[edit] Parameters

Most fields are optional because they use m:ParserFunctions, which allows fields to be hidden if they do not have a value or shown if they do have a value.

Wiki links [[]] are fine in any of the Infobox fields except coordinates.

Please spend some time at the National Register of Historic Places WikiProject article and its talk page for standards on presenting names and other data.

  • image
    • The preferred image is a good, clear one of the Place discussed in the article. However, when such is not available, a map (as in the first entry) should be used.
  • imagesize - optional (default: 235px), width of top image
    • This parameter should not be placed in template without a value, i.e. | imagesize =
  • caption - optional, but a caption will not be shown if there is no image.
  • locator_x/locator_y
    • these fields are to be used in conjunction with the map
    • When replacing the map with an image, make sure to eliminate any pre-existing locator dot by making locator_x and locator_y blank
    • If you know the latitude and longitude of the place you can enter that instead and leave this blank for a location map to be generated automatically.
  • locmapin - optional locator map for "Template:Location map" (default: USA); shows full USA map by calling "{{Location map USA}}".
  • mapwidth - optional width (default: 220), don't add "px".
  • lat/long
    • If you have only degrees and minutes, set the seconds to "0".
    • If you do not specify an image, but do specify latitude and longitude, a locator map will be generated. This locator map will default to {{Location map USA}} unless the locmapin parameter is specified. See Template:Location map/doc for a list of states for which specific location maps are available.
  • location/nearest_city
    • If the Place is in a city/town, enter it and the state in this field. 
      (e.g., [[Orlando, Florida|Orlando]], [[Florida]])
      The "Nearest city" field may then be left blank.
    • If the Place is not in a city/town, enter the county and state in the "Location" field. 
      (e.g., [[Citrus County, Florida|Citrus County]], [[Florida]])
      Then fill in the "Nearest city" field as appropriate.
  • area - primarily for use with national parks, historic districts, and the like
  • built - when the site was constructed (specific date or approximate year/century/millennium, as appropriate), discovered, or first inhabited/used
  • architect - the name(s) of the architects or designers of the building(s) or structure(s)
  • added - when the site was added to the National Register
  • visitation_num & visitation_year - primarily for use with national parks and/or when such information is available
  • refnum - the reference number assigned by the National Register
  • governing_body - the specific federal/state/local agency or organization that administers the site (very optional, as it is often difficult to determine this; if unsure, please leave blank)

[edit] Finding coordinates for the locator dot

There is a simple template tool named {{Locator grid}} which you can use to help with pinpointing the x and y coordinates for a locator dot. If you're using a popular locator map, you can test with the list of examples already included in the usage and instructions page. If you know the latitude and longitude it may be easier to simply leave the image parameter blank and let the template generate a locator map off of the geographic coordinates.

[edit] Under the Hood

[edit] Sub-Templates

This template calls the following sub-templates:

  • {{Superimpose}} (talk) provides the ability to overlay the locator dot on the base image.
  • {{Coord}} (talk) formats the coordinates and makes the link to other mapping resources.
  • {{Location map}} (talk) is used when no image is specified, but lat and long are.
