Quick "how to"
To add the coordinates 57°18′22"N 4°27′32"W to the top of an article, use
{{coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|display=title}}
For decimal coordinates, such as 44.11°N 86.91°W, use one of
{{coord|44.11|N|87.91|W|display=title}}
{{coord|44.11|-87.91|display=title}}
Values (including degrees, minutes and seconds) are separated by a pipe ("|").
Latitude (N/S) before longitude (E/W)
