For use with Template:S-line in San Diego Trolley articles.

Usage

This template expands a name to link to the appropriate San Diego Trolley station article, without displaying "(San Diego Trolley station)".

The template can be abbreviated as {{mtss}} (for San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) stations).

For example, {{MTS stations|station=Gaslamp Quarter}} expands to [[Gaslamp Quarter (San Diego Trolley station)|Gaslamp Quarter]].

Discretion should be used on whether to name the place itself or the station that serves it. In railway articles it is generally preferred to use the station unless specifically talking about the place, for example that [[Template:Title case station|Template:Title case]] serves Seaport Village.

Most MTS stations follow the link form of terminating with "(San Diego Trolley station)" or "Transit Center".


Note that this template is not case sensitive: i.e. {{mtss|H Street}} produces the same result as {{mtss|h street}}.


The following abbreviations and exceptions are recognized:

This text Expands to
Old Town or
Old Town Transit Center
[[Old Town Transit Center]]
San Ysidro or
San Ysidro Transit Center
[[San Ysidro Transit Center]]
Santa Fe Depot [[Union Station (San Diego, California)|{{{station}}}]]
UTC University Towne Center
(Terminus of the future Mid-Coast Trolley extension; not linked since no article exists yet.)
