Template:Jcon/doc

Jcon is a function that is used to display information about junctions in Ontario. The template is similar to {{jct}}, but with some added functionality not available in that template. The template is designed to represent Ontario highways and numbered county and regional roads. The name of the template stands for "Junction Ontario." It can display up to three concurrent roads (that are in the same system) with use of the |con= and |con2= parameters. The template can also be used to display the shield of a road by specifying |shield=y. This can be used when a road continues as another road or when this template is used in a list of routes.

Template parameters

This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Route type	1	The type of the road. If the road is a provincial highway, enter "Hwy" or "Highway". If the road is a numbered county route enter the county/region name without 'Region'/'County' etc. or an abbreviation. MTO signs like airport or bus are supported. All supported types are listed below.	Line	required
Route number	2	The number of the route.	Number	required
Road name	3	The name of the road if it is different from its numbered designation.	Line	optional
Shield	shield	Set to a truthy value to generate reassurance markers instead of junction crowns. Use when a route continues as another route or when this template is used in a list of routes.	Boolean	optional
Concurrency	con	Route number of a concurrency. Since King's Highways supersede county routes, concurrencies only exist within the same system. The number entered under the con parameter should be the higher of the two.	Number	optional
Concurrency 2	con2	Route number of a second concurrency. Since King's Highways supersede county routes, concurrencies only exist within the same system. The number entered under the con parameter should be the higher of the three.	Number	optional
City	city town	The name of the control city o the sign at the intersection. This is automatically wikilinked.	Line	optional
City 2	city2 town2	Name of the second control city	Line	optional
Direction	dir	If a junction only gives access to a road in a certain direction, enter that direction here, preferably as one of the cardinal directions (North, South, East, West).	Line	optional
Concurrency direction	condir	Same as |dir=, but for the first concurrency	Line	optional
Concurrency 2 direction	condir2	Same as |dir=, but for the second concurrency	Line	optional
Shield size	size	Sets the size of the shields. On the odd occasion, a larger size may be useful or required. For example, the template can be used as the value of the |browse_route= parameter of {{Infobox road}} to display a larger version of a county road sign. The default is 20px.	Line	optional
No shield	nosh	Set to a truthy value to not display the shield. This is useful for prose, where icons are considered intrusive and not permitted.	Boolean	optional
No text	notext	Set to a truthy value to not show the route name/only show the shield.	Boolean	optional
No link	nolink	Set to a truthy value to prevent the road name from being linked.	Boolean	optional
Only text	ot	Set to a truthy value to hide the shield and remove the link, resulting in plain text.	Boolean	optional
Trans-Canada Highway	tch	Set to a truthy value to add the shield and link for the Trans-Canada Highway	Boolean	optional
Show redlinks	showred	Set to a truthy value to show redlinks	Boolean	optional
Picture after	pic aft	Set to a truthy value to move the shields to the end of the output	Boolean	optional
