To use this template in an article, copy the template below, then paste the template into an article.
 +
 
 +
All parameters are optional. For some parameters, blank parameter values will be supplied via Wikidata, if data is available for that parameter. Those parameters are indicated below with the text "Fallback Wikidata item". Local values provided for parameters will always override available Wikidata parameter values. Parameters without either local or Wikidata values will not be displayed in the infobox.
 +
 
 +
A note on special handling of some parameters with respect to Wikidata:
 +
*If any location-related parameters are present in the article's infobox, no location-related information from Wikidata will be displayed.
 +
*If either {{para|owner}} or {{para|parent}} have a value in the article's infobox, neither of those parameter's Wikidata values will be displayed.
 +
 
 +
You must remove the hidden notes (both the <code><nowiki><!--</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>--></nowiki></code> characters) that surround certain entries in order for the data you enter to appear in the published article.

== Parameters ==

; name : The full, legal name of the company, correctly reproducing punctuation and abbreviations or lack thereof. The full legal name of the company may be different from the common name used for the article title.
 +
 
 +
; logo : The company's current, primary wordmark or logo. Use the logo of the entity that is the subject of the article; the logo used may be different from the logo used on consumer products, particularly if the article is about a parent company or holding company.
 +
:Fallback Wikidata item: {{Wikidata entity link|P154}}
 +
:For companies that use both a wordmark and a logo, upload a file that shows the two in combination if the combined form serves as the company's primary identity mark.
 +
:For a wordmark example, see [[Google]]; for a logo example, see [[Apple Inc.]]; for a combined logo and wordmark example see [[Altria]].
 +
:Upload a wordmark/logo graphic using the [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&uselang=en-nonfree-logo&wpUploadDescription={{logo%20fur%0A%3C!--%20REQUIRED%20--%3E%0A+|Article+++++++++++=+%0A+|Use+++++++++++++++=+Org%0A%3C!--%20HIGHLY%20RECOMMENDED%20--%3E%0A+|Source++++++++++++=+%0A%3C!--%20ADDITIONAL%20INFORMATION%20--%3E%0A+|Used%20for++++++++++=+%0A+|Owner+++++++++++++=+%0A+|Website+++++++++++=+%0A+|History+++++++++++=+%0A+|Commentary++++++++=+%0A%3C!--%20OVERRIDE%20FIELDS%20--%3E%0A+|Description+++++++=+%0A+|Portion+++++++++++=+%0A+|Low_resolution++++=+%0A+|Purpose+++++++++++=+%0A+|Replaceability++++=+%0A+|other_information+=+%0A}} organization logo upload form].
 +
:'''''Note: Uploading trademarked corporate logos by other means or uploading corporate logos to Wikimedia Commons is likely to result in deletion of the logo.'''''
 +
:Format: <code>logo.png</code>
 +
 
 +
; logo_size : Optional display width of the logo in pixels. If not specified, the size varies by [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering|user preferences]].

; trade_name : Trade name, doing business as, d/b/a or fictitious business name under which a company presents itself to the public. This parameter is used only when the company has a legally registered trade name that is different from the company's full, legal name.
 +
:Example:
 +
:: "Cellco Partnership" is the full, legal name of the company that trades as "[[Verizon Wireless]]". This template's name parameter would, therefore, be set as Cellco Partnership, while its trade_name parameter would be set as Verizon Wireless.
 +

 +
 
 +
; romanized_name : Native name in [[Latin script]]. Use ''only'' if the company is based in a non-English speaking country ''and'' it has no official rendering of its native name in Latin script. If such a rendering exists, assign it to native_name and omit this parameter.
 +
 
 +
; former_name : Former names, if a rebranding had occurred in the past.
 +
 
 +
; type : Type of ownership in the company (not their legal form of incorporation), wiki-linked where appropriate. To list percentages owned of a private company, use the ownership parameter.

 +
; area_served : ''(or areas_served)''&nbsp;&nbsp; Geographic area or areas in which the company does business. Use the largest appropriate geographic area or areas (e.g. if a company trades in nearly every province in Canada, use e.g. {{para|area_served|Most of Canada}} rather than listing every province).

If a founder is already listed in the <code>founder</code> parameter, do not list them again here as a founder; if the founder still holds an executive job with the company, you may, however, list them along with their job title (chairman, president, etc.).
 +
:Generally list prominent, current executives within the company holding key positions such as chairman, chief executive officer, president, VP of design, etc., but do not list roles below chief officer level if they are not [[WP:N|notable]]. Do include top executives even not individually notable, but do not wiki-link them.
 +
:Use popular names rather than formal names if the key figure has an existing Wikipedia article.
 +

 +
; production : The number of units produced in the most recent year and the year prior, stating the year in parentheses. Indicate what is being measured, such as vehicles, units or devices. You may include an indicator icon to indicate the change compared to the previous year; to avoid confusion, place the indicator before the number. Note that this is intended to depict the ''direction of change'' compared to the previous year, not the actual numerical change in value.
 +
:Example:
 +
:: {{Unbulleted list|<syntaxhighlight lang="moin" inline>{{Unbulleted list|class=nowrap|{{Increase}} 2,856 vehicles (2011)|2,177 vehicles (2010)}}</syntaxhighlight>}}

; parent : The name(s) of the current and former [[Parent company|parent companies]] and the time-span(s) in which they owned the subject. Do not add "independent" as the parent company to designate times without a parent company. Do not include any higher-level owners, like the parents' parent companies. If the company is not majority-owned by a single entity and as such does not have a clear parent company, use the owner field with the respective owners' percentages instead.
In the ''revenue'', ''operating_income'' and ''net_income'' fields, you may include an indicator icon to indicate the change compared to the previous fiscal year; to avoid confusion, place the indicator before the number. Please note that this is not intended to reflect the actual numerical change in value, only the direction of change compared to the previous year. If no citable information is available for previous fiscal year data, please do not use an icon.

