This template, [[Template:Infobox See]], is designed to support articles on German, Austrian and Swiss lakes (or ''Seen'') that have been translated from German Wikipedia ([[:de:Vorlage:Infobox See]]). It works by shimming the German parameters into those used by [[Template:Infobox body of water]], such that all parameters are automatically translated, along with many of the standard data entries. This massively reduces the workload for translators and facilitates the rapid transfer of tabular information from German Wikipedia.

This template, {{Infobox body of water/See}}, is designed to support articles on German, Austrian and Swiss lakes (or Seen) that have been translated from German Wikipedia (de:Vorlage:Infobox See). It works by shimming the German parameters into those used by {{Infobox body of water}}, such that all parameters are automatically translated, along with many of the standard data entries. This massively reduces the workload for translators and facilitates the rapid transfer of tabular information from German Wikipedia.

It should always be subst:ituted.

To display the infobox in articles, just copy the original infobox from German Wikipedia. All usable parameters will be automatically translated. Some standard data entries will also be translated; the remainder need to be translated manually. Empty parameters will not be displayed. (Name = has the same effect as a missing parameter Name).

This infobox should be used only for lakes that are in the northern and eastern hemispheres (i.e. latitude = north and longitude = east).
