{{Lake
|lake name =
|image =
|description =
|country =
|region =
|coords = Latitude: <br>Longitude:
|square =
|height =
|depth =
|water type =
|water temp =
|rating =
|map =
}}
Example Usage
- After the equal sign, fill in all available information about the lake, as shown in the example below. If certain data is not available, leave the field blank.
{{Lake |lake name = Issyk-Kul |image = Issyk-Kul lake, Kyrgyzstan.jpg |description= Summer at Issyk-Kul |country = Kyrgyzstan |region = Issyk-Kul Region |coords = Latitude: 42°26′1″<br>Longitude: 77°15′46″ |square = 6236 km² |height = 1603 meters above sea level |depth = Maximum - 702 m<br>Average - 210 meters |water type = Saline (5.9%) |water temp = Average (summer): 22°C<br>Average (winter): 3°C |rating = 5 |map = {{Location map | Kyrgyzstan | AlternativeMap = Relief Map of Kyrgyzstan.png | width = 270 | float = center | caption = Issyk-Kul on the map | alt = Map of Kyrgyzstan | label = Issyk-Kul | position = bottom | lat_deg = 42.4336 | lon_deg = 77.2627}} }}
- To display a location map with a marker indicating the lake’s position, add the following line in the `|map =` field:
|map = {{Location map | Kyrgyzstan | AlternativeMap = Relief Map of Kyrgyzstan.png | width = 270 | float = center | caption = Issyk-Kul on the map | alt = Map of Kyrgyzstan | label = Issyk-Kul | position = bottom | lat_deg = 42.4336 | lon_deg = 77.2627}}
This template requires key map parameters: country, map type, caption, coordinates, and a default map size.
