I am trying to create a new Coatstguard station to be listed in https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:HM_Coastguard_Stations for  HMCG Ballynacourty located on OS https://maps.nls.uk/view/247672575   but the instructions no longer work.

I assume this is an historical lifeboat station as I can find no details of it, only Ballinacourty light. Do you have details?
Look on the map that I linked in the question.

Opposite Dungarvan.
That does not tell me when the station was operational.

That does not matter.  The profile of the CG Boatman who served there will do that.  None of the other 131 categories have dates, apart from the few Watch Vessels where the decommissioning date is on record, and one Irish one that was torched by arsonists.
Apparently Ballinacourty Coastguard Station was  also burned down by the Irish Republician Army on the 8th August 1922. https://www.waterfordmuseum.ie/exhibit/web/DisplayImage/K0PiL2FIxDWXw/1/Ballinacourty_Coastguard_Station_In_Ruins.html
Look at the existing categories for guidance.

There ye go. A new learning experience! Well done.
More of a seniour moment.  It was I who wrote the instructions, but missed a key clause, which has now been edited in.
