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= and borough= parameters. This can be overridden by specifying region:XX or region: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

change

An 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

change

The embedded= parameter can be used to embed another infobox with such capability like {{designation list}} and {{infobox NRHP}}.

Examples

change

This first example shows the infobox of Sinanju Station with the Korean names:

Sinanju Ch'ŏngnyŏn Station
General information
LocationAnju, South Pyongan Province

| line          = [[Pyongui Line|P'yŏngŭi Line]]<br />[[Kaechon Line|Kaech'ŏn Line]]
}}

This second example from the Paso Robles (Amtrak station) article uses {{S-line}} in the |services= parameter, and the external style template:

}}

Microformat

change

The 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

change

If 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

change

hCard 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

change

When giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name= parameter.

Tracking categories
