Template:Infobox settlement

Template documentationviewedithistorypurge

This template should be used to produce an Infobox for human settlements (cities, towns, villages, communities) as well as other administrative districts, counties, provinces, et cetera—in fact, any subdivision below the level of a country, for which {{Infobox country}} should be used. Parameters are described in the table below. For questions, see the talk page. For a US city guideline, see WP:USCITIES.

The template is aliased or used as a sub-template for several infobox front-end templates.

Usage

• Important: Please enter all numeric values in a raw, unformatted fashion. References and {{citation needed}} tags are to be included in their respective section footnotes field. Numeric values that are not "raw" may create an "Expression error". Raw values will be automatically formatted by the template. If you find a raw value is not formatted in your usage of the template, please post a notice on the discussion page for this template.
• An expression error may also occur when any coordinate parameter has a value, but one or more coordinate parameters are blank or invalid.
• To specify CSS class "X" should be applied to an image, append to the filename: {{!}}class=X

Parameter names and descriptions

Name and transliteration
Parameter name	Usage	Description
name	optional	This is the usual name in English. If it's not specified, the infobox will use the official_name as a title unless this too is missing, in which case the page name will be used.
native_name	optional	Name or names in the local language, if different from 'name', and if not English. This parameter may be used for the name in the de facto local language (e.g. German for Munich). Per the 2023 RfC, it may also be used for names used by First Nations/Indigenous peoples, regardless of whether they are the dominant ethnic group in the location.
native_name_lang	optional	Use ISO 639-1 code, e.g. "fr" for French. If there is more than one dominant name, in different languages, enter those names using {{lang}}, instead.
other_name	optional	For places with other commonly used names like Bombay or Saigon
type	optional	Any type can be entered, such as City, Town, Village, Hamlet, Municipality, Reservation, etc. If set, will be displayed under the names. Might also be used as a label for total population/area (defaulting to City), if needed to distinguish from Urban, Rural or Metro (if urban, rural or metro figures are not present, the label is Total unless total_type is set).
official_name	optional	The official name in English. Avoid using official_name if it leads to redundancy with name and type. Use official_name if the official name is unusual or cannot be simply deduced from the name and settlement type.
short_description	optional	Set to no to suppress the Short description generated by the infobox.
Transliteration(s)
translit_lang1	optional	Will place the "entry" before the word "transliteration(s)". Can be used to specify a particular language like in Dêlêg or one may just enter "Other", like in Gaza's article.
translit_lang1_type translit_lang1_type1 to translit_lang1_type6	optional
translit_lang1_info translit_lang1_info1 to translit_lang1_info6	optional
translit_lang2	optional	Will place a second transliteration. See Dêlêg

Geographic information
These fields have dual automatic unit conversion meaning that if only metric values are entered, the imperial values will be automatically converted and vice versa. If an editor wishes to over-ride the automatic conversion, e.g. if the source gives both metric and imperial or if a range of values is needed, they should enter both values in their respective fields. All values must be entered in a raw format: no commas, spaces, or unit symbols. The template will format them automatically.
Parameter name	Usage	Description
Display settings
total_type	optional	Specifies what "total" area and population figure refer to, e.g. Greater London. This overrides other labels for total population/area. To make the total area and population display on the same line as the words "Area" and "Population", with no "Total" or similar label, set the value of this parameter to  .
unit_pref	optional	To change the unit order to imperial (metric), enter imperial. The default display style is metric (imperial). However, the template will swap the order automatically if the subdivision_name equals some variation of the US or the UK. For the Middle East, a unit preference of dunam can be entered (only affects total area).
Area
area_footnotes	optional	Reference(s) for area, placed within <ref> </ref> tags, possibly using the citing format at {{Cite web}}
dunam_link	optional	If dunams are used, the default is to link the word dunams in the total area section. This can be changed by setting dunam_link to another measure (e.g. dunam_link=water). Linking can also be turned off by setting the parameter to something else (e.g. dunam_link=none or dunam_link=off).
area_total_km2	optional	Total area in square kilometers—symbol: km2. Value must be entered in raw format, no commas or spaces. Auto-converted to display square miles if area_total_sq_mi is empty.

Supporting templates

The following is a list of sub-templates used by Infobox settlement. See the current list of all sub-templates for documentation, sandboxes, testcases, etc.

• {{Infobox settlement/areadisp}}
• {{Infobox settlement/densdisp}}
• {{Infobox settlement/lengthdisp}}
• {{Infobox settlement/link}}

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 <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|name= parameter.

TemplateData

This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Infobox settlement in articles based on its TemplateData.
