टेम्पलेट:Coord missing/doc

This template is used to mark articles without geolocation data (coordinates) and is easily converted, by adding them, into {{coord}}.

Usage

{{Coord missing|region name}}

Parameters

• region name

Either one of the country names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by country, or a smaller area, such as a state or province, where that sub-subcategory exists or is warranted. Where a particular country cannot be identified, one of the continent names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by continent should be used instead.

The categories are hidden categories. To view hidden categories, one needs to activate them in Special:Preferences. Under "Appearance", there is "Show hidden categories".

Removal of template

The template should be removed when coordinates are added to the article.

A bot occasionally removes it from all articles that already use {{coor URL}}.

Adding coordinates

Quick how to
To add 57°18′22″N 4°27′32″W 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 title.
To add 44.112°N 87.913°W / 44.112; -87.913 to the top of an article, use either {{Coord|44.112|N|87.913|W|display=title}} or {{Coord|44.112|-87.913|display=title}} These coordinates are in decimal degrees.
Degrees, minutes and seconds must 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). 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 (landmark or city(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=title to display at the top of the article only, or |display=inline,title to display in both places. name name=X to label the place on maps (default is PAGENAME) Thus: {{Coord|44.117|-87.913|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 any Persondata or Defaultsort templates, or Categories. For full details, refer to {{Coord/doc}}. Additional guidance is available: obtaining coordinates, converting coordinates

• Obtain the coordinates
• Use the appropriate infobox parameters, or {{coord}}.
• Follow the Manual of Style.
• Please don't be overly precise.
