Pre-loading Wikidata values

The listing below proposes to import Wikidata values (called "claims" at Wikidata) and convert them to static local data, with the subst: technique.

Pre-loading Wikidata values in this fashion would often be unsuccessful due to failing Wikidata claims for the item: it is up to the editor importing the claims to check whether the claim is correct and appropriate for the infobox.

several values need to be reformatted after loading with this method, see comments starting with three !!! in the list below

The preload-list can be used for a first implementation of this template in an article. Separate parameter substitutions can be used to complement incomplete parameter sets in a previously implemented infobox.

This list is incomplete; you can help by adding missing items.

| child         =

))

Notes

If the Heritage Site has multiple locations across a country or continent, use the embedded template ((Location map many)) as in example 4.
If the template is not used as an embedded template, always use the "WHS" parameter. If the template is embedded, and the official name at the Unesco site doesn't match the name of the template it is used in, use "Official_name". See Giza pyramid complex for an example of the second use.
"Type" is kept as a parameter for backwards compatibility only, and should preferably not be used.

Coordinates

For coordinates, use ((coord)) with display=inline,title. Please do not be overly precise.

Examples

Example 1

Kathmandu Valley
UNESCO World Heritage Site
Location	Nepal
Criteria	Cultural: iii, iv, vi
Reference	121
Inscription	1979 (3rd Session)
Extensions	2006
Endangered	2003-2007

This example has no image:

((Infobox UNESCO World Heritage Site
| WHS         = Kathmandu Valley
| Location    = [[Nepal]]
| Criteria    = Cultural: iii, iv, vi
| ID          = 121
| Year        = 1979
| Danger      = 2003-2007
| Extension   = 2006
))

Example 2

Kathmandu Valley
UNESCO World Heritage Site
The Kathmandu Darbar Square
Location	Nepal
Criteria	Cultural: iii, iv, vi
Reference	121
Inscription	1979 (3rd Session)
Extensions	2006
Endangered	2003-2007

This example uses an image of width 270px, and the alt and caption parameters:

((Infobox UNESCO World Heritage Site
| WHS         = Kathmandu Valley
| image       = Basantapurpalace.JPG
| image_size  = 270px
| alt         = The Kathmandu Darbar Square
| caption     = The Kathmandu Darbar Square
| Location    = [[Nepal]]
| Criteria    = Cultural: iii, iv, vi
| ID          = 121
| Year        = 1979
| Danger      = 2003-2007
| Extension   = 2006
))

Example 3

Kathmandu Valley
UNESCO World Heritage Site
The Kathmandu Darbar Square
Location	Nepal
Criteria	Cultural: iii, iv, vi
Reference	121
Inscription	1979 (3rd Session)
Extensions	2006
Endangered	2003-2007
Area	167.37 ha
Buffer zone	70.29 ha
Coordinates	27°42′14″N 85°18′32″E / 27.704°N 85.309°E / 27.704; 85.309
Location in Nepal

This example uses the default image width, and a location map:

((Infobox UNESCO World Heritage Site
| WHS         = Kathmandu Valley
| image       = Basantapurpalace.JPG
| alt         = The Kathmandu Darbar Square
| caption     = The Kathmandu Darbar Square
| Location    = [[Nepal]]
| Criteria    = Cultural: iii, iv, vi
| ID          = 121
| Year        = 1979
| Danger      = 2003-2007
| Extension   = 2006
| Area        = 167.37 ha
| Buffer_zone = 70.29 ha 
| locmapin    = Nepal
| coordinates = ((coord|27.704|85.309))
| map_caption = Location in Nepal
))

Example 4

Bauhaus and its Sites in Weimar, Dessau and Bernau
UNESCO World Heritage Site
Bauhaus building in Dessau
Location	Germany
Criteria	Cultural: ii, iv, vi
Reference	729
Inscription	1996 (20th Session)
Extensions	2017
Area	8.1614 ha
Buffer zone	59.26 ha
1 2 3 Bauhaus sites: 1 = Weimar, 2 = Dessau, 3 = Bernau

This example uses an embedded template for the location map, allowing an unlimited number of clickable locations:

((Infobox UNESCO World Heritage Site
|WHS          = Bauhaus and its Sites in Weimar, Dessau and Bernau
|Image        = [[File:Bundesarchiv Bild 183-1987-0204-305, Dessau, Bauhaus.jpg|250px|Bauhaus Dessau Workshop]]
|imagecaption = Bauhaus building in Dessau
|Location     = Germany
|Criteria     = Cultural: ii, iv, vi
|ID           = 729
|Year         = 1996
|Extension    = 2017
|Area         =  8.1614 ha
|Buffer_zone  =  59.26 ha 
|embedded     =
((Location map many|border=infobox
| Germany
| caption     = Bauhaus sites: 1 = Weimar, 2 = Dessau, 3 = Bernau
| label1      = 1
| link1       = Weimar
| coordinates1=  ((coord|50|58|29|N|11|19|46|E))
| label2      = 2
| link2       = Dessau
| coordinates2= ((coord|51|50|18|N|12|13|38|E))
| label3      = 3
| link3       = Bernau bei Berlin
| coordinates3= ((coord|52|42|24|N|13|32|39|E))
))
))

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.

Sub-templates

If the place or venue has "established", "founded", "opened" or similar dates, use ((start date)) for the earliest of those dates unless the date is before 1583 CE.

If it has a URL, use ((URL)).

Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.

Classes

hCard uses HTML classes including:

adr
agent
category
county-name
extended-address
fn
label
locality
nickname
note
org
region
street-address
uid
url
vcard

Geo is produced by calling ((coord)), and uses HTML classes:

geo
latitude
longitude

Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.

Precision

When giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use ((coord))'s |name= parameter.
