Template:France metadata Wikidata
This template can be used to feed area and population figures from Wikidata to fields in templates such as {{Infobox settlement}}.
Population
[change source]{{France metadata Wikidata}} works by checking if the Wikidata entity linked to the article has a population (P1082) statement dating to 2018 or 2017 and sourced by an external reference (not imported from Wikimedia project (P143) or similar properties). If the condition is verified, the population figure is displayed.
