{{Infobox Australian place/pagelinks}}

== Purpose ==
{{tl|Infobox Australian place}} is used to add infoboxes to articles on places in Australian states and territories. It is not limited to populated places such as cities, towns and suburbs, but may be used on any place including regions, [[Local government in Australia|local government areas]], [[Lands administrative divisions of Australia|cadastral units]], [[protected area]]s and even some areas that do not fall into any of the preceding descriptions and for which no other infobox is appropriate. It is the standard infobox used in Australian articles. Australian articles using {{tl|Infobox settlement}} should be converted to use this infobox.

The infobox has been extensively customised for Australia and includes automation that results in some parameters being redundant to other parameters. For example, if population density (in the {{para|density}} parameter) is not specified, this will be automatically generated based on the {{para|pop}} and {{para|area}} parameters. It is therefore important to read parameter descriptions thoroughly, to avoid unnecessarily providing redundant or incorrect information.

For infoboxes that require reformatting, general cleanup or addition of missing parameters, [[Template:Infobox Australian place/cleanup]] can be [[Help:Substitution|substituted]]. This will reformat the infobox and remove invalid parameters.

== Usage ==

=== To use this template === 
#Copy the relevant blank template from the <u>'''[[Template:Infobox Australian place/Blank|Blank infobox page]]'''</u> into the beginning of your document, remembering to put the code on the line directly before the start of the article's lead.
#Enter values for the parameters as outlined under {{slink||Parameters}}, particularly {{para|type}} and {{para|state}}. Parameters left blank will automatically be hidden.
#Preview the page with your edits.
#Save the page with an appropriate edit summary (e.g., "<nowiki>Added {{[[Template:Infobox Australian place|Infobox Australian place]]}}</nowiki>", which will display as, "Added {{tl|Infobox Australian place}}" ).

=== Examples ===
* Examples of this template can be found on the [[Template:Infobox Australian place/Examples|examples page]].

== Parameters ==
Both <code>type</code> and <code>state</code> are required parameters. All other parameters used by this template are optional.

=== Required ===
These parameters must be set for every infobox as they affect the behaviour of many other parameters.

The {{para|type}} parameter sets up the template for a specific type of location. It regulates which parameters can be used and sets the colour of the top bar of the infobox. The entered values for this parameter should be plain, unlinked text.

{{reflist|group=lower-alpha}}

The {{para|state}} parameter defines the state or territory of the infobox's location. It sets up the template to refer to and link to the correct state or territory throughout. The entered values for this parameter should be plain, unlinked text; for consistency, lower case is preferred. If the parameter is left blank, the infobox will default to <code>au</code> (i.e., Australia).

<section begin=image_upright />

=== Calculating "image_upright" ===
The <code>image_upright</code> parameter, and <code>image2_upright</code> and <code>logo_upright</code> where applicable, is/are provided so as to facilitate the use of scalable images in this infobox, in accordance with the instructions at [[WP:IMAGESIZE]], which advises against the use of "px" (for example: <code>thumb|300px</code>), as this forces a fixed image width.

Scalable images respect the user's base preference, which may have been selected for that user's particular devices. [[Module:InfoboxImage]], which is used in this infobox, accommodates the use of scaling. However, setting the appropriate scale is slightly more complex than setting a raw "px" value. This guide provides a quick conversion table to make the process of setting a scale easier. It is based on a default thumbnail setting of 220px. <!-- This is not a real sentence in any way: (size is default multiplied by upright value then rounded to nearest 10) -->

{{div col|colwidth=20em}}
{{startplainlist}}
* <code><nowiki>170px</nowiki></code> &rarr; <code><nowiki>upright=0.75</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>180px</nowiki></code> &rarr; <code><nowiki>upright=0.8</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>190px</nowiki></code> &rarr; <code><nowiki>upright=0.85</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>200px</nowiki></code> &rarr; <code><nowiki>upright=0.9</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>210px</nowiki></code> &rarr; <code><nowiki>upright=0.95</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>220px</nowiki></code> &rarr; <code><nowiki>upright=1</nowiki></code>

{{endplainlist}}
{{div col end}}<section end=image_upright />

=== Footnote and reference parameters ===
Any references to support a parameter reserved solely for a numeric value should be placed within the respective {{para|..._footnotes}} or {{para|..._ref}} parameters. For example, place the reference used for the area of City X in the {{para|area_footnotes}} parameters and not in the {{para|area}} parameter. Otherwise, an error may result.

