Parameters[edit]

All parameters are optional.

name: Location name. Defaults to {{PAGENAME}}
hearts: Number of renown hearts
waypoints: Number of waypoints
points-of-interest: Number of points of interest
hero challenges: Number of hero challenges
vistas: Number of vistas
map: Map image (do not include the "File:" prefix). Defaults to '{{PAGENAME}} map.jpg'
map text: Optional. Defaults to "Map of {{{name|{{PAGENAME}}}}}". As an example, this could be used on zone articles with multiple layers to label that the particular area is on the Depths level.
levels: Depends on the type used, see as follows; Zone: The level range for the zone. Separate minimum and maximum levels with a single hyphen "-", e.g. 60 - 70; Area: The effective level of the area. For the case of dungeon areas where there is an explorable level and a story level, separate values with commas.
type: The type of location. Use plain text with no wiki-links.; Available options: "Continent", "Region", "Zone", "Area", "City", "Guild hall", "Dungeon", "Activity", "Strike Mission", "Raid", "Fractal", "Point of interest", "Landmark", "Jumping puzzle", "Mini-dungeon", "Guild puzzle", or "Instance".
within: The parent location of the location being described. Use plain text with no wiki-links. For zones, this should be a region; for areas, this should be a zone; for everything else, this will usually be an area. If within is an area or zone, the parent of within will be displayed underneath in small text.
connections: Other locations that this one has connections to. Usually only specified on zones. Separate multiple connections with <br> and add your own wiki-links. The cardinal direction is usually specified in brackets after the zone name; (N), (S), (E), (W), (NE), etc. In the case of a portal, add (portal) instead of direction. See the Queensdale example below.
pets: Ranger-tameable juvenile animals. Like "connections" above, separate with <br> and provide links manually. Include for zone infoboxes, redundant for location infoboxes (see discussion page).
objectives: Defaults to "n". Only set equal to "y" if the location has map objectives that contribute towards world completion (core tyria).
loading-screen: Loading screen image (do not include the "File:" prefix). Defaults to '{{PAGENAME}} loading screen.jpg'
gallery1 ... gallery5: Optional. Images related to the location. The first image defaults to {{PAGENAME}}.jpg.
gallery1-text ... gallery5-text: Optional. Image descriptions.
locator: Use to specify the SVG locator image if the page name doesn't match the filename. Defaults to '{{PAGENAME}} locator.svg'
locator text: Optional. Very seldom used, but allows the default of "Location within {{{within}}}" text to be over-ridden with "Location within {{{locator text}}}".
coordinates: Optional. The X and Y coordinates for the location. Displays an interactive map with a marker at the given location. e.g. [12345, 31321]. Only displayed for pages with the "type" set equal to "Point of interest", "Dungeon" or "Landmark". See Template:Infobox map for details on how to capture coordinates.
localtiles: Optional. If set, uses local wiki tiles instead of the API raster tiles. See Category:Map raster tiles.
id: The game ID for the location, displayed as a game link. Shown directly as a chat link for points of interest. Also provides an API link to API:2/maps if appropriate. Also sets a variable "#var:mapID" which allows Template:Interactive map to work. Sets the semantic property Property:Has region id or Property:Has map id if appropriate.
sector id: The game ID for the sector (intentionally separate from the id parameter above), not visually displayed in the infobox however this parameter sets the semantic property Property:Has sector id. This property is found in the continents API endpoint. Separate multiple values with a semi-colon (;) - this is required functionality for areas which have been documented for both story and explorable dungeons.
categorize: "y" or "n" to turn on/off categorization. Default is on for main namespace articles and off for others. If using "status", don't set this parameter.
status: Status of content. Only set if not currently obtainable ingame, displays relevant notice. Available options: "historical", "future", "unimplemented", "current" (default). See {{infobox status}} for options.
status notes: Additional notes to explain the given status. For example, if the content was only available during a specific release.
status date: Optional. Sets the date of the update that marked this skill as historical (in YYYY-MM-DD format).
requires: The expansion or living world season required to access the content. Displays a notice of the release. See {{infobox requires}} for options.
