This infobox is for providing general information about a Christian church building, including its history, architecture and staff. To provide information solely about the architectural details of a church building, use {{Infobox religious building}}.

Churches vary from small chapels to large cathedrals; from corrugated iron sheds to architectural masterpieces of international importance. This template has to be adaptable to the worship locations of all religious denominations and as a consequence, it has many parameters. It is therefore important that editors exercise discretion in selecting an appropriate number of parameters. If the infobox for a particular church becomes excessive WP:BOLD applies and less significant parameters should be removed.

Usage

The full template for this infobox is set out below. Apart from the parameters indicated as mandatory and other instructions in the "Parameters" table below, all parameters are optional and may be left out to simplify the template. An example of the infobox in use is shown at the bottom of this page.

    Microformat

    The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles 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 "established", "founded", "opened" or similar dates, use {{start date}} for the earliest of those dates 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
  • uid
  • 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 use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name= parameter.
