mapframe – Specify yes or no to show or hide the map, overriding the default. Default:no if a pushpin map or map image is specified, yes otherwise
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, the subsequent 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-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
mapframe-wikidata – Set to yes to show shape/line features from the wikidata item, if any, when |coord= is set. Default:not specified
Customise which features are displayed:
mapframe-shape – Turn off display of shape feature by setting to none. Use an inverse shape (geomask) instead of a regular shape by setting to inverse. Default:not specified
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-line – Turn off display of line feature by setting to none. 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 රට (P17), P131 for එය පිහිටා ඇති පරිපාලන ඒකකය (P131)). Default:museum
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 පිහිටීම (P276) and එය පිහිටා ඇති පරිපාලන ඒකකය (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: 270
mapframe-frame-height or mapframe-height – Frame height. Default: 200
mapframe-shape-fill – Color used to fill shape features. Default: #606060
mapframe-shape-fill-opacity – Opacity level of shape fill, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
mapframe-stroke-color or mapframe-stroke-colour – Color of line features, and outlines of shape features. Default: #ff0000
mapframe-stroke-width – Width of line features, and outlines of shape features; default is "5". Default: 5
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: 2
mapframe-geomask-fill – Color used to fill outside geomask features. Default: #606060
mapframe-geomask-fill-opacity – Opacity level of fill outside geomask features, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
mapframe-zoom – Set the zoom level, from "1" to "18", to used if the zoom level cannot be determined automatically from object length or area. Default: 10
mapframe-length_km or mapframe-length_mi or mapframe-area_km2 or mapframe-area_mi2 – Determine zoom level by passing in object's length (in kilometres or miles) or area (in square kilometres or square miles). Default:not specified
mapframe-frame-coordinates or mapframe-frame-coord – Alternate latitude and longitude coordinates for initial placement of map, using {{coord}}. Default:derived from item coordinates
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.
