Parameter descriptions

This table describes all parameters which can be used in build park infobox. Only the name parameter must be assigned a value.

Field name	Description
name	Required. The name of the park. It will be displayed at the top of the infobox. In most cases this should be the same as the article name less any disambiguation. For example, if the article title is Hyde Park, London then name=Hyde Park.
alt_name	If there is a common English name for the park use it for the name parameter. This parameter can be used to display the name in the local language or for an alternate English name if it is commonly used. If you would like to italicize the text use wiki markup.
native_name	name in local language. If more than one, separate using {{plainlist}}.
native_name_lang	ISO 639-2 code e.g. "fr" for French. If more than one, use {{lang}} instead.
photo	The name of an image file to be displayed. No special formatting is needed.
photo_width	Can be used to change the display width of the image. The default width is 240 pixels and maximum is 272px,. Images with a horizontal orientation (landscape mode) will generally display well at the default setting. An image with vertical orientation (portrait mode) may need to be adjusted to 180px or less. For example, photo_width=200 and not photo_width=200px. This template allows photo_width=frameless. See Photo display parameters below.
photo_alt	Alt text for the photo, for visually impaired readers. See WP:ALT.
photo_caption	The caption that will appear below the image if one is required.
location	The location of the park. Don't be too precise. County, state and country are good in the USA. If the park is within a city specify the city, state and country. If the park is in multiple counties just list the state and country. For areas in other countries adjust accordingly.
nearest_city nearest_town	Recommended if the area is not within a city or town. It could be a city with a major airport or a large gateway town where supplies and lodging are available. Use the most appropriate parameter.
Map related parameters
map	The name of the map to be displayed. See Map display methods below.
map_width	Can change the display width the map. The default width is 240 pixels and maximum is 272px, but usually the map can be smaller. For example, map_width=200 and not map_width=200px.
map_alt	Alt text for the map. See WP:ALT.
map_caption	The caption that appears below the map if one is required.
label	A text message that will be displayed next to the mark. Works with label_position below. Seldom used.
label_position	Specifies the position of a label with respect to the mark. This is not functional when using the pixel coordinates method for map display. Valid values are left, right, top and bottom. See label above.
relief	Selects a relief map when assigned any value. This is not functional when using the pixel coordinates method for map display. See Map display methods.
mark	The image used for the mark on a map. The default is Red pog.svg. Look here for other images.
x y	Specifies the position of the location marker on a map image. The coordinates of the marker in pixels based on a map with a width of 1000 pixels. The template will scale these values for proper display. See below.
x% y%	Specifies the position of the location marker on a map image. x% specifies the percentage of the distance across the image from the left edge and y% specifies the percentage of the distance down from the top edge. See below.
Coordinate related parameters
grid_ref_UK	If the park is in Great Britain, the British grid reference. For parks outside of Great Britain, this field is not applicable and therefore should be removed if it is present.
grid_ref_Ireland	If the park is in Ireland (whether Northern Ireland or the Republic), the Irish grid reference. For parks outside Ireland, this field is not applicable and therefore should be removed if it is present.
coords	For the {{coord}} template. Will not generate a location mark if a map template is used. When this option is used the type, region, scale, source, format and display parameters are not functional but this data can be entered in the Coord template. The defaults should be type:landmark and display:inline,title.
lat_d	The degrees of latitude. This value can be specified as a decimal degree and when this format is used minutes and seconds should not be specified. See below.
lat_m	The minutes of latitude.
lat_s	The seconds of latitude.
lat_NS	N if north of the equator, S if south of the equator. Other values will be disregarded.
long_d	The degrees of longitude. This value can be specified as a decimal degree and when this format is used minutes and seconds should not be specified. See below.
long_m	The minutes of longitude.
long_s	The seconds of longitude.
long_EW	E if East of the prime meridian, W if west of the prime meridian. Other values will be disregarded.
coords_ref	Can be used with either coordinate display method above. Strongly recommended. Specify a citation for the coordinates using <ref>...</ref> tags.
coords_type	Type is one way to specify the scale of maps generated by external map websites. See type for valid values. The default value is landmark. If no type is appropriate consider using the scale parameter below.
scale	Determines the zoom factor for external map websites. See scale. The value is 1:10,000 for the default type which is landmark. Using scale=50000 will change the zoom to 1:50,000.
region	A country code. See ISO 3166-2:US, ISO 3166-2 and ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. For example, US-OR is the code for Oregon. This computer readable code is recommended. It will not be displayed. See region.
source	Source of the coordinate data. See source. For example, gnis or ngs, etc. It will not be displayed. Not all possible values are recognized.
format	Determines the format of the coordinates displayed. Valid values are dms for degrees, minutes and seconds, and dec for decimal degrees. The default value is dms.
display	Determines where the coordinates will be displayed. Valid values are inline and inline,title and their variants. The default is inline,title and is recommended.
Other parameters
area	Area of the protected park. Usually in acres or square miles for US locations and hectares or square kilometres elsewhere. The {{convert}} template should be used. Very small areas might be specified in square feet, square yards or square metres.
elevation	Elevation of the park if it is noteworthy. The {{convert}} template should be used.
authorized created established designated opened	The date the park was created. See below. Use {{start date}}. For example, for Yosemite National Park, use {{start date|1890|10|1}}.
closed	The date of closure or disestablishment, if applicable.
visitation_num	The number of visitors in a recent year if known.
visitation_year	The year during which the number of visitors was counted.

