Template:Infobox mountain/doc

Usage
The following parameters can be used to create an infobox for a mountain, hill, massif, or a mountain or hill range. Please remove any parameters that are not likely to be useful.



Parameters
Only the name and elevation fields are required. All other fields are optional and will not display if not present in the template or do not have any value.

Coordinate parameters
There are three ways to enter the location of a mountain range, which controls the content of two different optional fields: References (or other notes) for the coordinates can be added via notes parameters:
