Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is incomplete because it needs syntax to help people use it in article. Please help to improve the template, or discuss the issue on the talk page.

Usage

Blank templates

See Template:Geobox/type for descriptions of each feature type: Protected area, Region, River, Settlement, etc.

Blank templates for each feature type:

Template:Geobox/type/all – using all fields
Template:Geobox/type/bell – using {{Geobox|Monument
Template:Geobox/type/building – using {{Geobox|Building
Template:Geobox/type/nature – using {{Geobox|Protected area
Template:Geobox/type/range – using {{Geobox|Range
Template:Geobox/type/region – using {{Geobox|Region
Template:Geobox/type/river – using {{Geobox|River
Template:Geobox/type/settlement – using {{Geobox|Settlement
Template:Geobox/type/valley – using {{Geobox|Valley

Examples

See the following for examples of template usage:

Template:Geobox/sample – using all fields
Template:Geobox/doc/Protected area – using {{Geobox|Protected area
Template:Geobox/doc/Range – using {{Geobox|Range
Template:Geobox/doc/Region – using {{Geobox|Region
Template:Geobox/doc/River – using {{Geobox|River
Template:Geobox/doc/Settlement – using {{Geobox|Settlement

Parameters

A full list of the parameters available can be found at Template:Geobox/legend#Fields.

Purpose

These geoboxes were created:

To provide a means for creating consistently-formatted tables and summarizing information
To improve navigation between articles within closely-related subjects
To maximize the ease of creating and upgrading infoboxes
To improve the ease of transferring information to other language Wikipedias by using standardized, database-like fields

Features

no need to format the input data in any way; it is handled by the template
automated locator dot placement on maps, based on coordinates or X/Y values
automated unit conversion from metric to imperial or reverse
automated wikilinking
additional fields
background maps
foldable list on all multiple fields
international categories, (e.g., World Heritage Site), eliminating the need for a second infobox on the same page

Tracking categories

Category:Geobox usage tracking

Other guidelines

This general, multi-purpose geobox template duplicates features contained in various other, more specific geography and place infobox templates (like {{Infobox settlement}} for settlements, and {{Infobox protected area}} for protected areas. Editors should not change from one to the other without good reason or broad consensus.

The use of this template for mountains is deprecated. Use {{Infobox mountain}} instead. All instances have been replaced.
The use of this template for mountain ranges is deprecated. Use {{Infobox mountain range}} instead. All instances have been replaced.
The use of this template for provinces is deprecated. Use {{Infobox settlement}} instead. The former instances have been replaced.
