Template:NESA
Provides a standard citation for using the National Electronic Sectional Appendix as a reference, as many rail articles do. No longer a footnote.
Usage
{{NESA}}{{NESA|region=|access-date=|version=}}
When the region parameter is provided, a footnote about that specific data set is generated. All the below examples use {{today}} for the access date and March26 for the version. The region codes are the same as those used by {{NESA}}:
{{NESA|region=Anglia}}:

When no region parameter is provided, or when an invalid region is provided, a generic footnote is generated with an error:
{{NESA|version=March26}}:
"Error: unknown region """. National Electronic Sectional Appendix. Network Rail. 7 March 2026.{{NESA|region=xyz|version=March26}}:
"Error: unknown region "xyz"". National Electronic Sectional Appendix. Network Rail. 7 March 2026.
When the version is not specified or wrong, the following error is seen:
{{NESA|region=Anglia}}:
[Error: unknown version "" "Anglia Sectional Appendix"]. National Electronic Sectional Appendix. Network Rail. {{Cite journal}}: Check |url= value (help)
{{NESA|region=Anglia|version=January99}}:
[Error: unknown version "January99" "Anglia Sectional Appendix"]. National Electronic Sectional Appendix. Network Rail. {{Cite journal}}: Check |url= value (help)
