Coordinates: Coordinates: Unable to parse latitude as a number:{{{1}}}
Invalid arguments have been passed to the {{#coordinates:}} function
This template places the coordinates in the upper-right of the article, just below the horizontal rule running under the article's title.
Note that this template is broken when viewed in any skin other than Monobook. See talk.)
Usage
The template should be placed at the bottom of the article before the Categories and interwiki language links, so that other editors will always know where to find it. Furthermore, future implementations may treat it differently in different site themes, and placing it in a standard location will make this easier.
Copy this blank version to use:
{{CoorHeader|deg|min|sec|NS|deg|min|sec|EW|optional}}
Replace the first occurrences of deg, min, and sec with the degree, minute, and second of the North-South component of the coordinates, and the second occurrences with the same for the East-West component. NS and EW should each be replaced with one or the other of N or S, and E or W. The optional can be any type:, region:, or scale: parameters that are recognised by the map server (such as the popular type:city and type:landmark options. See Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Geographical coordinates#Parameters for a comprehensive list).
