Template:Infobox roller coaster/doc

This template should only be used in articles on individual roller coasters. It should not be used in the park's article, as the auto-categorization will place the article in several inappropriate categories. Also, it should not be used in park articles because every coaster should have its own article, and cluttering up the park's article with infoboxes simply doesn't look good.

For dual-tracked coasters, use Infobox dual roller coaster.

Multiple-location roller coaster
A simple additional location can be named in parameter "location2=" but a 2nd site with separate status or dates should be fully specified, instead, by parameter "extend=" with a full {.../extend} infobox for each location, as shown below:

Additional locations
Additional locations should be placed in separate, back-to-back calls to Infobox roller coaster/extend with the extend parameter as shown below: Note how each instance of extend= contains its own location parameter in addition to other parameters like status, opened, etc.See the extend parameter description below for more information on how to add additional locations. Also see "Backlot Stunt Coaster" to see how this template has been applied for three locations.

Primary location
! colspan="3" |
 * location || The name of the park where the coaster resides, or use "Portable" if the coaster does not have a fixed location. Use the full, properly capitalized name of the park. Do not include disambiguatory brackets as described in locationarticle below, and do not link it. It will be linked automatically, so the park name must be exact. || La Ronde
 * locationarticle || If a park article contains disambiguatory brackets, for example La Ronde (amusement park), then use the complete name here. This will link the text in the 'location' field to the correct article. || La Ronde (amusement park)
 * altname || Name of ride at primary location, if different from the article name. Name history may be placed here as an unbulleted list using plainlist or ubl. ||
 * section || The section of the park where the coaster is located. Should not be linked, as a section link will be automatically generated using the location parameter. For example, a location of Six Flags Great Adventure and a section of Golden Kingdom will create this link: Golden Kingdom . || Golden Kingdom
 * subsection || If the coaster is located within a subsection of a larger section within a park, provide the name for that subsection here. Should not be linked, a section link will be automatically generated using the location parameter. || X-Base
 * coordinates || The geographical coordinates for the roller coaster's station. The template Coord should be used with the parameter  for a single coaster or   for multiple coasters. Coordinates should be rounded to the nearest .0001 (ten thousandths). || -27.8623°N, 153.3149°W
 * status || The current status of the roller coaster: . For long-term closures, use Closed. For those under refurbishment, use Under construction. || Operating
 * opened || The date the coaster officially opened to the public. For unofficial preview openings, use the "soft-opened" parameter. Use the Start date template and add the  flag when the country the coaster is located in uses the DD-MM-YY date format. This will auto-categorize by opening year. || September 17, 2011
 * soft_opened || The date the coaster first opened unofficially and not to the public. Should be used for preview dates (e.g., media day) using the Start date template and add the  flag when the country the coaster is located in uses the DD-MM-YY date format. || September 17, 2011
 * year || The year the coaster opened under its current name (optional). This overrides the  parameter and categorizes the coaster by opening year (helpful when the current name is not the same as when it first opened). Must only contain numerals and should only be used in conjunction with the "opened" parameter. || 2011
 * closed || The date the coaster officially closed and ceased operations. Should only be used if the coaster is closed permanently or indefinitely. Do not use this field for seasonal closures or when the coaster is undergoing routine maintenance. Use the End date template and add the  flag when the country the coaster is located in uses the DD-MM-YY date format. || August 8, 2003
 * cost || The cost of construction expressed in the currency of the country where the coaster is located. || A$7 million

Measurement conversions
By default, measurement conversions in this template invoke convert, which will automatically attempt to round to a level of precision that is similar to the input value. Most of the time, this works as expected. However, there are situations where the output may not be satisfactory.
 * Default behavior, for comparison:
 * 179 → 179 km/h (111 mph) ✅
 * 180 → 180 km/h (110 mph) ❌

In the second example above, the actual conversion is 111.847. However, the input value of 180 only has two significant figures, so the conversion rounds to the nearest tens position resulting in 110. A workaround available in this template is to specify the number of significant figures.
 * 180
 * 3 → 180 km/h (112 mph) ✅
 * Note: Setting 3 forces the conversion to use three significant figures and round to the ones position resulting in 112 (rounds up from 111.8).
