Parameters[edit source]

Field Name Required Description Values
name yes Name of building wikitext

native_name_lang no ISO 639-2 code use ISO 639-2 code, e.g. "fr" for French. If there is more than one native name, in different languages, enter those names using {{lang}}, instead.
status no useful to show the construction status of new buildings. The keywords to the right can be used to produce the appropriate colored status:
  • "built", "completed", "finished" or "complete" = Complete;
  • "destroyed" = Destroyed;
  • "demolished" = Demolished;
  • "on hold" = On hold;
  • "incomplete", "unfinished" or "under construction" = Under construction;
  • "cancelled", "canceled", or "never built" = Never built;
  • "topped out" or "topped-out" = Topped-out;
  • "planned" or "proposed" = Proposed.
  • "approved" = Approved.
  • Note, if anything else is included in this field, like reference tags, the color coded status will not be displayed.

caption no Caption for image wikitext (can contain links)
location no Location of the building wikitext (can contain links) E.g.;[[Joondalup, Western Australia]], [[Australia]], [[Las Vegas Strip]]
address no Address of the building The address can be different then the location, especially when it is only a mailing address and does not represent the actual physical location. Generally address should be used except when the location and address are different.
location_town no Settlement where the building is located wikitext (can contain links)
location_country no Country where the building is located wikitext (can contain links)
iso_region no ISO region code where the building is located wikitext (can contain links)
latd, latm, lats, latNS
longd, longm, longEW
no Geographic coordinates of location See map and coordinates for details
coordinates_display no Option for {{coord}} Use any nonblank value to display in title
groundbreaking_date no Date of the formal ground breaking, if any E.g.; 25 January 2007
start_date no Date building construction started E.g.; 25 January 2007
completion_date no Completion date of construction if know E.g.; 25 January 2007

awards no listed awards should meet the notability criteria for its own non-redirect article in the English Wikipedia. Red-linked entries are acceptable if the award's notability is verifiable, and it is reasonable to expect an article could be forthcoming in the future. This standard prevents the infobox award section from becoming an indiscriminate list.
ren_awards no listed awards should meet the notability criteria for its own non-redirect article in the English Wikipedia. Red-linked entries are acceptable if the award's notability is verifiable, and it is reasonable to expect an article could be forthcoming in the future. This standard prevents the infobox award section from becoming an indiscriminate list.
parking no parking
url no URL {{URL|url.com.au}}
embedded no Embed another infobox with such capability like {{designation list}} and {{infobox NRHP}} the code of the embedded template
references no Footnotes and citations for information within infobox wikitext (can contain links)

Notes: Do not link to an article more than once in the infobox.

highest_region no
highest_reflabel no Override the default reference label 'talleststatus', pointing to the reference marked with {{note label|thatlabel}}.
highest_prev no
highest_start no
highest_end no
highest_next no

Map and coordinates[edit source]

It's usually not necessary to use the coordinates= parameter.

  • The latitude and longitude of the building may be specified:
    • in decimal degrees, using latitude= and longitude= OR
    • in degrees/minutes/seconds, using latd=, latm=, lats=, latNS=, longd=, longm=, longs=, and longEW=.
  • To display coordinates at the top of the page, set coordinates_display= to any non-blank value. Otherwise coordinates will appear in the infobox only.
  • The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 region code can often be determined automatically, based on the location_country= parameter.
    • To override the automatic value, use the iso_region= parameter.

One advantage of omitting the coordinates= parameter is that you can display a {{Location map}} without duplicating coordinates.

{{Infobox building
...
| coordinates         = <!-- Template {{Coord}} if map is not used; empty if map is displayed. -->
| coordinates_display = <!-- non-blank to display coordinates at the top of the page. -->
| iso_region          = <!-- To override any automatically determined region code. -->
| map_type            = <!-- Location name used for Template:Location map -->
| map_alt             = <!-- Alternative text for map image, see WP:ALT for details -->
| map_caption         = <!-- Text to be displayed below map; for no caption enter "map_caption="; if the parameter is omitted then the caption will be "Marker text (location map name)" -->
| relief              = <!-- Any non-blank value (yes, 1, etc.) will cause the template to display a relief map image, where available. -->
...
}}
Parameters to specify coordinates in degrees, minutes, and seconds of arc:
{{Infobox building
...
| latd   = <!-- ''latitude'' degrees -->
| latm   = <!-- ''latitude'' minutes -->
| lats   = <!-- ''latitude'' seconds -->
| latNS  = <!-- latitude: S=south, N=north (default) -->
| longd  = <!-- ''longitude'' degrees -->
| longm  = <!-- ''longitude'' minutes -->
| longs  = <!-- ''longitude'' seconds -->
| longEW = <!-- longitude: W=west, E=east (default) -->
...
}}
Parameters to specify coordinates in decimal degrees:
{{Infobox building
...
| latitude  = <!-- ''latitude'' (decimal format; enter negative numbers for southern latitude) -->
| longitude = <!-- ''longitude'' (decimal format; enter negative numbers for western longitude) --> 
...
}}

Note: coordinates in decimal degrees are sensitive to extra whitespace in the parameters:

  • Incorrect: | longitude = - 123.45
  • Correct: | longitude = -123.45
