This is a documentation subpage for Template:Coordinates. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
This links directly to the Wikimedia Foundation Labs GeoHack mapping service. All that is required are decimal figures for Latitude N/W and Longitude S/E.
Example
Example: {{coordinates|{{PAGENAME}}|50.0505|N|2.6856|E|°}}
which renders as Latitude: Coordinates/doc°50.0505 / Longitude: N°2.6856
{{PAGENAME}}
provides the name of the page in the link to the map page- N/W = North and West (which only go with Latitude)
- S/E = South and East (which only go with Longitude)
- ° is purely for aesthetics in the rendered output of the link for the decimal degrees
