Template:Infobox military operation
| This template uses Lua: |
This infobox may be used to describe a particular planned or executed military operation or attack. For operations that resulted in combat, it can be used as an auxiliary template to the {{infobox military conflict}}, if necessary; for other types of operations, including those that were planned but never executed, it may be used alone. In the case of conflicts that consisted of multiple independent operations, multiple copies of the box may be used on a single article.

Pushpin map
Below are the parameters used by Module:Location map to produce the pushpin map in this Infobox. These parameters are available for editors to set in articles that use this infobox.
| Parameter | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
|pushpin_map= |
The map(s) to display. For example, specifying England will use the values for England in Module:Location map/data/England.Multiple maps can be shown by providing a list of map names separated by #. For multiple maps, the first is shown by default. A reader can select the others with radio buttons. |
N/A |
|pushpin_caption= |
The text of a caption to be displayed below the map. If not provided a default caption will be generated. Multiple captions can be shown when separated by ## (that's two). |
Location within MAPNAME |
|pushpin_relief= |
0/false/off will cause the template to display the map defined as image (generally not a relief map). 1/true/on will cause the template to display the map defined as image1 (generally a relief map). Any non-zero numeric value such as 2 or 3 will display image2 or image3, if those images are defined. Any other non-empty value will cause display of image1. See the example at Location map+/relief. |
0 |
|pushpin_label= |
The text of the label to display next to the identifying mark; a wikilink can be used. You can enclose the label inside of {{nowrap}} if you want to make sure that it stays on a single line. | N/A |
|pushpin_label_size= |
The font size to use for the label, given as a percentage of the normal font size (<100=smaller, >100=larger); the default size is 90. Do not include %. For example, use |pushpin_label_size=80, not |pushpin_label_size=80%. If set to 0, the label is only displayed when the user hovers over the mark. |
90 |
|pushpin_label_position= |
The position of the label relative to the identifying mark; valid values are left, right, top, bottom and none. This defaults to either left or right, depending on the coordinates of the marker and its position relative to the right border of the map image. When |pushpin_label_position=none, any defined label will not be displayed with the mark, but it will be used to create the default caption. |
N/A |
|pushpin_mark= |
The name of an image file to display as the identifying mark; the default is Red pog.svg |
Red pog.svg |
|pushpin_mark_size= |
The size of the identifying mark in pixels. Do not include px | 8 |
|pushpin_alt= |
Alt text for map; used by screen readers. See WP:ALT. | N/A |
|pushpin_background= |
The background color to use for the label; see Web colors. The default is no background color, which shows the map image behind the label. | N/A |
|pushpin_map_size= |
Determines the width of the map in pixels, overriding any default values; do not include px. | N/A |
