I think you're confusing the coord template with the #coordinates: parser function - unintuitively, they're both in brackets. The first is a generic way of displaying some coordinates. It can be built by code from individual parameters, like on id.wp, or it can be passed already built, like on en.wp. What it does inside varies, and some wikis, in addition to displaying the coordinates, also call the parser function. The parser function, on the other hand, simply saves the data in the database, without displaying anything. It is almost always called from templates or modules and very rarely directly from pages. Adding it to Template:coord (or Module:Coordinates, for most wikis nowadays) makes the coordinates magically appear in the database in some time. For instance, these are the changes I made to use the parser function on ro.wp: https://ro.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Modul%3ACoordonate&type=revision&diff=8110189&oldid=8099705 Strainu > > See also: > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Coordinates_in_infoboxes > > I'm now pondering if there's a quick way to asses for which wikis this > is the case...
