}} 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 ("_"):
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.
