Parameters

All fields are optional because they use ParserFunctions, which allow fields to be hidden if no value is set. The infobox is segmented into several basic parts, including the name of the site, an image, a map of the site's location, basic information about the site, and information pertaining to the registers on which the site is listed. Wikilinks and other formatting are acceptable in any of the Infobox fields except map/image and coordinate parameters.

Please spend some time at the Historic sites WikiProject and its talk page for standards on presenting names, designations, and other data.

Basic information

Basic information consists of information that can apply to any site, regardless of what it has been designated. This includes information like the site's location; when the site was built, formed, or founded; and information about who built it and how it was built. Basic information parameters are as follows:

name

Most recognizable name of the site. This may or may not be the official name given by any designation registers. See WP:TITLE for more information.

|name=Arles Obelisk

|native_name=Obélisque d'Arles

native_language

The language of the native name or its corresponding ISO 639-1, ISO 639-2 or ISO 639-3 language code. This uses the {{lang}} templates to display a link to the article about the language. If a language name (e.g. "French", "Russian", etc.) is specified, {{Lang2iso}} converts it into its ISO abbreviation.

|native_language = French

Mapframe parameters

• Basic {{Infobox mapframe}} parameters:
  • mapframe – Specify yes or no to show or hide the map, overriding the default. Default: no, but also modified by onByDefault
    • Internal onByDefault parameter: yes, unless any of these are set: |locmapin=, |image_map=, |embed=
  • mapframe-coordinates or mapframe-coord or coordinates or coord – Coordinates to use, instead of any on Wikidata. Use the {{Coord}} template, e.g. |coord={{Coord|12.34|N|56.78|E}}. Default: coordinates from Wikidata d:Property:P625
  • mapframe-caption – Caption for the map. Default: blank (or if |mapframe-geomask= is set, "Location in geomask's label")
  • mapframe-custom – Use a custom map instead of the automatic mapframe. Specify either a {{maplink}} template, or another template that generates a mapframe map, or an image name. If used, most mapframe parameters will be ignored. Default: not specified
  • mapframe-id or id or qid – Id (Q-number) of Wikidata item to use. Default: item for current page
  • mapframe-wikidata – Set to yes to show all shape/line features from OpenStreetMap. Default: not specified
• Customise which features are displayed:
  • mapframe-point – Turn off display of point feature by setting to none. Force point marker to be displayed by setting to on. Default: not specified
  • mapframe-shape – Turn off display of shape feature by setting to none. Force display of shape by setting to on. Use an inverse shape (geomask) instead of a regular shape by setting to inverse. Default: not specified
  • mapframe-line – Turn off display of line feature by setting to none. Force display of line by setting to on. Default: not specified
  • mapframe-geomask – Wikidata item to use as a geomask (everything outside the boundary is shaded darker). Can either be a specific Wikidata item (Q-number), or a property that specifies the item to use (e.g. P17 for (P17), P131 for (P131)). Default: not specified
  • mapframe-switcher – set to auto or geomasks or zooms to enable Template:Switcher-style switching between multiple mapframes. Default: not specified
    • auto – switch geomasks found in (P276) and (P131) statements on the page's Wikidata item, searching recursively. E.g. an item's city, that city's state, and that state's country.
    • geomasks – switch between the geomasks specified as a comma-separated list of Wikidata items (Q-numbers) in the mapframe-geomask parameter
    • zooms – switch between "zoomed in"/"zoomed midway"/"zoomed out", where "zoomed in" is the default zoom (with a minimum of 3), "zoomed out" is 1, and "zoomed midway" is the average
• Other optional parameters:
  • mapframe-frame-width or mapframe-width – Frame width. Default: 250
  • mapframe-frame-height or mapframe-height – Frame height. Default: 200
  • mapframe-shape-fill – Color used to fill shape features. Default: #606060

    • mapframe-shape-stroke-width – Width of outlines of shape features. Default: 2
    • mapframe-line-stroke-width – Width of line features. Default: 5
  • mapframe-marker – Marker symbol to use for coordinates; see mw:Help:Extension:Kartographer/Icons for options. Default: not specified (i.e. blank)
    • Can also be set to blank to override any default marker symbol
  • mapframe-marker-color or mapframe-marker-colour – Background color for the marker. Default: #5E74F3
  • mapframe-geomask-stroke-color or mapframe-geomask-stroke-colour – Color of outline of geomask shape. Default: #555555
  • mapframe-geomask-stroke-width – Width of outline of geomask shape. Default: 1
  • mapframe-geomask-fill – Color used to fill outside geomask features. Default: #606060

  • mapframe-population – Set the population, useful with type="city", for {{Infobox dim}}. Default: not specified

To display the site's location on the map, coordinates are needed. Use the {{Coord}} template. See the Coord template documentation for details on format, display, and other options.

Without coordinates, the map will not display even if a value is present in | locmapin =.

