The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCalendar microformat, which makes the event details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to a calendar or diary application. Within the hCalendar is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Dates will only be included if you use {{Start date}} or {{End date}} (use the former for single dates; (but do not use any of these if the date is before 1583 CE).
To include a URL, use {{URL}}.
hCalendar uses HTML classes including:
Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:
Please do not rename or remove these classes; nor collapse nested elements which use them.
When giving coordinates, please don't be overly precise.
