=== Latitude and longitude ===
These parameters are use to place [[geographic coordinates]] in the upper right corner of the page (outside the infobox) via the {{tl|coord}} template. The [[latitude]] and [[longitude]] must be whole [[Geographic coordinate system#Degrees: a measurement of angle|degrees and minutes]] (displayed 38°25′N, 76°05′W). If entering degrees only, the minutes default to zero.
NOTE: These parameters do not currently support [[decimal degrees]] (displayed 38.42, -76.08) or whole degrees with decimal minutes (displayed 38°25.9', -76°05.4' or 38°25.9'N, 76°05.4'W).
; lat deg          : (optional) degrees of latitude North, i.e. 38
; lat min          : (optional) minutes of latitude North, i.e. 25 (defaults to zero if omitted)
; long deg          : (optional) degrees of longitude West, i.e. 76 or 076 (do not prefix this with "-" as that will display latitude East)
; long min          : (optional) minutes of longitude West, i.e. 5 or 05 (defaults to zero if omitted)
In some cases it may be preferable to omit the latitude/longitude parameters and manually add the {{tl|coord}} template to the article. The following is an example that includes decimal degrees, displays them in D/M/S format, and notes the source of the coordinates:
:<code><nowiki>{{coord|38.42|-76.08|format=dms|display=title|type:adm2nd_region:US-MD_source:UScensus1990}}</nowiki></code>
