Notes[edit]
A note on peer wikilinks: the wikilinks of substantive peers (or those in another kind of numbered succession) should always show that number (eg Richard, 1st Earl of Cornwall rather than Richard, Earl of Cornwall), unless other conventions say otherwise (such as that one should always see Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, never Prince Edward, 2nd Duke of Kent). Generally, use the article's title, omitting surplus fore- and surnames or disambiguation.
Parameters[edit]
All parameters are optional (even "name" can be taken from PAGENAME).
| name / title / type / image | |
| name = | Most common English/Anglicised name (e.g. George III; Prince William (not William, Duke of Cumberland); Sophie (neither Princess Edward nor Princess Sophie); Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (rather than Queen Elizabeth); Prince William (rather than Prince William of Wales) etc.) |
| title = | Principal substantive title(s) in use (e.g. King of England; prev. Duke of Edinburgh) (omit this field if any one "succession(X)" field would be identical to it) |
| titletext = | An explanatory note about "title", already in <small>s — such as a link to full titles (dependent upon "title") |
| more = | Automatically-generated alternative to "titletext"; only appears if "titletext" is undefined/empty and "realm" is defined
|
| image = | i.e. X.jpg, that is to say no [[Image: |
| image_size = | A value for the width of the image; for images smaller than the default width of 210px (e.g. "120" (no units (e.g. px)); dependent upon "image") |
| alt = | Alt text for the image, for visually impaired readers see WP:ALT |
| caption = | Details of artist and year, for instance see WP:CAP |
| succession fields | |
| succession = | Primary substantive hereditary title (regarding the following fields, "reign" 'til "suc-type"; omit the "title" field if the two would be identical) |
| moretext = | An explanatory note about the "succession", already in <small>s — such as a link to full titles (dependent upon "succession") |
| reign = | D Month YYYY – D Month YYYY (or other appropriate format per MOS:DATE#Dates; for monarchs and their consorts (although dates may differ between the two)) |
| reign-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Reign' (dependent upon "reign") |
| coronation = | D Month YYYY (or other appropriate format per MOS:DATE#Dates; for monarchs and their consorts) |
| cor-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Coronation', such as 'Investiture' (dependent upon "coronation"). Automatically links to country-specific article if one of the following values is entered:
|
| predecessor = | For use in succession whose titles are entirely and directly hereditary. Link should be piped as appropriate — when it is reasonably clear that the person in context is a (e.g.) King of Scots, he may be linked as "James II" rather than "James II of Scotland". |
| pre-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Predecessor' (dependent upon "predecessor") |
| regent = | Any regents of the monarch in their role in this succession only; listed by most common name/title, most recent first, with line breaks (<br />) |
| reg-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Regent' (dependent upon "regent") |
| successor = | As predecessor, mutatis mutandis |
| suc-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Successor'. e.g. 'Heir-Apparent' or 'Heir-Presumptive' (dependent upon "successor") |
| "succession" to "suc-type" repeated as "successionX" to "suc-typeX" for 1–3 | |
| spouse fields | |
| consort = |
|
| spouse = | Husbands/wives only; listed by most common name/title, in chronological order, with line breaks (<br />), and dates if needed, e.g. (m. 2004; div. 2006; dec. 2007; wid. 2008). Break dates onto a new line if more visually appropriate |
| spouse-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Spouse' (no plurals needed); "consort"=yes (above) produces 'Consort to' here (dependent upon "spouse", effected by "consort") |
| repeated as "spouseX" and "spouseX-type" for 1–4 | |
| issue = | Descending in order of birth, separated by line breaks (<br />); listed by name and highest shorthand title (e.g. Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex), no need for preceding styles (e.g. HM). Individuals without articles and/or who died as infants may be omitted from the list on an arbitrary basis. See also note for 'predecessor'. |
| issue-link = | Creates small link to a section in the article for further details on offspring (dependent upon "issue") |
| issue-pipe = | Changes the output text of the above link (dependent upon "issue-link") |
| full name = | English/Anglicised full legal non-titular name (current/most recent), with maiden name '(née Whatever)' and translation in their native/official tongue(s) on a new line (each) underneath (use a ''{{lang-XX|}}'' Multilingual support template) |
|
era name = |
For Asian era names, wikilinked if appropriate (dependent upon "era dates") |

| house-type = | Optional alternative text for 'Royal house', such as 'Dynasty' or 'Family' (dependent upon "house") |
| father = | Most common shorthand title, no need for preceding styles (e.g. HM). May include multiple individuals, such as (Biological), (Adoptive) or (Hanai). See also note for 'predecessor'. |
| mother = | As "father", m.m. |
| birth_date = |
|
| birth_place = | Residence, Town/City/County/Region/Country (although almost invariably Country is obvious) HOWEVER, TAKE CARE TO AVOID FLAGCRUFT (dependent upon "date of birth") |
| death_date = |
|
| death_place = | See "birth_place", m.m. (dependent upon "death_date") |
| burial_date = | See "birth_date", m.m. |
| burial_place = | See "birth_place", m.m. (dependent upon "burial_place") |
| occupation = | Primary non-royal occupations, listed most recent first (if the subject is deceased there's no need for 'prev.') e.g. 'Theatre; prev. Broadcasting' (alive), or 'Military; Author' (dead) |

Microformats[edit]
The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book or database. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Sub-templates[edit]
Date-of-birth ("bday") information will only be included in the microformat if {{Birth date}}, {{Birth date and age}}, or {{Birth-date}} are used in the infobox. (but do not use these if the date is before 1583).
To include a URL, use {{URL}}.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
