This template creates a points of interest table row, with links to mapping resources using the latitude/longitude WGS84 coordinates system (in Great Britain, use {{ PoIgb}} to also include OS Grid Refs). Please supply an accurate (but not over-precise) latitude and longitude as the 2nd and 3rd parameters.
Use {{ PoI start}} as the table header row and {{ PoI end}} for the footer.
The template uses {{ coord}}; see that page for parameters.
Use {{ PoIx}} if coordinates are missing, or leave the coordinates blank.
Delete or overwrite parameters as appropriate

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.
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.
hCard uses HTML classes including:
Geo is produced by calling {{ coord}}, and uses HTML classes:
Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.
When giving coordinates, please use an
appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{
coord}}'s |name=
parameter.
Pages which use multiple instances of this template, can also use {{ kml}} in their External links section, to offer a variety of ways of viewing or downloading the coordinates.
