Map and coordinates
change- The location map uses the value of the
|coordinates=
parameter. It was previously necessary to use individual parameters for latitude and longitude, but the format was obsoleted by an RfC in August 2016 (see Help:Coordinates in infoboxes). - The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 region code can often be determined automatically, based on the
country=
andborough=
parameters. This can be overridden by specifyingregion:XX
orregion:XX-ABC
in the unnamed parameter after the coordinate values.
{{Infobox station ... | coordinates = <!-- {{Coord}} template --> | map_type = <!-- Location from Location map. --> | map_overlay = <!-- Overlay image file name, to be placed on top of the main map. Should have the same border coordinates. --> | AlternativeMap = <!-- Alternative map file name (changes background map, border coordinates are determined based on the map name); this is only recommended for use in templates. --> | map_alt = <!-- Alternative text for map image, see [[WP:ALT]] --> | map_caption = <!-- Map caption; for no caption leave it blank; if the parameter is omitted then the caption will be "Marker text (location map name)" --> | map_size = <!-- Width of map --> | map_dot_label = <!-- Text to be displayed next to dot on map image --> | map_label_position = <!-- Override automatic label positioning; valid values are left, right, top, bottom, or none --> ... }}
External style template
changeAn external style template may be used to allow the modification of display parameters. This can be the same template that is used in conjunction with Template:S-line, but may be a different template. The |style=
parameter is used to specify the name of the template where the styling is defined; the template's name must end with the word "style", but this word must be omitted from the |style=
parameter. For example, |style=Amtrak
will use the {{Amtrak style}}
template.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
name_format | Formatting the station name in Infobox station |
thcolor | Font color for table headings in Infobox station |
thbgcolor | Background color for table headings in Infobox station |
Embedding other infoboxes
changeThe embedded=
parameter can be used to embed another infobox with such capability like {{designation list}} and {{infobox NRHP}}.

Microformat
changeThe HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Sub-templates
changeIf the place or venue has "established", "founded", "opened" or similar dates, use {{start date}} for the earliest of those dates unless the date is before 1583 CE.
If it has a URL, use {{URL}}.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
Classes
changehCard uses HTML classes including:
- adr
- agent
- category
- county-name
- extended-address
- fn
- label
- locality
- nickname
- note
- org
- region
- street-address
- uid
- url
- vcard
Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:
- geo
- latitude
- longitude
Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.
Precision
changeWhen giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name=
parameter.
