This template employs intricate features of template syntax.
You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages.
Remember that you can conduct experiments, and should test all improvements, in either the general Template sandbox or your user space before changing anything here.
Template intended to simplify adding a standardized and formatted caption below a map indicating the location of something (e.g. a country), possibly referring to the map's main region and optionally also to a shown subregion. Original use within infoboxes (e.g. see articles on European countries). For a complete set of elements of reasonable length, a width of (minimally) 250px (without extra padding or margins) should be available.
Neither linked nor styled prefix e.g. "the" (for articles named e.g. "United Kingdom", "Czech Republic", "Netherlands").
–
country
Only if the country name at the map should not be identical to the article name (e.g. "Metropolitan France").
Template sets [[...]], thus if identical to article name (default) in article shown in bold instead of linked.
<article name >
location
Only if colour is not used and its default is not appropriate: Description identifying country's location (e.g. "circled in inset")
This parameter must never be empty; "none" suppresses it. If passed, location_color cannot be shown.
–
location_color
Only if description is not used: Colour identifying country's location; "none" suppresses the default.
orange
region
Name (or equally extremely short description) for approximately the entire area depicted by the map.
special: "[[Antarctica]]" shown as "on Antarctica",
special: "[[Middle East]]", "[[Arctic Circle]]" or "[[Pacific Ocean]]" shown as "in the ...",
special: versus any other: shown as "in ...", e.g. "[[Africa]]" shown as "in Africa"
–
region_color
Colour identifying region; "none" suppresses the default.
white
subregion
Subregion indicated within region (only if used: aligning both region and subregion lines to the left, else single region line centered as top line)
Must not occur without parameter region.
special: "[[EU]]" or "[[European Union]]" shown as "in the European Union",
special: versus any other: shown as "in ...", e.g. "the [[Caucasus]]" shown as "in the Caucasus"
–
subregion_color
Colour identifying subregion; "none" suppresses showing the default.
tan
legend
Filename of image providing a map legend.

Note
If country, region or subregion is exactly the name of a page in article space, the template automatically creates a link to it. You can still put a link here manually, using the usual syntax.
Typical sample for an article on a European Union member that needs no "the" before its name, for otherwise identical output: {{map caption |region=Europe |subregion=EU |legend=European location legend en.png}}
Infobox usage of code (as intended) — in which the alignment, the padding/margins, and font are rendered differently (this template adjusts for that infobox):
Sample for article named 'Armenia', about a non-European country
{{Infobox Country or territory|
|common_name = Armenia
|image_map = Europe location ARM.png
|map_caption = {{map caption}} |(some required infobox parameters omitted from sample)
}}
Sample for article named 'Belarus', about a non-member of the EU
{{Infobox Country or territory|
|common_name = Belarus
|image_map = Europe location BLR.png
|map_caption = {{map caption |region=Europe |legend=European location legend en.png}} |(some required infobox parameters omitted from sample)
}}
Sample for article named 'Netherlands', about a member of the EU
{{Infobox Country or territory|
|common_name = the Netherlands
|image_map = EU location NED.png
|map_caption = {{map caption |countryprefix=the |region=Europe |subregion=the [[European Union]] |legend=European location legend en.png}} |(some required infobox parameters omitted from sample)
}}