Grid references

For sites in Great Britain an Ordnance Survey grid reference may be given. Spaces are allowed - see details of format.

Designations

The main focus of this infobox is on the designations, which are displayed hereafter the basic information about the site; up to 5 are allowed. Normally designations are listed in decreasing scope (i.e. an international designation first, followed by a national one, etc.). Each designation is represented by a colored bar, controlled by the {{Designation}} template. Though the Designation template is used in the background here, it can be used as a stand-alone template to create tables, lists, and even other infoboxes. For more information see Template:Designation/doc.

To display a designation, there are several templates. While no parameters are necessary, it is recommended that at least the designation date and reference number (if applicable) are known before adding the designation. For each designation (1-5) the following parameters may be used:

designation1

Input the callname of the designation here. For a list of supported callnames, see Template:Designation/doc#Supported designations.

|designation1=World Heritage Site

designation1_offname

The official name of the historic site, as listed in the register. If the official name is the same as the common name at the top of the infobox, this field is not necessary. If more than one name is included on the register, include all of them.

|designation1_offname=Obélisque antique

designation1_type

Some registers have certain types of designations (i.e. "Natural" and "Cultural", "Grade I" and "Grade II", etc.). If the type is closely associated with the designation, input that type here.

|designation1_type=Cultural

designation1_criteria

Some registers require sites to meet specific criteria (normally one or more items in a list) for inclusion. If the criteria is known, input it here.

|designation1_criteria=ii, iv

designation1_date

Date when the site received this designation. Normally this parameter needs a reference (make sure it is properly formatted).

|designation1_date=March 4, 1972<ref>{{cite web|...}}</ref>

delisted1_date

If a site has been removed from a designation's list, this is the date of delisting. Setting a value to this parameter causes the designation's color bar to turn grey and adds the word "Former" to the beginning. This parameter also needs a reference.

|delisted1_date=March 5, 1972<ref>{{cite web|...}}</ref>

designation1_partof

Some designations are part of larger designations (i.e. an individually designated building inside a designated district or an individually designated district in a designated city). For example, Ellis Island is a part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument; both are listed as New York City Landmarks. If the larger designation is listed on the same register, include the name of the larger designation here. If a Wikipedia article exists about that designation, link to it.

|designation1_partof=[[Statue of Liberty National Monument]]

designation1_number

Most registers include unique reference numbers for each site so that they can be searched for more easily than by name (There may be two Jones Houses on the register, but they have unique reference numbers). Include this reference number here.

|designation1_number=70010045

For designations 2-5, these same parameters are used, only "designation1" in all the parameters is replaced by "designation2", "designation3", etc.

Custom parameters

Besides all of these hard-coded parameters there is also the possibility of adding up to 3 custom parameters for each designation. These can be used for information specific to that single register (such as "Region" for World Heritage Sites or "Multiple Property Submission" to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places). If there is anything extra needed to fully identify the designated site, include it here.

designation1_free1name

The name (bolded part) of the 1st custom parameter you would like to identify.

|designation1_free1name=Region

designation1_free1value

The value to which you want to set the custom parameter.

|designation1_free1value|[[World Heritage Sites in Europe|Europe and North America]]=

Up to three custom parameters can be named and defined for each parameter (| designation1_free2name =, | designation1_free2value =, etc.).

Use as a child template

The embed parameter is used when embedding this infobox into another (see the Template:Infobox documentation which explains embedding and subboxes).

{{Infobox ABC
| name        = 
| <!-- etc. -->
| embedded    = <!-- or module= -->
  {{Infobox historic site
  | embed = yes
  | <!-- etc. -->
  }}
}}

Embedding other templates

The embedded parameter is used for embedding other templates into this infobox (see Wikipedia:Infobox modules).

{{Infobox historic site
| name =
| <!-- etc. -->
| embedded = 
  {{Infobox ABC
  | embed = yes <!-- or child=yes or subbox=yes-->
  | <!-- etc. -->
  }}
}}

Examples

The two infoboxes shown above are two great examples of this infobox in action. The Arles Obelisk infobox shows a site which makes use of a native name, and the Statue of Liberty infobox shows four separate designations. The infoboxes are repeated here, along with more examples, showing the code behind them:

This is an example of a standard infobox with two designations. Notice in the World Heritage Site designation, an external link to a page describing the site is provided in the reference number section. Also, in the date section, a small link (such as those seen in {{Infobox World Heritage Site}}) is provided detailing the World Heritage Committee session in which the obelisk was designated. The location parameter includes a line break (<br /> or {{br}}); this is perfectly acceptable in all infobox fields except map/image and coordinate fields.

The Choco Culture National Historical Park has also been designated four different things, but one is no longer active. The park used to be a U.S. National Monument but was delisted in 1980 and converted into a National Historical Park. To show the former designation, notice that the infobox greys out the National Monument bar and adds the word "Former" to the beginning of the designation. Notice also that the locator map is not displayed since the locmapin parameter is left blank.
