This is the template sandbox page for Template:Coord missing (diff). |
This template is used to mark articles without geolocation data (coordinates) and is easily converted, by adding them, into {{coord}}.
Usage
{{Coord missing|region name}}
Parameters
- region name
Either one of the country names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by country, or a smaller area, such as a state or province, where that sub-subcategory exists or is warranted. Where a particular country cannot be identified, one of the continent names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by continent should be used instead.
- The categories are hidden categories. To view hidden categories, one needs to activate them in Special:Preferences. Under "Appearance", there is "Show hidden categories".
Removal of template
The template should be removed when coordinates are added to the article.
A bot occasionally removes it from all articles that already use {{coor URL}}.