founder	The person who founded the park or garden.
designer	The person who designed the park or garden.
etymology	The etymology of parks name. Should be very brief or only included in the text of the article.
administrator manager operator owner	The agency or organization which controls or owns the park. See below.
budget	Owner/ operator's planned annual expenditure.
open	The hours, days, or months that the park is open.
status	The status of the park. e.g. "Closed for restoration", or "Closed due to budgetary considerations." Sometimes used as an alternative to open. e.g. "Open all year."
designation	The legal protection offered to the park.
awards	Any awards given to the park; for example, Green Flag Award in the UK.
disturbance	Threats to the park, e.g. logging, urban development.

Photo display parameters

The parameter photo_width allows several options:

Option	Description
photo_width=	If no value is assigned, the photo image will display with a width of 240px.
photo_width=<n>	Where n is any numeric value, the photo image will display with a width of n pixels. The maximum width is 272px.
photo_width=frameless	The photo image will display with a default width of 220px, however, if a user is logged in, they can change this value here. If this option is used, the upright parameter is made available. For example, |photo_width=frameless|upright=1.2 will cause the image to display with a width of (220 * 1.2)px or 264px. More information about this parameter can be found here.
photo_width=upright	The photo image will display with a default width of 170px. This is equivalent to [[File:Example.jpg|frameless|upright]] using wiki image syntax. More information about the upright option can be found here.

Alternate parameters

A few cells allow alternate parameter names which can be used to generate an appropriate label. Editors should probably not be overly concerned with using the correct label unless using the wrong label would be a blatant error.

To display the date the park was created use the most appropriate parameter below:

authorized → Authorized

created → Created

designated → Designated

established → Established

opened → Opened

To display the name of the entity which manages the park use the most appropriate parameter below:

administrator → Administered by

manager → Managed by

operator → Operated by

owner → Owned by

Map display methods

Any image of a map showing the location of the park can be used. There are three methods by which maps showing a marker can be generated.

Display a marker on a map using a template and geographic coordinates

A marker can be superimposed on a map using one of a set of special map templates. To display a marker the geographic coordinates must be specified using the parameters lat_d, long_d, etc. See the documentation for {{Location map}}. The parameters for this template map to a subset of the parameters used by {{Location map}}. A map template can be found using these sources:

List of templates - Many of the listed items are redirects and a few templates may not function as expected.

Category:Location map templates - templates sorted by category.

Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Location map/Info - a search that might help.

Special:Prefixindex/Template:Location map - another search that might help.

All of the names begin with the words "Location map" followed by the area covered. The value you need to specify is the area name. The map template for the Canada is Location map Canada. In this case specify map=Canada.

Four Corners, Canada
Mynd:Canada Example using geographic coordinates
Koordinatir	60°00′00″N 102°00′00″W

{{Infobox park
| name = Four Corners, Canada
| map = Canada
| map_caption = Example using geographic coordinates
| lat_d = 60 | lat_m = 00 | lat_s = 00 | lat_NS = N
| long_d = 102 | long_m = 00 | long_s = 00 | long_EW = W
}}

Display a marker on any map image using the x and y parameters

The values for the x and y parameters are the pixel coordinates of the location mark when the image is scaled to a width of 1000 pixels.

x is the pixel offset for the mark from the left edge of an image 1000px wide.

y is the pixel offset for the mark from the top edge of an image 1000px wide.

There are at least two ways of obtaining these values:

1. Download the image from the image's file page to your computer. Open the image in a graphics editor, such as GIMP or XnView. Scale (resize) the image to a width of 1000px and then note the x, y coordinates when the cursor points to the desired location. Use these values directly.
2. Download the image from the image's file page to your computer. Open the image in any image viewer that displays the coordinates of the cursor position, such as Paint from Microsoft. Note the x, y coordinates when the cursor points to the location. Then:

1000 · x'/w = x  and  1000 · y'/w = y

where x' and y' are the cursor coordinates, w is the width of the image displayed on your computer and x and y are the values to assign to the x and y parameters.

Four Corners, Canada
Example using the x and y parameters

{{Infobox park
| name = Four Corners, Canada
| map = Canada location map.svg
| map_caption = Example using the x and y parameters
| x = 369
| y = 487
}}

Display a marker on any map image using the x% and y% parameters

x% specifies the percent of the distance across the image from the left edge.

y% specifies the percent of the distance down from the top edge.

In the following example the marker is 36.9% of the way across and 57.4% of the way down.

Four Corners, Canada
Example using the x% and y% parameters

{{Infobox park
| name = Four Corners, Canada
| map = Relief map of Canada.png
| map_caption = Example using the x% and y% parameters
| x% = 36.9
| y% = 57.4
}}
