Category:Coord template needing repair

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories.

This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme.

This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (appearance → show hidden categories) is set.
These categories can be used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience.
These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

Administrators: Please do not delete this category even if it is empty!
This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This maintenance category lists articles which contain erroneous {{Coord}} templates.

Types of errors and ways to repair them

Section	Error	Suggestions for repair
'	Coordinates with minutes >=60 or <0 (such as 1°75'N)	Check the coordinates. Many programs treat 1°75' as 2°15'. If the value is > 60, it's likely that decimal values have been entered as minutes, e.g. 1°75' `{{Coord\|1\|75\|N\|2\|20\|E}}` instead of 1.75° (`{{Coord\|1.75\|N\|2.20\|E}}`). If the value is exactly 60, it may be the result of poor numerical rounding, and only require the carrying of the value into the degrees field.
"	Coordinates with seconds >=60 or <0 (such as 1°01'80"N)	Check the coordinates. Many programs treat 1'80" as 2'20". If the value is > 60, it's likely that decimal values have been entered as degrees-minutes-seconds, e.g. 1°65'85" `{{Coord\|1\|65\|85\|N\|2\|20\|85\|E}}` instead of 1.6585° (`{{Coord\|1.6585\|N\|2.2085\|E}}`). If the value is exactly 60, it may be the result of poor numerical rounding, and only require the carrying of the value into the minutes field.
>	Coordinates with latitude degrees > 90 (such as 96°N) or longitude degrees >= 360 (such as 7895°W)	Check the coordinates. It could be that the latitude and longitude are swapped or that a decimal point is missing.
<	Coordinates with latitude degrees < -90 or longitude degrees <= -360 (e.g. -91°N)	Check the coordinates. It could be that the latitude and longitude are swapped or that a decimal point is missing.
?	{{Coord}} got parameters that don't match any of the formats it understands.	Check the unnamed parameters (listed in red after the error message) against the template documentation. If dec format was intended, there should be no more than three unnamed parameters. If dms format was intended, the 4th unnamed parameter should be "N" or "S" and the 8th unnamed parameter should be "E" or "W". If dm format was intended, the 3rd unnamed parameter should be "N" or "S" and the 6th unnamed parameter should be "E" or "W". If d format was intended, the 2nd unnamed parameter should be "N" or "S" and the 4th unnamed parameter should be "E" or "W".
#	{{Coord}} got too many unnamed parameters.	Check the parameter list against the documentation of {{coord}}. Often coordinate parameters need to be merged. This can be as simple as replacing a pipe ( \| ) with an underscore ( _ ). For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city\|region:ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city_region:ZZ}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city\|format=dms\|region:ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city_region:ZZ\|format=dms}}`
D	{{Coord}} got a named parameter "dim=".	Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|dim=100}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|dim:100}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|dim=100\|format=dms\|region:ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|dim:100_region:ZZ\|format=dms}}`
G	{{Coord}} got a named parameter "globe=".	Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|globe=moon}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|globe:moon}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|globe=moon\|format=dms\|dim:100}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|globe:moon_dim:100\|format=dms}}`
R	{{Coord}} got a named parameter "region=".	Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|region=ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|region:ZZ}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city\|format=dms\|region=ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city_region:ZZ\|format=dms}}`
S	{{Coord}} got a named parameter "scale=".	Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|scale=5000}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|scale:5000}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|scale=5000\|format=dms\|region:ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|scale:5000_region:ZZ\|format=dms}}`
T	{{Coord}} got a named parameter "type=".	Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type=city}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type=city\|format=dms\|region:ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|type:city_region:ZZ\|format=dms}}`
s	{{Coord}} got a named parameter "source=".	Replace the equal sign (=) with a colon (:) and merge as necessary. For example: Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|source=gnis}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|source:gnis}}` Change `{{Coord\|1\|2\|source=gnis\|format=dms\|region:ZZ}}` to `{{Coord\|1\|2\|source:gnis_region:ZZ\|format=dms}}`
