Àdàkọ:Location map+
This template places one or more location marks on a map, with optional labels. It is in the same family of templates as the Location map template and the documentation for that template might be helpful.
This template uses a helper template, Location map~, one or more times to generate a mark for each location.
Usage
[àtúnṣe àmìọ̀rọ̀]{{Location map+ | {{{1}}} | caption = | alt = | width = | float = | border = | overlay_image = | AlternativeMap = | places = }} |
{{Location map~ | {{{1}}} | label = | position = | label_size = | background = | mark = | marksize = | link = | lat_deg = | lat_min = | lat_sec = | lat_dir = | lon_deg = | lon_min = | lon_sec = | lon_dir = }} |
Parameters
[àtúnṣe àmìọ̀rọ̀]Parameter | Description |
---|---|
{{{1}}} | Required. Use the name of the map as the first unnamed parameter. For example, to use Location map England specify England. See the examples. |
caption | The text of a caption to be displayed below the map. Specifying a caption will cause the map to be displayed with a frame. If caption is not defined, a default caption will be generated and the map will not be framed. If caption is defined but is not assigned a value the map will not be framed and no caption will be displayed. See the examples.
|
alt | Alt text for the map. See WP:ALT. |
width | Determines the width of the map in pixels. The default is 240px. For example width=250 and not width=250px .
|
float | Specifies the position of the map on the page. Valid values are left , right , center and none . The default is right .
|
border | Specifies the color of the 1px map border. The default is lightgrey. See Web colors. If set to none , no border will be generated. This parameter is seldom used.
|
overlay_image | Allows an overlay to be superimposed on the map. See this example. This parameter is seldom used. |
AlternativeMap | Allows the use of an alternative map. The image must have the same edge coordinates as the location map template. See this example. |
places | Specifies one or more place markers using Location map~ .
|
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
{{{1}}} | Required. Use the name of the map as the first unnamed parameter. For example to use Location map England specify England. See the examples. |
label | The text of the label to display next to the mark. A wiki link can be used. |
position | The position of the label relative to the mark. Valid values are left , right , top and bottom . The default is right .
|
label_size | The font size to use for the label as a percentage. The default is 90%. For example label_size=80 |
background | The background color to use for the label. See Web colors. By default the background color is inherited from the image behind the label. |
mark | The name of an image to display as the mark. The default is Red pog.svg. Go here and here for some examples. |
marksize | The size of the mark in pixels. The default is 8px. For example marksize=6 and not marksize=6px .
|
link | Specifies a wiki link which will be followed if the reader clicks on the mark. The name of the linked article is displayed when the mouse pointer hovers over the mark. |
lat_deg | Required. The degrees of latitude. This value can be specified using decimal degrees and when this format is used minutes and seconds should not be specified. |
lat_min | The minutes of latitude. |
lat_sec | The seconds of latitude. Usually not necessary. |
lat_dir | N if north of the equator, S if south of the equator. Other values will be disregarded. Not required if signed decimal decrees are used. |
lon_deg | Required. The degrees of longitude. This value can be specified using decimal degrees and when this format is used minutes and seconds should not be specified. |
lon_min | The minutes of longitude. |
lon_sec | The seconds of longitude. Usually not necessary. |
lon_dir | E if East of the prime meridian, W if west of the prime meridian. Other values will be disregarded. Not required if signed decimal decrees are used. |

Examples
[àtúnṣe àmìọ̀rọ̀]This example does not designate the caption
parameter. It demonstrates the use of the defaults. Notice that the default caption is the page name followed by the map name in parenthesis and that the label position is automatically adjusted if it is too close to an edge.
{{Location map+ | Australia | float = right | places = {{Location map~ | Australia | label = Sydney | lat_deg = -33.86 | lon_deg = 151.21 }} {{Location map~ | Australia | label = Melbourne | lat_deg = -37.81 | lon_deg = 144.96 }} }}
This example uses a designated but empty caption
. It demonstrates coordinates using decimal degrees and a 10px mark with a link.
{{Location map+ | France | width = 200 | float = right | caption = | places = {{Location map~ | France | label = Paris | position = top | link = Paris | lat_deg = 48.8567 | lon_deg = 2.3508 }} {{Location map~ | France | label = Marseille | position = top | link = Marseille | lat_deg = 43.2964 | lon_deg = 5.3610 }} }}
This example uses caption
with an assigned value. It demonstrates coordinates in degree, minute, second format, a relief map, label background color and linked labels.
{{Location map+ | USA2 | width = 300 | float = right | caption = Two cites in the United States | relief = 1 | places = {{Location map~ | USA2 | label = [[New York]] | position = left | background = white | mark = Cyan pog.svg | lat_deg = 43 | lon_deg = -75 }} {{Location map~ | USA2 | label = [[San Francisco]] | position = right | background = white | mark = Purple pog.svg | lat_deg = 37 | lat_min = 46 | lat_dir = N | lon_deg = 122 | lon_min = 25 | lon_dir = W }} }}
