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 .
If it has a URL, use {{ URL }} .
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
Classes
hCard uses HTML classes including:
adr
