Required parameters

This template has a large number of parameters, but only two are required:

• name - The modern name, which will appear above the top line of the infobox
• location - The current City and State (or other location information, as applicable)

Map

This template can also display an optional map with these parameters:

• locmapin - The regional map to be displayed. See {{Location map}} for valid regions.
• map_width – Width of the map in pixels (Do not include "px"). Default 235.
• map_caption – Caption displayed for the map. The default caption (automatically displayed) is "Location of name in region", where name is controlled by the name parameter and region is controlled by the locmapin parameter.

To display the site's location on the map, coordinates are needed using the {{coord}} template. Coordinates may be supplied in either DMS (Degrees:Minutes:Seconds) or decimal format. See {{coord}} for details.

Designations

This infobox can display up to 5 designations, similar to {{infobox historic site}} and {{designation list}}. Normally designations are listed in decreasing scope (i.e. an international designation first, followed by a national one, etc.). Each designation is represented by a colored bar, controlled by the {{Designation}} template. Though the Designation template is used in the background here, it can be used as a stand-alone template to create tables, lists, and even other infoboxes. For more information see Template:Designation/doc.

To display a designation, there are several templates. While no parameters are necessary, it is recommended that at least the designation date and reference number (if applicable) are known before adding the designation. For each designation (1-5) the following parameters may be used:

designation1 – Input the callname of the designation here. For a list of supported callnames, see Template:Designation/doc#Supported designations.

Example format – | designation1 = World Heritage Site

designation1_offname – The official name of the historic site, as listed in the register. If the official name is the same as the common name at the top of the infobox, this field is not necessary. If more than one name is included on the register, include all of them.

Example format – | designation1_offname = Obélisque antique

designation1_type – Some registers have certain types of designations (i.e. "Natural" and "Cultural", "Grade I" and "Grade II", etc.). If the type is closely associated with the designation, input that type here.

Example format – | designation1_type = Cultural

designation1_criteria – Some registers require sites to meet specific criteria (normally one or more items in a list) for inclusion. If the criteria is known, input it here.

Example format – | designation1_criteria = ii, iv

designation1_date – Date when the site received this designation. Normally this parameter needs a reference (make sure it is properly formatted).

Example format – | designation1_date = March 4, 1972<ref>{{cite web|...}}</ref>

delisted1_date – If a site has been removed from a designation's list, this is the date of delisting. Setting a value to this parameter causes the designation's color bar to turn grey and adds the word "Former" to the beginning. This parameter also needs a reference.

Example format – | delisted1_date = March 5, 1972<ref>{{cite web|...}}</ref>

designation1_partof – Some designations are part of larger designations (i.e. an individually designated building inside a designated district or an individually designated district in a designated city). For example, Ellis Island is a part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument; both are listed as New York City Landmarks. If the larger designation is listed on the same register, include the name of the larger designation here. If a Wikipedia article exists about that designation, link to it.

Example format – | designation1_partof = [[Statue of Liberty National Monument]]

designation1_number – Most registers include unique reference numbers for each site so that they can be searched for more easily than by name (There may be two Jones Houses on the register, but they have unique reference numbers). Include this reference number here.

Example format – | designation1_number = 70010045

For designations 2-5, these same parameters are used, only "designation1" in all the parameters is replaced by "designation2", "designation3", etc.

• image - The filename for the infobox image

• originalname - The name as founded; if not in English, use {{lang}}
• translation - The English translation of the name as founded
• namesake - The patron saint(s) that the Mission was named for

• marriages - The number of marriages recorded
• burials - The number of burials recorded
• neophytes - The neophyte population as of December 31, 1832
