This template is a customized wrapper for ((Infobox settlement)) and as such included in Category:Templates calling Infobox settlement. Any field from ((Infobox settlement)) can work so long as it is added to this template first. It will also emit the same hCard and Geo microformats as ((Infobox settlement)). Questions? Just ask here or over at Template talk:Infobox settlement.

Microformat

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
