Template:Infobox mountain/Berg/doc

Usage
This template enables data on mountains imported from German Wikipedia (using de:Vorlage:Infobox Berg) to be translated and displayed in English Wikipedia. This saves the enormous amount of work otherwise entailed in translating parameters and data into en.wiki templates. Some of this translation involves technical terms that may not be obvious to some translators. In addition, en.wiki templates are not capable of displaying all the information provided here.

The template is available for the hundreds of articles on German, Austrian and Swiss mountains being translated into English Wikipedia that will be able to take full advantage of its features.

When translating an article from German Wikipedia, just import the infobox and translate any free text. It is worth previewing the result first as data in several parameters will be automatically translated if recognised; otherwise it defaults to the entered text. This feature is being enhanced continually. Blank parameters are ignored. The parameter text is shown below; their use is explained in the Parameters section.

Coordinates
The display of coordinates has now been automated.

The following parameters are relevant for isolation and prominence information:

Example
