note that it is supposed to be cut off at the bottom
Template intended to simplify adding a standardized and formatted caption below a map indicating the location of something (e.g. a country), possibly referring to the map's main region and optionally also to a shown subregion. Original use within infoboxes (e.g. see articles on European countries). For a complete set of elements of reasonable length, a width of (minimally) 250px (without extra padding or margins) should be available.
Parameters
Required parameters shown in bold italics Script error: No such module "aligned table".
- Note
- If country, region or subregion is exactly the name of a page in article space, the template automatically creates a link to it. You can still put a link here manually, using the usual syntax.
Examples
| Code | Raw result (in unformatted box, compare to handling in Infobox) | |
{{map caption}}
| ||
| ||
{{map caption |region=Europe |legend=European location legend en.png}}
| ||
| ||
{{map caption |countryprefix=the |region=Europe |subregion=the [[European Union]] |legend=European location legend en.png}}
| ||
| ||
Typical sample for an article on a European Union member that needs no "the" before its name, for otherwise identical output:{{map caption |region=Europe |subregion=EU |legend=European location legend en.png}}
| ||
| ||
| Infobox usage of code (as intended) — in which the alignment, the padding/margins, and font are rendered differently (this template adjusts for that infobox): | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Sample for article named 'Armenia', about a non-European country
