Usage
[edit]This module is automatically used as documentation for map data modules and should not normally be called manually.
The name parameter
[edit]The {{Location map}} family of templates uses the value assigned to name to generate alt text. It is used to construct the sentence "label is located in name". Assign a value to <name> that fits in the sentence. For example:
- Chicago is located in the United States. So
|name=the United States. - Santo Domingo is located in the Dominican Republic. So
|name=the Dominican Republic.
