Quick how to
To add Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found. to the top of an article, use {{Coord}}, thus:
{{Coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|display=title}}
These coordinates are in degrees, minutes, and seconds of arc.
"title" means that the coordinates will be displayed next to the article's title at the top of the page and before any other text or images.
To add Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found. to the top of an article, use either
{{Coord|44.1124|N|87.9130|W|display=title}}
(which does not require minutes or seconds but does require the user to specify north/ south and east/west) or
{{Coord|44.1124|-87.9130|display=title}}
(in which the north and east are presumed by positive values while the south and west are negative ones) These coordinates are in decimal degrees.
- Degrees, minutes and seconds, when used, must each be separated by a pipe ("|").
- Map datum must be WGS84 (except for off-Earth bodies).
- Avoid excessive precision (0.0001° is <11 m, 1″ is <31 m).
- Maintain consistency of decimal places or minutes/seconds between latitude and longitude.
- Latitude (N/S) must appear before longitude (E/W).
Optional coordinate parameters follow the longitude and are separated by an underscore ("_"):
- dim:
dim:N (viewing diameter in metres) - region:
region:R (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 code) - type:
type:T (landmarkorcity(30,000), for example)
Other optional parameters are separated by a pipe ("|"):
- display
|display=inline(the default) to display in the body of the article only,|display=titleto display at the top of the article only, or|display=inline,titleto display in both places.
- name
name=X to label the place on maps (default is PAGENAME)
Thus: {{Coord|44.1172|-87.9135|dim:30_region:US-WI_type:event
|display=inline,title|name=accident site}}
Use |display=title (or |display=inline,title) once per article, for the subject of the article, where appropriate.
- Per WP:ORDER, the template is placed in articles after any navigation templates, but before all Categories, including the {{DEFAULTSORT}} template.
- For full details, refer to {{Coord/doc}}.
- Additional guidance is available: obtaining coordinates, converting coordinates
