Parameter descriptions
[rætta wikitekst]This table describes all parameters which can be used in building an waterfall infobox. Only the name
parameter must be assigned a value. Use the {{convert}} template for units. A glossary of waterfall related terms can be found at the World Waterfall Database.
Field name | Description |
---|---|
name |
Required. The name of the waterfall. It will be displayed at the top of the infobox. In most cases this should be the same as the article name less any disambiguation. For example, if the article title is Selfoss (waterfall) then name=Selfoss .
|
alt_name |
If there is a common English name for the waterfall use it for the name parameter. This parameter can be used to display the name in the local language or for an alternate English name if it is commonly used. Italics should not be used. See MOS:ITALIC.
|
photo |
The name of an image file to be displayed. No special formatting is needed. |
photo_width |
Used to change the display width of the image. The default and maximum value is 275 pixels. Images with a horizontal orientation (landscape mode) will generally display well at the default setting. An image with vertical orientation (portrait mode) may need to be adjusted to 180 or 220. For example, photo_width=200 and not photo_width=200px .
|
photo_alt |
Alt text for the photo, for visually impaired readers. See WP:ALT. |
photo_caption |
The caption that will appear below the image if one is required. |
Map related parameters | |
map |
The name of the map to be displayed. See Map display methods. |
map_width |
Used to change the display width of the map. The default width is 240 pixels, and the maximum width is 275 pixels. See photo_width above.
|
map_alt |
Alt text for the map. See WP:ALT. |
map_caption |
The caption that appears below the map if one is required. |
map_label |
A text message that will be displayed next to the mark. Works with label_position below. This is not functional when using the XY coordinates method for map display.
|
map_label_position |
Specifies the position of a label with respect to the mark. Valid values are left , right , top and bottom . See label above.
|
relief |
Selects a relief map when assigned any value. This option is only available for a small number of location map templates and is not functional when using the XY coordinates method. See Map display methods. |
mark |
The image used for the mark on a map. The default is Red pog.svg. See here for other images. |
x y |
Specifies the position of the location marker on a map image. The coordinates of the marker in pixels based on a map with a width of 1000 pixels. The template will scale these values for proper display. See below. |
x% y% |
Specifies the position of the location marker on a map image. x% specifies the percentage of the distance across the image from the left edge and y% specifies the percentage of the distance down from the top edge. See below.
|
Coordinate related parameters | |
grid_ref_UK |
If the waterfall is in Great Britain, the British grid reference. For waterfalls outside of Great Britain, this field is inapplicable. |
grid_ref_Ireland |
If the waterfall is in Ireland (whether Northern Ireland or the Republic), the Irish grid reference. For waterfalls outside Ireland, this field is inapplicable. |
coords |
For the {{coord}} template. Will not generate a location mark if a map template is used. When this option is used the type , region , scale , source , format and display parameters are not functional but this data can be entered in the coord template. The recommended values are type:waterbody and display=inline,title .
|
coords_ref |
Can be used with either coordinate display method above. Strongly recommended. Specify a citation for the coordinates using <ref>...</ref> tags.
|
map |
The area covered by a location map template. |
map_caption |
Caption displayed below the map if necessary. |
label |
A text message that will be displayed next to the marker. Works with label_position below. Seldom used.
|
label_position |
Specifies the position of a label with respect to the marker. Valid values are left , right , top and bottom . See label above.
|
mark |
The image to use for the marker. The default is Red pog.svg. See Template:Infobox map#Marks for more information. |
marker_size |
The display width of the marker image in pixels. The default is 8. |
lat_d |
The degrees of latitude. This value can be specified as a decimal degree and when this format is used minutes and seconds should not be specified. See below |
lat_m |
The minutes of latitude. |
lat_s |
The seconds of latitude. |
lat_NS |
N if north of the equator, S if south of the equator. Other values will be disregarded. |

Type is one way to specify the scale of maps generated by external map websites. See WP:COORD TYPE for valid values. The default value is landmark which is most appropriate for caves. This parameter and the three below help GeoHack in selecting suitable map resources.
|
scale |
Determines the zoom factor for external map websites. See WP:COORD SCALE. Using scale=50000 will change the zoom factor to 1:50,000.
|
region |

Map display methods
[rætta wikitekst]There are three methods by which maps showing a marker can be generated.
Display a marker on a map using a template and geographic coordinates
[rætta wikitekst]A marker can be superimposed on a map using one of a set of special map templates. To display a marker the geographic coordinates must be specified using the parameters lat_d
, long_d
, etc. See the documentation for {{Location map}}. The parameters for this template map to a subset of the parameters used by {{Location map}}. A map template can be found using these sources:
- List of templates - Many of the listed items are redirects and a few templates may not function as expected.
- Category:Location map templates - templates sorted by category.
- Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Location map/Info - a search that might help.
- Special:Prefixindex/Template:Location map - another search that might help.
All of the names begin with the words "Location map" followed by the area covered. The value you need to specify is the area name. The map template for the Canada is Location map Canada. In this case specify map=Canada
.

Example using geographic coordinates | |
Koordinatir | 60°00′00″N 102°00′00″W / 60.00000°N 102.00000°W |
{{Infobox waterfall | name = Four Corners, Canada | map = Canada | map_caption = Example using geographic coordinates | lat_d = 60 | lat_m = 00 | lat_s = 00 | lat_NS = N | long_d = 102 | long_m = 00 | long_s = 00 | long_EW = W }}
Display a marker on any map image using the x
and y
parameters
[rætta wikitekst]The values for the x
and y
parameters are the pixel coordinates of the location mark when the image is scaled to a width of 1000 pixels.
x
is the pixel offset for the mark from the left edge of an image 1000px wide.y
is the pixel offset for the mark from the top edge of an image 1000px wide.
There are at least two ways of obtaining these values:
- Download the image from the image's file page to your computer. Open the image in a graphics editor, such as GIMP or XnView. Scale (resize) the image to a width of 1000px and then note the x, y coordinates when the cursor points to the desired location. Use these values directly.
- Download the image from the image's file page to your computer. Open the image in any image viewer that displays the coordinates of the cursor position, such as Paint from Microsoft. Note the x, y coordinates when the cursor points to the location. Then:
- 1000 · x'/w = x and 1000 · y'/w = y
- where x' and y' are the cursor coordinates, w is the width of the image displayed on your computer and x and y are the values to assign to the
x
andy
parameters.
- where x' and y' are the cursor coordinates, w is the width of the image displayed on your computer and x and y are the values to assign to the
Four Corners, Canada | |
---|---|
Example using the x and y parameters |
{{Infobox waterfall | name = Four Corners, Canada | map = Canada location map.svg | map_caption = Example using the x and y parameters | x = 369 | y = 487 }}
Display a marker on any map image using the x%
and y%
parameters
[rætta wikitekst]- x% specifies the percent of the distance across the image from the left edge.
- y% specifies the percent of the distance down from the top edge.
In the following example the marker is 36.9% of the way across and 57.4% of the way down.
Four Corners, Canada | |
---|---|
Example using the x% and y% parameters |
{{Infobox waterfall | name = Four Corners, Canada | map = Relief map of Canada.png | map_caption = Example using the x% and y% parameters | x% = 36.9 | y% = 57.4 }}
