Warning: Class template

This is the main template for the Place class—it should primarily be used with Form:Place to create or edit associated pages, and not invoked in other circumstances. Most of the content can be edited with the VisualEditor, but for best functionality please use the specified form.

Pages which use this template are listed at Category:Places.

Subtemplates

Multiple subtemplates support this class:

Template:Place/service annotates subobject data for services.
Template:Place/person annotates subobject data for people.
Template:Place/link is a passthrough for infobox display of custom links.
Template:Place/preload holds the preload data for Form:Place.

TemplateData

The main template for the "Place" class (which is mostly studios/printshops, but constitutes all the things that show up in the Atlas). This template handles semantic annotation and transcludes display templates for the data (mainly Template:Infobox place).
