Usage

Parameters

countryname:

should be one of the country names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by country. 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.

Adding coordinates

Quick "how to"
To add the coordinates 57°18′22"N 4°27′32"W to the top of an article, use {{coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|display=title}}
For decimal coordinates, such as 44.112°N 86.913°W, use one of {{coord|44.112|N|87.913|W|display=title}} {{coord|44.112|-87.913|display=title}}
Values (including degrees, minutes and seconds) are separated by a pipe ("|"). Latitude (N/S) before longitude (E/W). Map datum is WGS84. Please don't be overly precise (0.0001° is <11 m, 1′′ is <31 m).
Optional parameters: region: region:XX_ (uses ISO 3166-2 code) type: type:XXX display: |display=inline,title or variant Full example: {{coord|44.112|-87.913|region:US-WI_type:landmark|display=inline,title}}
