD → ><

PEN → >PEN<

|ISOcat=yes → >PEN<

|yes-text=_YES-is-ambig_ → >_YES-is-ambig_<

|yes-text=<blank> → >< So status=yes, but yes-returntext is suppressed

|yes-text=<blank>, |ISOcat=yes → >< So status=yes, but yes-returntext is suppressed

code-to-withdrawal-date

• {{ISO 4217/code-to-withdrawal-date}}
• Note: |is-obsolete=yes/no required for ambivalent currencies: ANG, EUR, HRK, IDR, MWK, PEN, RON, SDG, SZL, TRY

These codes are both in list-1 and list-3 (active and obsolete). So one must specify wheteher active (no |is-obsolete=<blank>, no or obsolete |withdr-date=1999, yes No tracking. Multiple witdrawal-dats possible

code-is-obsolete

|iso-code, is-obsolete=

{{/testcases}}

The logic

|iso-code=, determines from ISO 4217. Thew code can be ambiguous.

|is-obsolete=: yes/no (T/F), blank='unknown'

{{yesno}} is applied: |is-obsolete=no, false=no (not obsolete, so active), |is-obsolete=<any text> is yes (obsolete)

Currency is obsolete?
		|is-obsolete=T/F/unk
		T=obs 01	F=act 02	unk 03
code |iso-code= ABC/unk →T/F/ambig/unk
	T=obs 10	OBS 11	N→ACT 12	OBS 13
	F=act 20	N→OBS 21	ACT 22	ACT 23
	ambig 30	OBS 31	ACT 32	ACT (default) 33
	unk 40	OBS 41	ACT 42	ACT (default) 43

• N Contradicting situation: Obsolete vs. Active. By default |code-priority=no, so |is-obsolete=T/F decides.

Contradiction solving

Two situations imply a contradiction: the ISO-status contradicts the entered |is-obsolete= status. This may occur when an infobox covers more than one currency. The default handling is: |is-obsolete= takes precedence. By setting |code-priority=yes gives ISO code prority (result opposite). This does not resolve the contradiction.

Currency is obsolete?
|code-priority=no (default)
		|is-obsolete=T/F/unk
		T=obs 01	F=act 02
code |iso-code=... →T/F/...
	T=obs 10	OBS 11	N→ACT 12
	F=act 20	N→OBS 21	ACT 22

|code-priority=yes
	N→OBS 12
N→ACT 21

Returns: when Obsolete, a text; when Active, no text (blank). On can apply this as {{#if:{{code-is-obsolete|...}}|Obsolete|Active}}.

The returntext is:

When obsolete: 1. the |is-obsolete=anytext; 2. the |withdrawal-date=, 3. |obs-text=..., 4. "OBS"

When active: 1. |act-text=... 2. <blank>

Note that, by entering a blank |obs-text=, the returntext will be a blank (so, same as default actual returntext!)

|obs-text=, |act-text= overwrites.

In {{Infobox currency}}

For |obsolete=, |obsolete= of the infobox is used: |obsolete={{{obsolete|}}}
