Template:Location map/Info/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Location map/Info (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template displays values for the map templates such as {{Location map Spain}}. These templates are used by {{Location map}} to obtain values such as the file name and the border coordinates of each location map.

Usage

On a template page

<noinclude>{{Location map/Info}}</noinclude>

On a documentation sup-page

{{Location map/Info}}

The name parameter

The {{Location map}} family of templates uses the value assigned to name to generate alt text. It is used to construct the sentence "label is located in name". Assign a value to <name> that fits in the sentence. For example:

Chicago is located in the United States. So |name=the United states.

Santo Domingo is located in the Dominican Republic. So |name=the Dominican Republic.
