This template is used to mark articles without geolocation data (coordinates) and is easily converted, by adding them, into {{coord }}.
Usage
{{Coord missing |region name}}
Parameters
Either one of the country names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by country , or a smaller area, such as a state or province, where that sub-subcategory exists or is warranted. Where a particular country cannot be identified, one of the continent names used in the subcategories of Category:Articles missing geocoordinate data by continent should be used instead.
The categories are hidden categories . To view hidden categories, one needs to activate them in Special:Preferences . Under "Appearance", there is "Show hidden categories".
Removal of template
The template should be removed when coordinates are added to the article.
A bot occasionally removes it from all articles that already use {{coor URL }}.

Adding coordinates
To add 57°18′22″N 4°27′32″W / 57.30611°N 4.45889°W / 57.30611; -4.45889 to the top of an article, use {{Coord }}, thus:
{{Coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|display=title}}
These coordinates are in degrees , minutes , and seconds of arc.
'title' means that the coordinates will be displayed next to the title.
To add 44°06′43″N 87°54′47″W / 44.112°N 87.913°W / 44.112; -87.913 to the top of an article, use either
{{Coord|44.112|N|87.913|W|display=title}}
or
{{Coord|44.112|-87.913|display=title}}
These coordinates are in decimal degrees.
Degrees, minutes and seconds must be separated by a pipe ("|") .
Map datum must be WGS84 (except for off-earth bodies).
Avoid excessive precision (0.0001° is <11 m, 1″ is <31 m).
Latitude (N/S) must appear before longitude (E/W).
Optional coordinate parameters follow the longitude and are separated by an underscore ("_") :
Other optional parameters are separated by a pipe ("|") :
display
|display=inline
(the default) to display in the body of the article only,
|display=title
to display at the top of the article only, or
|display=inline,title
to display in both places.
name
name=
X to label the place on maps (default is PAGENAME )
Thus: {{Coord|44.117|-87.913|dim:30_region:US-WI_type:event
|display=inline,title|name=accident site}}
Use |display=title
(or |display=inline,title
) once per article, for the subject of the article, where appropriate.
