Quick guide

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 44.112°N 86.913°W, use one of {{coord|44.112|N|87.913|W|display=title}} {{coord|44.112|-87.913|display=title}}
Values (including degrees, minutes and seconds) are separated by a pipe ("|"). Latitude (N/S) before longitude (E/W). Map datum is WGS84. Please don't be overly precise (0.0001° is <11 m, 1′′ is <31 m).
Optional parameters: region: region:XX_ (uses ISO 3166-2 code) type: type:XXX display: |display=inline,title or variant Full example: {{coord|44.112|-87.913|region:US-WI_type:landmark|display=inline,title}}
For full details on the use of {{coord}}, see Template:Coord See also: Obtaining coordinates, coordinate conversion

Purpose

This template, {{coord}}, produces a link to a list of map sources, based on the geographical coordinates and other parameters, and provides a standardized notation for the coordinates.

The template is for WGS84 geographical coordinates (latitude;longitude) on Earth, which can be entered in either decimal notation, or degrees/minutes/seconds parameters, with the appropriate precision.

It links to https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Template:Coord&params=, then displays the coordinates. Clicking the blue globe activates the WikiMiniAtlas (needs Javascript).

The template outputs data in:

• Degree/minutes/seconds ("DMS", precision is degrees, or degrees/minutes, or degrees/minutes/seconds, based on input). Some conversions from decimal degrees to dms need fixing (see talk)
• Decimal (precision by number of decimal places, based on input)
• Geo microformat.

{{coord}} is used by tools which parse the raw Wikipedia database dumps, such as Google Earth. To ensure that the coordinates are parsed correctly display=title must be used. See How do I get my Wikipedia article to show up in the Google Earth Geographic Web layer?. The template must not be modified without prior discussion.

For articles which have no coordinates, but need them, use {{coord missing}}.

See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Geographical coordinates.

Superseded templates

This single template supersedes {{coor d}}, {{coor dm}}, {{coor dms}}, {{coor at d}}, {{coor at dm}}, {{coor at dms}}, {{coor title d}}, {{coor title dm}}, {{coor title dms}}, and the Geolinks and Mapit templates. All parameters can be used as before - see Usage.

Examples:

Usage

{{coord|latitude|longitude|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
{{coord|dd|N/S|dd|E/W|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
{{coord|dd|mm|N/S|dd|mm|E/W|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
{{coord|dd|mm|ss|N/S|dd|mm|ss|E/W|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}

There are two kinds of parameters, all optional:

• Coordinate parameters: Recognised by the map server, given in the format parameter:value and separated from each other with the underscore character '_'. Common coordinate parameters include type, region, and scale. See coordinate parameters for a comprehensive list.

• Template parameters: Used by the template itself, given in the format parameter=value and separated from each other with the pipe character '|'. The supported template parameters are display, name and format.
  • display can be one of the following:
    • display=inline - Display the coordinate inline (default)
    • display=title - Display the coordinate by the article title (replaces {{coor title dms}} family), shortcut: display=t
    • display=inline,title - Display the coordinate both inline and at title (replaces {{coor at dms}} family)
      Note: using the title attribute indicates that the coordinates apply to the article, and not just one of (perhaps many) places mentioned in it — so it should only be omitted in the latter case. display=title,inline works also. Shortcut: display=it
  • format can be used to force dec or dms coordinate display for all readers
  • name can be used to annotate inline coordinates for display in map services and other external use. It should not be used with coordinates in the article title or within an infobox, as in those cases the name is implicit from the article title.

Coordinate parameters

Following the geographical coordinate, further parameters can optionally be supplied, separated by underscores. This will help in finding suitable map resources, and will become more important when the Wikimaps become fully functional.

type:T

scale:N

region:R

globe:G

Incorrect uses and maintenance category

The template has a few input checks built in. Basic errors display the message on Coord/input/ERROR (see Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Coord/input/ERROR for pages to fix)

A series of other input errors categorize the pages in the maintenance category Coord template needing repair. See the category description for more details. There are currently 0 pages in that category.

Coordinates in PDF

For the generation of the PDF version, printed books and Open Office export format, two templates are substituted for the regular templates:

• Template:Coord/display/title/Print for {{Coord/display/title}}
• Template:Coord/link/Print for {{Coord/link}}

Samples are available at:

• Help:Books/Feedback/Tests/coord 1
• Help:Books/Feedback/Tests/coord 2

Class names

The class names geo, latitude and longitude are used to generate the microformat and MUST NOT be changed.

Template Data

This template uses overloading which does not work well with the VisualEditor/TemplateData. Consider using "Edit source" instead of the visual editor until this defect is corrected.

TemplateData for Coord嘅TemplateData

Encodes the latitude and longitude coordinates of a location, provides a link to map of the location. This template does not work well with the Visual Editor.
