Usage
This template works for the following types of English counties:
- The following counties for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1972:
- Non-metropolitan counties with a county council and no unitary authorities, such as Surrey (two-tier counties).
- Non-metropolitan counties with a coterminous district, with a county council but no district council, such as Northumberland (unitary counties).
- Metropolitan counties, such as the West Midlands and Greater Manchester
- The following counties for the purposes of the Lieutenancies Act 1997:
- Counties comprising a county council area and also unitary authority areas, such as Buckinghamshire (hybrid counties)
- Counties comprising multiple unitary authority areas (one sharing the county name), such as Wiltshire
- Counties comprising multiple unitary authority areas (none sharing the county name), such as Cheshire
- Greater London
Use {{Infobox settlement}} for counties that are also cities, such as Bristol and City of London as well as counties for the purposes of the Local Government Act 1972 where there is a coterminous district with a district council, but no county council, such as Milton Keynes.
Population data is pulled automatically from the following templates:
- Template:English cerem counties (all ceremonial counties)
- Template:English admin counties and Template:UK council control (non-metropolitan counties only e.g. Norfolk)
- Template:English district population (and associated templates) and Template:UK council control (single unitary authority counties e.g. Herefordshire)
Metropolitan counties and the London Region do not pull down data automatically. Where appropriate, data should be inputted into the population_council, area_council_km2 and density_council fields. Though for metropolitan counties, this data is the same as the ceremonial county data so may be left blank or else it will need to be manually updated on those pages annually. If these fields are used for other types of county, they will not display nor override the automatic data.
