This module displays values for the map data modules such as Module:Location map/data/Belgium. These templates are used by Module:Location map to obtain values such as the file name and the border coordinates of each location map.

Usage

This module is automatically used as documentation for map data modules and should not normally be called manually.

The name parameter

The {{Location map}} family of templates uses the value assigned to name to generate alt text. It is used to construct the sentence "label is located in name". Assign a value to <name> that fits in the sentence. For example:

Chicago is located in the United States. So |name=the United states.
Santo Domingo is located in the Dominican Republic. So |name=the Dominican Republic.
