Templat:WikidataCoord/doc

This template takes geographic coordinate data in the form provided by Wikidata (dms), formats the data into the form required by Template:Coord, and then calls Template:Coord to create links to GeoHack. The basic form is:

{{WikidataCoord|wikidata page name|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}

• wikidata page name – unnamed positional parameter is the Wikidata page name (starting with Q). Default is the current page.
• coordinate parameters – passed through to Template:Coord unmodified; see §Usage at Template:Coord
• template parameters – passed through to Template:Coord unmodified; see §Usage at Template:Coord
  • |display= behavior is different from Template:Coord:
    • when |display= is not present, the rendered coordinates are displayed at the top of the page (equivalent to |display=title):

      {{WikidataCoord|Q218501}} → (display at top of page). Only for these combinations the use of this template is restricted:

    • when |display= is present but empty, the rendered coordinates are displayed in line (equivalent to |display=inline):

      {{WikidataCoord|Q24012602|display=}} → 53°40′36″N 112°49′43″W

    • to make the coordinates visible for mobile users, one would use |display=inline,title so that it will display within an infobox and at the top of the page of an article.

Example

For an article that has a |coordinates= parameter within an infobox, use:

|coordinates={{WikidataCoord|display=inline,title}}
