Template:Infobox mill building

File:Test Template Info-Icon - Version (2).svg Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

{{Infobox mill building}} may be used to summarize information about a building. It can be used in two ways with named parameters or with ten unnamed parameters.

Usage

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="overflow:auto;">

Renovated	1:<! or re-equipment_date_1 -->

</syntaxhighlight>

Parameters

Unnamed parameters

1. Mill name
2. Location
3. Coordinate
4. Reference
5. Notes- Description (not yet displayed)
6. Image
7. Architect/Owner (some lists use different info (not yet displayed)
8. Built
9. Decommissioned
10. Demolished

The purpose of this is to allow lists of mills to be constructed using the {{TMbegin}}, {{TMtr}}, {{TMend}} sequence. The {{TMtr}} can be copied directly across into a new article and renamed {{Infobox mill building}} as the unnamed parameters transfer directly across. The new Infobox can then be edited, and as new data is input it will over-ride potentially conflicting parameters. Similarly, any {{Infobox mill building}} named-parameters can safely be added to a {{TMtr}} call, as they will be safely ignored while on the list page- but will then be valid here if a copy is made.

The named parameters are seen in the section below.

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
• agent
• category
• county-name
• extended-address
• fn
• label
• locality
• nickname
• note
• org
• region
• street-address
• uid
• url
• vcard

Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:

• geo
• latitude
• longitude

Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.

Precision

When giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name= parameter.
