قالب:Infobox UK place

This template contains one or more optional parameters: see the talk page for details. This template employs some extremely complicated and esoteric features of template syntax. Please do not attempt to alter it unless you are certain that you understand the setup and are prepared to repair any consequent collateral damage if the results are unexpected. Any experiments should be conducted in the template sandbox or your user space.

Template documentation[قالب:Infobox UK place/doc] [edit] [history] [purge]

{{Infobox UK place}} is intended for use with articles about places i.e. human settlements in the United Kingdom. It has provision for a location map, images, captions, and detailed information about the place e.g. population, governance, and public services. There is an associated Template:Infobox UK feature which operates in a similar manner and is intended for features such as bridges, castles, and hills which do not require the options about governance etc.

Basic syntax

Examples are available showing typical infoboxes together with the code for those examples. This code can be cut and pasted into new articles. The samples provided are:

Isle of Man

Northern Ireland

Scotland

Wales

England – these can have differing structures:

Greater London

City of London

Metropolitan county (Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Tyne and Wear, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, West Midlands)

Shire district in a shire county

...within a parish of the same name

Unitary district within a shire

Standalone unitary (Herefordshire, Rutland, Bristol, Isle of Wight)

Footer lists	country london_borough OR shire_county OR metropolitan_county OR lieutenancy_england OR unitary_scotland OR unitary_wales OR lieutenancy_northern_ireland

Normally used features

Although not required for any of the automation, the following fields should normally be filled in
constituency_westminster map_alt os_grid_reference OR irish_grid_reference dial_code (this may be of help finding the dialling code) Northern Ireland only: lieutenancy_northern_ireland (?) Wales only: lieutenancy_wales (?) Scotland only: lieutenancy_scotland (?)

Optional features

Optional feature	Required fields
Other language names	gaelic_name OR scots_name OR welsh_name OR irish_name OR cornish_name OR manx_name
Any other language name	other_language AND other_language_name local_name
Languages spoken	language
Static image(s)	static_image (deprecated) static_image_name static_image_width - defaults to 240px wide to match the maps. static_image_caption static_image_alt (see WP:ALT) static_image_2 (deprecated) static_image_2_name static_image_2_width - defaults to 240px wide to match the maps. static_image_2_caption static_image_2_alt
Map label position	label_position Used to adjust position of label by dot on map– options are top, bottom, left, right, or none – defaults to right
Area	area_total_sq_mi area_total_km2 area_footnotes Only one value needs to be entered as a number and it will be automatically formatted and converted to opposite system
Population figures	population – must be a number population_density – will be calculated automatically if area and population are present population_ref (A good place to find the population figures is at neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk) For Census 2001 use | population_ref = <ref>[[United Kingdom Census 2001|Census 2001]]</ref>
Distance from capitals	Replace <capital> with belfast, cardiff, douglas, dublin, edinburgh, or london <capital>_distance_mi <capital>_distance_km Only one value needs to be entered as a number and it will be automatically formatted and converted to opposite system <capital>_distance Used for footnotes or direction – see Boxing the compass <capital_direction> Enter direction to capital e.g. W, E, NE, SW – it will be linked to Boxing the compass (Distances "as the crow flies" can be found from Genuki, or postcode.org.uk)
Distance within London	Same as Distance from capitals above – replace <capital> with charingX
Civil parish or Community	civil_parish OR community_wales (?)
Website link	website WARNING: overlong urls may result in the sides of the infobox being pushed sideways. If so, use a short link to the url e.g. [longurl.co.uk/home.html Short name]

Places split by boundaries

Places split by boundaries

Many locations straddle the boundaries of post towns, constituencies, districts or regions. Where a place straddles these, they can be accommodated with its own field: post_town AND post_town1 AND post_town2 civil_parish AND civil_parish1 shire_district AND shire_district1 AND shire_district2 region AND region1 westminster_constituency AND westminster_constituency1 AND westminster_constituency2 There are slightly more "esoteric" extras to handle some tricky situations of division splits, which, if needed, can be explained by contacting one of the users involved in this template's construction.