=== Consistent notation ===
 +
There are different ways to record financial results that are in the millions or [[1,000,000,000|billions]] of dollars. Pick one and use it consistently in all parameters. If using billions, always wiki-link the first occurrence as <syntaxhighlight lang="moin" inline>[[1,000,000,000|billions]]</syntaxhighlight>, since [[Long-scale number|"billion" has more than one meaning]]. Use <code>&amp;nbsp;</code> to prevent wrapping between elements of the numbers, per [[MOS:NUM]].
 +
 
 +
Do not express results as a decimal such as <syntaxhighlight lang="html" style="overflow: hidden; background: unset;" inline>{{Increase}} US$.963&nbsp;billion (2010)</syntaxhighlight>. Instead choose a notation that will allow you to express all results for the period in whole numbers.
 +
 
 +
In this example, use <syntaxhighlight lang="html" style="overflow: hidden; background: unset;" inline>{{Increase}} US$963&nbsp;million (2010)</syntaxhighlight> or <syntaxhighlight lang="moin" inline>{{Increase}} US$963,000,000 (2010)</syntaxhighlight> and apply your choice to all the financial results consistently.

Template:Uses Wikidata

This template is used to create an infobox in an article about a company.

Usage

  1. redirect Template:Parameter names example

To use this template in an article, copy the template below, then paste the template into an article.

All parameters are optional. For some parameters, blank parameter values will be supplied via Wikidata, if data is available for that parameter. Those parameters are indicated below with the text "Fallback Wikidata item". Local values provided for parameters will always override available Wikidata parameter values. Parameters without either local or Wikidata values will not be displayed in the infobox.

A note on special handling of some parameters with respect to Wikidata:

  • If any location-related parameters are present in the article's infobox, no location-related information from Wikidata will be displayed.
  • If either |owner= or |parent= have a value in the article's infobox, neither of those parameter's Wikidata values will be displayed.

You must remove the hidden notes (both the <!-- and --> characters) that surround certain entries in order for the data you enter to appear in the published article.

Parameters

name 
The full, legal name of the company, correctly reproducing punctuation and abbreviations or lack thereof. The full legal name of the company may be different from the common name used for the article title.
logo 
The company's current, primary wordmark or logo. Use the logo of the entity that is the subject of the article; the logo used may be different from the logo used on consumer products, particularly if the article is about a parent company or holding company.
Fallback Wikidata item: Lua error in Module:Wd at line 196: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). (P154)
For companies that use both a wordmark and a logo, upload a file that shows the two in combination if the combined form serves as the company's primary identity mark.
For a wordmark example, see Google; for a logo example, see Apple Inc.; for a combined logo and wordmark example see Altria.
Upload a wordmark/logo graphic using the organization logo upload form.
Note: Uploading trademarked corporate logos by other means or uploading corporate logos to Wikimedia Commons is likely to result in deletion of the logo.
Format: logo.png

Financial results parameters

Financial indicators available:

| revenue = 
| revenue_year = <!-- Year of revenue data (if known) -->
| operating_income = 
| income_year = <!-- Year of operating_income data (if known) -->
| net_income = <!-- or: | profit = -->
| net_income_year = <!-- or: | profit_year = --><!-- Year of net_income/profit data (if known) -->
| aum = <!-- Only for financial-service companies -->
| assets = 
| assets_year = <!-- Year of assets data (if known) -->
| equity = 
| equity_year = <!-- Year of equity data (if known) -->

Wiki-link the first occurrence of the currency unit. This is usually in the |revenue= parameter.

Each parameter entry should include three elements: an indicator icon, the results of the most recent fiscal year and the results of the previous fiscal year.

Example
{{Unbulleted list|{{Increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}

Indicator icons

You may include an indicator icon to indicate the change compared to the previous fiscal year; to avoid confusion, place the indicator before the number. Note that this is intended to depict the direction of change compared to the previous year, not the actual numerical change in value.

Increase {{Increase}}, Template:Steady {{Steady}}, or Decrease {{Decrease}}
Examples
{{Unbulleted list|{{Increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}
{{Unbulleted list|{{Steady}} US$128,000,000 (2011)|US$128,000,000 (2010)}}
{{Unbulleted list|{{Decrease}} US$111,586,447 (2011)|US$128,064,032 (2010)}}
Which display as
  • Increase US$128,064,032 (2011)
  • US$111,586,447 (2010)
  • Decrease US$111,586,447 (2011)
  • US$128,064,032 (2010)

Consistent notation

There are different ways to record financial results that are in the millions or billions of dollars. Pick one and use it consistently in all parameters. If using billions, always wiki-link the first occurrence as [[1,000,000,000|billions]], since "billion" has more than one meaning. Use &nbsp; to prevent wrapping between elements of the numbers, per MOS:NUM.

Do not express results as a decimal such as {{Increase}} US$.963&nbsp;billion (2010). Instead choose a notation that will allow you to express all results for the period in whole numbers.

In this example, use {{Increase}} US$963&nbsp;million (2010) or {{Increase}} US$963,000,000 (2010) and apply your choice to all the financial results consistently.
