Map and coordinates

• The location map uses the value of the |coordinates= parameter. It was previously necessary to use individual parameters for latitude and longitude, but the format was obsoleted by an RfC in August 2016 (see Help:Coordinates in infoboxes).
• The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 region code can often be determined automatically, based on the country= and borough= parameters. This can be overridden by specifying region:XX or region:XX-ABC in the unnamed parameter after the coordinate values.

{{Infobox station
...
| coordinates         = <!-- {{Coord}} template -->
| map_type            = <!-- Location from Location map. -->
| map_overlay         = <!-- Overlay image file name, to be placed on top of the main map. Should have the same border coordinates. -->
| AlternativeMap      = <!-- Alternative map file name (changes background map, border coordinates are determined based on the map name); this is only recommended for use in templates. -->
| map_alt             = <!-- Alternative text for map image, see [[WP:ALT]] -->
| map_caption         = <!-- Map caption; for no caption leave it blank; if the parameter is omitted then the caption will be "Marker text (location map name)" -->
| map_size            = <!-- Width of map -->
| map_dot_label       = <!-- Text to be displayed next to dot on map image -->
| map_label_position  = <!-- Override automatic label positioning; valid values are left, right, top, bottom, or none -->
...
}}

External style template

An external style template may be used to allow the modification of display parameters. This can be the same template that is used in conjunction with Template:S-line, but may be a different template. The |style= parameter is used to specify the name of the template where the styling is defined; the template's name must end with the word "style", but this word must be omitted from the |style= parameter. For example, |style=Amtrak will use the {{Amtrak style}} template.

Parameter	Description
name_format	Formatting the station name in Infobox station
thcolor	Font color for table headings in Infobox station
thbgcolor	Background color for table headings in Infobox station

For systems which have an Adjacent stations module defined the |style2= parameter may be used to specify a sub-style within that system. For example, |style2=Amtrak old used with |style=Amtrak will return the pre-Acela Amtrak heritage colors from Module:Adjacent stations/Amtrak.

Embedding other infoboxes

The embedded= parameter can be used to embed another infobox with such capability like {{designation list}} and {{infobox NRHP}}.

Examples

This first example shows the infobox of Sinanju Station with the Korean names:

Sinanju Ch'ŏngnyŏn Station
Korean name
Hangul	신안주청년역
Hanja	新安州青年驛
Revised Romanization	Sinanju-cheongnyeonyeok
McCune–Reischauer	Sinanju-ch'ŏngnyŏnyŏk

{{Infobox station 
| name          = Sinanju Ch'ŏngnyŏn Station
| hangul        = 신안주청년역
| hanja         = {{linktext|新|安|州|青|年|驛}}
| mr            = Sinanju-ch'ŏngnyŏnyŏk
| rr            = Sinanju-cheongnyeonyeok
| image         = Sinanju Chongnyon Station.jpg
| image_caption = 
| borough       = [[Anju, South Pyongan|Anju]], [[South Pyongan Province]]

| coordinates   = 
| line          = [[Pyongui Line|P'yŏngŭi Line]]<br />[[Kaechon Line|Kaech'ŏn Line]]
}}

This second example from the Paso Robles (Amtrak station) article uses {{S-line}} in the |services= parameter, and the external style template:

Paso Robles
Location	800 Pine Street Paso Robles, California 93446
Owned by	City of Paso Robles
Line(s)	Coast Line
Platforms	1 side platform
Tracks	1
Services
Preceding station   Amtrak   Following station Salinas toward Seattle Coast Starlight San Luis Obispo toward Los Angeles

{{Infobox station
| style        = Amtrak
| name         = Paso Robles
| image        = Paso Robles Train Station.jpg
| address      = 800 Pine Street<br />[[Paso Robles, California]] 93446
| line         = [[Coast Line (UP)|Coast Line]]
| platform     = 1 side platform
| tracks       = 1
| owned        = City of Paso Robles
| services     =
{{s-rail|title=Amtrak}}
{{s-line|system=Amtrak|line=Coast Starlight|previous=Salinas|next=San Luis Obispo|type=R|type2=R}}
}}

Microformat

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

Sub-templates

If the place or venue has "established", "founded", "opened" or similar dates, use {{start date}} for the earliest of those dates unless the date is before 1583 CE.

If it has a URL, use {{URL}}.

Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.

Classes

hCard uses HTML classes including:

• adr
• agent
• category
• county-name
• extended-address
• fn
• label
• locality
• nickname
• note
• org
• region
• street-address
• uid
• url
• vcard

Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:

• geo
• latitude
• longitude

Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.

Precision

When giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name= parameter.
