Purpose
This template provides a standardized infobox for the 88 IAU recognized constellations; the modern constellations used in modern day science.
Usage
{{Infobox constellation
| name = <!-- IAU constellation name -->
| abbreviation = <!-- IAU three letter abbreviation -->
| genitive = <!-- genitive form of the constellation,
as used in Bayer or Flamsteed designations -->
| pronounce = <!-- pronunciation -->
| symbolism = <!-- symbolic meaning of the constellation -->
| RA = {{RA}} – {{RA}} <!-- right ascension range -->
| dec = {{DEC}} – {{DEC}} <!-- declination range -->
| family = <!-- constellation family -->
| (deprecated) quadrant = <!-- galactic quadrant -->
| areatotal =
| arearank =
| numbermainstars = <!-- A count of the Bayer or Flamsteed designated stars that are
connected by line segments on the IAU's constellation map -->
| numberbfstars = <!-- The number of stars with Bayer or Flamsteed designations
in the constellation -->
| numberstarsplanets = X (Y with candidates)
<!-- X being the number of stars with confirmed planets,
Y being the number of stars with solid candidate planets
without confirmed planets -->
| numberbrightstars = <!-- Number of stars with an apparent magnitude less than ~=3
( apparent magnitude < 3 ) -->
| numbernearbystars = <!-- Number of stars that are closer than 10pc
( distance < 10 parsecs ) -->
| brighteststarname = <!-- the star with the brightest apparent magnitude
( usually this would be "α genitive" ) -->
| starmagnitude =
| neareststarname =
| stardistance =
| numbermessierobjects =
| meteorshowers =
| bordering =
| latmax =
| latmin =
| month =
| notes =
}}
Parameters
- name – (Mandatory) — The name of the constellation, as defined by the IAU
- abbreviation – (Mandatory) — The three letter IAU abbreviation for the constellation
- genitive – (Mandatory) — The genetive form of the constellation's name used in the construction of star names in Bayer designations and Flamsteed designations
- pronounce – (Optional) — The pronunciation of the constellation's name, and the genitive form. Please use IPA, SAMPA and re-spell
|pronounce= ;Name * IPA: IPA-code * SAMPA: SAMPA-code * Respell: respell ;Genitive * IPA: IPA-code * SAMPA: SAMPA-code * Respell: respell
- symbolism – (Optional) — the meaning of the constellation
- ie. Draco, is "the dragon", so fill in as the dragon
- RA and dec -- coordinates of the constellation
- RA – (Mandatory) — right ascension, use the {{RA}} template to fill in this parameter
- the right ascension of the lower and upper extremes of the constellation
- dec – (Mandatory) — declination, use the {{DEC}} template to fill in this parameter
- the declination of the lower and upper extremes of the constellation
- RA – (Mandatory) — right ascension, use the {{RA}} template to fill in this parameter
- liststyle – (Optional) — style for included lists; default is plain,
hlistfor horizontal andflatlistfor bulleted.
