...What should I do about the templates, if anything?
If it helps avoid confusion, tells us here what you plan to name the article when you publish it in the main Wiki.
From that name, an abbreviation can be derived that would be used to create public templates similar to those in your user-space. That way, it's clear(er) that the group of templates relates only to that article (or set of articles).
An example:
It you chose to name the article "A Big Table of Airport Information", then I would recommend using initials from that page name (ABTAI) to create and name these five templates in the public template-space:
ABTAI_RowFmt1 ....... which would be a copy of the code in ........ User: DaveNF2G/RowFmt1
ABTAI_RowFmt2 ....... which would be a copy of the code in ........ User: DaveNF2G/RowFmt2
ABTAI_RowFmt3 ....... which would be a copy of the code in ........ User: DaveNF2G/RowFmt3
ABTAI_RowFmt4 ....... which would be a copy of the code in ........ User: DaveNF2G/RowFmt4
ABTAI_RowFmt5 ....... which would be a copy of the code in ........ User: DaveNF2G/RowFmt5
And then, in the wiki-code for the article's page, use a text-editor to replace "User: DaveNF2G/" with "ABTAI_", and save the code into the newly created page named "A Big Table of Airport Information".
This way, the published article uses published templates, and you can still edit the draft-article in your profile using the templates in your profile, if you are planning any major ("big") changes to the table, it's shape, it's length, etc. Minor (or major) changes can be easily done directly to the published article, if that's what you wish. But, having the one in your user-space let's you develop, using trial-and-error methods as needed, without impacting the published article or its templates.
Edit 4:Your draft article is for "Albany International Airport". If you plan to develop other articles for other airports, but plan to use the same exact templates so that the tables behave similarly, then maybe a more generalized abbreviation would be appropriate for the template-names, so that their purpose is clear, but also so that it is clear that they (the templates) apply to a set of multiple articles.
...just a thought.
Edit:
I use this procedure for creating templates. Find the page/article that needs to use the template. Click "Edit" button on that article to go into edit mode. At an appropriate place in the article, put the template-call statement (similar to this: )
Code:
{{ABTAI_RowFmt1 | value 1 | value 2 | value 3 | value 4 | ... etc. }}
and place similar calls for each of the needed templates, so that every needed template has been called at least once in the article.
Then scroll-down to the bottom of the Edit screen, and click the "Preview" button. This renders the page (albeit messed-up since templates don't yet exist).
Scroll down to the bottom of the preview page and find the list of template-names (in red-text), with the word "edit" beside each. Right-click on the "edit" (open in new tab/window), and build each template successfully, before saving the main article. Keep (repeatedly) previewing the article as the templates are built, to make sure the article invokes the templates properly. When all works well, save the article.
Of course, it should go without saying that a back-up copy of the actual wiki-code for the article and for each template is saved somewhere else using a text-editor, so none is lost if the browser has a hiccup (like having your log-in timeout and close your edit session).
Hopefully, this explanation is not too confusing. Let me know if it is unclear, and I'll try to rephrase.
Edit 2: You can also create pages/templates in your user-space using a similar technique. Go to your User: DaveNF2G page; click Edit; put either a
Code:
[[User:DaveNF2G/My_Second_Article]]
(to create a new page) or
Code:
{{User:DaveNF2G/My_Next_Template}}
to create a template. (Please notice the square brackets [[ ]] vs curly braces {{ }} difference.) (Adjust the names as needed.)
In preview mode, this will render a red-text link which you then right-click (open in new tab/window) and create a new page/template as desired.
Again, sorry if grammar is lousy. Distractions exist at the moment. If you have questions, let us know.
Edit 3:
...But how is the article name derived?...
The article name is whatever you choose it to be. To create a new article, go to its parent page (like the related county page), click edit, and in the appropriate location, put your desired page name in-between double square brackets. To create the example page above, go to the parent (county) page and add this link
Code:
[[A Big Table of Airport Information]]
Then either in preview-mode or after saving the parent (county) page, you will see a red-link. Click the red-link to edit/create the new article page named "A Big Table of Airport Information". Copy/Paste the appropriate wiki-code into the newly created (empty) page, and then preview it. When previewed successfully, then save it.
Hope this helps,
