This is a helper template, use by other templates.
Takes a country name, and returns the name prefixed by "the" if that is required in running text. Otherwise just returns the country name.
Optionally, returns just the word "the", if applicable.
In either case, the word "the" may optionally be returned in capitalised form.
Usage
[සංස්කරණය]{{CountryPrefixThe|Countryname}}
{{CountryPrefixThe|Countryname|onlythe=yes}}
{{CountryPrefixThe|Countryname|onlythe=yes}}
{{CountryPrefixThe|Countryname|capitalised=yes}}
{{CountryPrefixThe|Countryname|capitalised=yes|onlythe=yes}}
Examples
[සංස්කරණය]- No parameters
{{CountryPrefixThe|Kenya}}
→ Kenya{{CountryPrefixThe|Philippines}}
→ the Philippines
- with "onlythe=yes"
{{CountryPrefixThe|Kenya|onlythe=yes}}
→{{CountryPrefixThe|Philippines|onlythe=yes}}
→ the
- with "capitalised=yes"
{{CountryPrefixThe|Kenya|capitalised=yes}}
→ Kenya{{CountryPrefixThe|Philippines|capitalised=yes}}
→ The Philippines
Note that the alternative spelling "capitalized=yes" has the same effect
- with both "onlythe=yes" and "capitalised=yes"
{{CountryPrefixThe|Kenya|onlythe=yes|capitalised=yes}}
→{{CountryPrefixThe|Philippines|onlythe=yes|capitalised=yes}}
→ The
Only "the"
[සංස්කරණය]The optional parameter "onlythe=yes" allow control of whether the countryname is included in the returned value.
There are some situations where the definite article is needed alone, e.g. when the countryname is to be linked but the word "the" should not be linked.
e.g.: products were exported to [[{{{country}}}]]
If {{{country}}}=United States
, then we get a grammatically incorrect result:
products were exported to [[{{{country}}}]]"
→ products were exported to United States
Alternatively, if {{{country}}}=United States
and we use {{CountryPrefixThe}}, then then word the is incorrectly part of the linked text
products were exported to [[{{CountryPrefixThe|{{{country}}}}}]]
→ products were exported to the United States
The solution is to use the onlythe=yes
parameter:
"products were exported to {{CountryPrefixThe|{{{country}}}|onlythe=yes}} [[{{country}}]]"
→ products were exported to the United States

[සංස්කරණය]Unnamed parameter 1= the input value to be evaluated. The other parameters (all named, all optional), set options. The value of the options is calculated by {{Yesno}}, which interprets as "yes" case-insensitive forms of Yes
, y
, true
, and 1
{{yesno | | capitalised = | onlythe = }}
