Summary: Passing a template parameter into a query throws an
error

Hi.
I have a number of queries that I use on a lot of pages. Rather than put the
query into every page, it would be much easier to create a template with the
query in it and then pass in the required parameters.
An example using the cities theme.
I have a cities query that is used on a number of pages. So in each page that
uses it I simply have:
{{City Query|Berlin}} (or whatever city I want - this is a trivial example).
The City Query template contains:
{{#ask:
[[Category:Cities]]
[[City::{{{1|}}}]]
|?Population
|?Mayor
|?Size
|?Twinned with
|?Has a river
}}
However, {{City Query|Berlin}} throws the error:
"The part "]]" of the query was not understood. Results might not be as
expected."
and the ask returns all cities in the cities category, not just Berlin.
Surely this is just a simple passing issue that can be easily fixed?
It would be very powerful to be able to pass in parameters to a query like this
and would also result in cleaner pages without duplicating almost identical
queries everywhere.
I am using SMW 1.5.1.
