Identity Variables

Following variables help determine the identity of the city. These may include the name of the city, the province and mapping information.

Variable	Value type	Description	Examples
`official_name`	Text	City ka official name, preferably English bhasa, Urdu bhasa ya Fiji Hindi bhasa mein.	`official_name=Hyderabad`
`province`	Text	Suba Pakistan ka, jisme city located hai.	`province=Sindh`
`location_map`	Text	Should the location map be shown. If this value is not provided, the map would not be shown. The data shown in the map is relative to the latitude and longitude values provided. See Location Variables.	`location_map=true`
`flag`	Image URL	Deprecated ~~Required Image URL without the `Image:` prefix.~~ Yeh variable depricate ho giya hai kyunke Pakistan mein Karachi aur Lahore ke alaawa aur keesee shehar ka jhanda nahin hai.	`flag=Some_Image.svg`
`emblem`	Image URL	Deprecated ~~Required Image URL without the `Image:` prefix.~~ The following variable was deprecated because no city in Pakistan except for Lahore and Karachi has an emblem. It can be used for Lahore and Karachi though.	`emblem=Some_Image.svg`
`city_image`	Image URL	Required Image URL without the `Image:` prefix. Any image that displays the city in its full glory. For urban cities, this can be an image of the skyline.	`city_image=Some_Image.svg`
`map`	Image URL	Deprecated ~~Required Image URL without the `Image:` prefix.~~ The following variable was deprecated because the new `location_map` variable was introduced for this purpose.	`map=Some_Image.svg`
`map_size`	Text	Deprecated ~~The width of the map in pixels.~~ As the `map` variable was deprecated, there was no need for this variable.	`map_size=300px`
`map_text`	Text	Deprecated ~~The caption that goes underneath the map.~~ As the `map` variable was deprecated, there was no need for this variable.	`map_text=City location`
`code`	Text	The dialling code for the city.	`code=022`

Location Variables

Following variables help determine the location of the city in latitudinal and longitudinal values. These values are usually depicted in degrees, minutes and seconds.

Variable	Value type	Description	Examples
`n1`	Number	The degree° latitude.	`n1=25`
`n2`	Number	The minutes' for the latitude.	`n2=22`
`n3`	Number	The seconds" for the latitude.	`n3=45`
`e1`	Number	The degree° longitude.	`e1=68`
`e2`	Number	The minutes' for the longitude.	`e2=22`
`e3`	Number	The seconds" for the longitude.	`e3=06`

This information is necessary to generate the locator map for the city.

Elevation Variables

The elevation variables determine the elevation of the city above sea level. Giving minimum and maximum elevation levels, lets the template compute and average elevation for the city henceforth.

Variable	Value type	Description	Examples
`elevation_m`	Number	The elevation of the city above sea-level.	`elevation_m=13`
`elevation_m_min`	Number	The minimum elevation of a city above sea-level.	`elevation_m_min=10`
`elevation_m_max`	Number	The maximum elevation of the city above sea-level.	`elevation_m_max=16`

If the value of elevation_m is not provided and the other two are, then the value would automatically be calculated as the near mean average.

Demographic Variables

Demographic variables help in projecting the population and other statistics of the city.

Variable	Value type	Description	Examples
`census_year`	Number	The most recent year a census was undertaken.	`census_year=2001`
`estimate_year`	Number	The most recent year an estimate of the population was devised.	`estimate_year=2006`
`census_pop`	Number	The population that was devised as an outcome of a census.	`census_pop=1363500`
`estimate_pop`	Number	The recent population levels estimated on projected values.	`estimate_pop=1447275`
`population_density_km2`	Number	Number of people per square kilometer.	`poplation_density_km2=1970`
`area_total_km2`	Number	Total area in square kilometers.	`area_total_km2=1970`
`towns`	Number	Total number of towns in the city (other neighbourhoods).	`towns=5`
`uc`	Number	Total number of union council seats in the region.	`towns=5`

Government Variables

Variable	Value type	Description	Examples
`nazim`	Text	The name of the nazim or the mayor.	`nazim=Some Name`
`naib nazim`	Text	The name of the naib nazim or the deputy mayor.	`naib nazim=Some Name`
`footnotes`	Wiki	Any additional information you'd like the user to know about. This field is mostly used to indicate an eGovernance initiative by the Government like the Government's own website, etc.	`[http://www.hyderabad.gov.pk Official Website]`

Simple examples

Only the values that need to be addressed be provided. For instance, if you were to create an infobox for Hyderabad, Sindh. You would provide the following template code while editing.

{{Pakistani Cities|official_name=Hyderabad|province=Sindh}}

If more data be provided, as is the case below, more information would be displayed.

{{Pakistani Cities|official_name=Hyderabad|province=Sindh|n1=25|n2=22|n3=45|e1=68|e2=22|e3=06|location_map=true}}

The above would generate simple information with a locator map to indicate the position of the city on the map of Pakistan. However, if you'd like to use the complete functionality, then use in the way below. Here, displayed is the basic information for the city of Karachi.

Microformat

The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article 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 an "established", "founded", "opened" or similar date, use {{Start date}} (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
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 don't be overly precise.