=== Unformatted numbers and expression errors ===
Certain parameters require numeric values to be entered in an unformatted/raw fashion—i.e. 1000.0 ''not'' 1,000.0.  If an expression error is present, simply remove any commas or spaces from the number.
<!-- === Maps ===
For some locations this infobox supports the display of links to the popular web mapping services Google and Bing. However, in order for this to function a valid map page containing a [[Keyhole Markup Language|KML]] format map must exist. As KML files cannot currently be uploaded, the text of those files must be copied into a Wikipedia page. By default, the infobox uses a file name with the same title as the article at the location <code>Template:Infobox Australian place/mapdata/<place name></code> e.g. [[Raymond Terrace, New South Wales]] uses [[Template:Infobox Australian place/mapdata/Raymond Terrace, New South Wales]]. A list of currently available maps may be found [[Template:Infobox Australian place/mapdata|here]]. -->

=== Dist#, Dir# and Location# ===
This is the distance and approximate direction to another location. The '#' is replaced with a number between 1 and 5. Therefore, five locations can be listed, using {{para|location1}} through {{para|location5}}. The distances can be listed using {{para|dist1}} through {{para|dist5}}. Direction from the locations is optional, and can be specified using {{para|dir1}} through {{para|dir5}}.

=== Population from Wikidata {{anchor|PopulationFromWikidata}} ===
If the {{para|pop}} parameter is left empty or not supplied, the template will attempt to retrieve population data from Wikidata. For more information, see the documentation of [[Module:PopulationFromWikidata]]. This is a new feature as of June 2022 (to coincide with the release of the 2021 Australian Census data). Please report any feedback to [[Template talk:Infobox Australian place]].

== Where to find information ==
* [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Australian places#Useful Resources]]
* [http://www.abs.gov.au/ Australian Bureau of Statistics]
* [http://alga.asn.au/?ID=7030&Menu=56,199,415 LGA links for each state]
* [http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/data/ Climate Data Online at the Bureau of Meteorology]

== Tracking categories ==

* {{Category link with count|Australian place articles using Wikidata population values}} – articles that display population values from Wikidata, rather than directly via the {{para|pop}} parameter.

=== Deprecated parameters ===
* {{Category link with count|Australian place articles using missing parameters}} – articles that include deprecated parameters are automatically added. As of 5 April 2016, the tracked parameters are {{para|imagesize}}, {{para|image2size}}, {{para|imagesize2}}, {{para|image_alt2}}, {{para|logosize}} and {{para|official_site}}.

=== Errors ===
* {{Category link with count|Australian place articles using missing parameters}} – articles that contain general errors are automatically added.
* {{Category link with count|Australian place articles with no population year}} – articles missing {{para|pop_year}} or {{para|pop2_year}} parameters are automatically added.
* {{Category link with count|Australian place articles with no population footnotes}} – articles missing {{para|pop_footnotes}} or {{para|pop2_footnotes}} parameters are automatically added.
* {{Category link with count|Australian place articles with density errors}}
* {{Category link with count|Pages using infobox Australian place with unknown parameters}} – articles using parameters that are not included in the infobox. This category may include articles with incorrectly spelled parameters.

=== Temporary ===
* {{Category link with count|Pages using infobox Australian place with non-lga type and suppressed location map}}
* {{Category link with count|Pages using infobox Australian place with lga type and location map}}
* {{Category link with count|Pages using infobox Australian place with an implicitly-suppressed location map}}
