Template:Infobox lighthouse/doc

Infobox lighthouse may be used to summarise information about a lighthouse. Much of this infobox's data will be retrieved from Wikidata. Editors are encouraged to add data to the relevant item.

Bespoke numbering systems
If a country has its own numbering system (such as the Netherlands), the country name, ID number and a link (optional) may be specified.
 * country
 * countrynumber
 * countrylink

Fetch wikidata
To fetch specific fields from Wikidata (and no others) the fetchwikidata can be used. For example, to fetch the date of construction and the date of deactivation, use: If this parameter is not specified then all available fields will be fetched.
 * constructed,yeardeactivated

To suppress certain fields (but fetch others), the suppressfields can be used. For example, to suppress the range of the lighthouse and its intensity, use: If this parameter is not specified then no fields will be suppressed.
 * range,intensity

By default, the template will use the Wikidata item associated with the article. In some cases (for example, if the article is about an island but contains some information about a lighthouse on that island) you will need to specify the Wikidata Q-identifier using qid. For example:
 * Q28333621

Embedding other templates
The module parameter can be used for embedding other templates into this infobox (see Infobox modules):

 * It has not be turned off by setting no
 * mapframe-zoom zoom level (default is 10)
 * mapframe-width and mapframe-height for the map size (defaults are 270 and 200)

 * either mapframe-marker-color or mapframe-marker-colour for the marker colour (hex triplet, default is )
