This template, {{Coord/link}}, is used by {{Coord}}.

{{coord|10|N|30|W}}10°N 30°W / 10°N 30°W / 10; -30
{{coord|10|11|N|30|31|W}}10°11′N 30°31′W / 10.183°N 30.517°W / 10.183; -30.517
{{coord|10|11|12|N|30|31|32|W}}10°11′12″N 30°31′32″W / 10.18667°N 30.52556°W / 10.18667; -30.52556

Note: the span classes "geo-default", "geo-dec", and "geo-dms" are defined at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css.

In addition, "geo" and the nested "latitude" and "longitude" have special meaning as a Geo microformat and so might also be used by other templates; see also http://microformats.org/wiki/geo.

To always display coordinates as DMS values, add this to your common.css:

.geo-default { display: inline }
.geo-nondefault { display: inline }
.geo-dec { display: none }
.geo-dms { display: inline }

To always display coordinates as decimal values, add this to your common.css:

.geo-default { display: inline }
.geo-nondefault { display: inline }
.geo-dec { display: inline }
.geo-dms { display: none }

To display coordinates in both formats, add this to your common.css:

.geo-default { display: inline }
.geo-nondefault { display: inline }
.geo-dec { display: inline }
.geo-dms { display: inline }
.geo-multi-punct { display: inline }

If CSS is disabled, or you have an old copy of MediaWiki:Common.css cached, you will see both formats. (You can either clear your cache or manually refresh this URL: [1].)

To disable display of the blue globe adjacent to coordinates, add this to your common.js:

var wma_settings = {enabled:false}

Note that this will disable WikiMiniAtlas.
