[edit] Parameters

Parameter Description
name The common name of the church.
fullname The full name of the church, if this is different from its common name. For instance, Westminster Abbey can be placed in the "name" parameter, and The Collegiate Church of St Peter, Westminster in the "fullname" parameter.
color The background colour of the headings in the infobox. The colour may either be specified as a word (for example, "maroon") or as a hex triplet (for #CCCC99, type "#CCCC99"). There are currently no guidelines on the use of particular colours for particular Christian denominations; to discuss this matter, use the talk page. If no colour is specified, the default colour is a dark red (#CC6666).
image or img The name of an image file containing a photograph of the church. If the image is called "Image:WesleyMethodistChurch-sepiapostcard.jpg", just type "WesleyMethodistChurch-sepiapostcard.jpg". Do not include "Image:" or enclose the file name in double square brackets ("[[ ]]").
imagesize or img_size The width of the image in pixels (px). For example, if you wish the image to be 150px wide, type "150". Do not add "px" after the number. If no number is stated, the width defaults to 220px for an image for a portrait image (i.e., one the width of which is shorter than the height) and 300px for a landscape image (one the width of which is longer than the height).
caption or img_capt The caption for the image.
landscape Indicate "yes" if the image has a landscape orientation, that is, if its width is longer than its height.
denomination The denomination of the church; for example, "Anglican", "Methodist", "Presbyterian", "Roman Catholic". If possible, link the denomination to an appropriate article using double square brackets.
diocese The diocese that the church is located in, if any.
parish The parish that the church is located in, if any.
division If a system other than that of dioceses and parishes is used for the church, these fields can be used to indicate the geographical division and subdivision that the church is located in, for example, "North Carolina Annual Conference", "Tennessee Baptist Convention".
subdivision
founded_date The dates when the church was founded, constructed, dedicated, closed and/or demolished. If full dates are available, they should be set out like this: "[[6 February]] [[1885]]" or "[[February 6]], [[1885]]". Individual years (e.g., "1908") need not be linked. The starting and ending years or dates of a time period should be separated by an en dash, like this: "1907–1908"; "12 January 190631 July 1907". To insert an en dash, either type "–" or click on the appropriate symbol in the character insertion table under the edit window.
constructed_date
dedicated_date
