Used to display the geographic location of the conflict and the location on a map added with the <code>map_type</code> parameter. | * '''coordinates''' – ''optional'' – the location of the structure, given as a coordinate pair by using {{tl|coord}} with ''display=inline,title''.

* '''result''' – ''optional'' – this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive". The term used is for the "immediate" outcome of the "subject" conflict and should reflect what the sources say. In cases where the standard terms do not accurately describe the outcome, a link or note should be made to the section of the article where the result is discussed in detail (such as "See the {{blue|Aftermath}} section"). Such a note can also be used in conjunction with the standard terms but should not be used to conceal an ambiguity in the "immediate" result. Do not introduce non-standard terms like "decisive", "marginal" or "tactical", or contradictory statements like "decisive tactical victory but strategic defeat". Omit this parameter altogether rather than engage in [[WP:NOR|speculation]] about which side won or by how much. | * '''result''' – ''optional'' – this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive".

* '''status''' – ''optional'' – for ongoing conflicts, the current status of the conflict. | * '''status''' – ''optional'' – for ongoing conflicts, the current status of the conflict. This should not be used if a final result (above) is provided. | ||
* '''combatants_header''' – ''optional'' – sets the header text for the combatants section. Default is "Belligerents".

* '''combatant1'''/'''combatant2'''/'''combatant3''' – ''optional'' – the parties participating in the conflict. | * '''combatant1'''/'''combatant2'''/'''combatant3''' – ''optional'' – the parties participating in the conflict. This is most commonly the countries whose forces took part in the conflict; however, larger groups (such as alliances or international organizations) or smaller ones (such as particular units, formations, or groups) may be indicated if doing so improves reader understanding. When there is a large number of participants, it may be better to list only the three or four major groups on each side of the conflict, and to describe the rest in the body of the article. The '''combatant3''' field may be used if a conflict has three distinct "sides", and should be left blank on other articles. Combatants should be listed in order of importance to the conflict, be it in terms of military contribution, political clout, or a recognized chain of command. If differing metrics can support alternative lists, then ordering is left to the editors of the particular article. The practice of writing in a "Supported by" subheading is deprecated (see [[Template talk:Infobox military conflict#RfC on "supported by" being used with the belligerent parameter|discussion]]). | ||
** '''combatant1a'''/'''combatant2a'''/'''combatant3a''' – ''optional'' – in cases where the parties significantly changed over the course of the conflict, these subsidiary fields may be used to provide additional rows for the '''combatant''N''''' fields (above). | ** '''combatant1a'''/'''combatant2a'''/'''combatant3a''' – ''optional'' – in cases where the parties significantly changed over the course of the conflict, these subsidiary fields may be used to provide additional rows for the '''combatant''N''''' fields (above). | ||
** '''combatant1b'''/'''combatant2b'''/'''combatant3b''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ** '''combatant1b'''/'''combatant2b'''/'''combatant3b''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ||
** '''combatant1c'''/'''combatant2c'''/'''combatant3c''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ** '''combatant1c'''/'''combatant2c'''/'''combatant3c''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ||
** '''combatant1d'''/'''combatant2d'''/'''combatant3d''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ** '''combatant1d'''/'''combatant2d'''/'''combatant3d''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ||
* '''commander1'''/'''commander2'''/'''commander3''' – ''optional'' – the commanders of the military forces involved. | ** '''combatant1e'''/'''combatant2e'''/'''combatant3e''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | ||
* '''units1'''/'''units2'''/'''units3''' – ''optional'' – the units or formations involved. | * '''commander1'''/'''commander2'''/'''commander3''' – ''optional'' – the commanders of the military forces involved. For battles, this should include military commanders (and other officers as necessary). For wars, only prominent or notable leaders should be listed, with an upper limit of about seven per combatant column recommended. Ranks and position titles should be omitted. The {{tl|KIA}} and {{tl|POW}} templates may be included immediately after the names of commanders who were killed in action or surrendered and were taken prisoner, respectively. The '''commander3''' field can only be used if the '''combatant3''' field is set. | ||
** '''commander1a'''/'''commander2a'''/'''commander3a''' – ''optional'' – in cases where the commanders significantly changed over the course of the conflict, these subsidiary fields may be used to provide additional rows for the '''commander''N''''' fields (above). | |||
** '''commander1b'''/'''commander2b'''/'''commander3b''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | |||
** '''commander1c'''/'''commander2c'''/'''commander3c''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | |||
** '''commander1d'''/'''commander2d'''/'''commander3d''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | |||
** '''commander1e'''/'''commander2e'''/'''commander3e''' – ''optional'' – additional row, as above. | |||
* '''units1'''/'''units2'''/'''units3''' – ''optional'' – the units or formations involved. If a large number of distinct formations is present, it may be better to reference an order of battle in the body of the article than to include the entire list in this field. The '''units3''' field can only be used if the '''combatant3''' field is set. | |||
* '''strength1'''/'''strength2''' – ''optional'' – the numerical strength of the units involved. | * '''strength1'''/'''strength2''' – ''optional'' – the numerical strength of the units involved. | ||

| Line 121: | Line 120: | ||
* '''casualties3''' – ''optional'' – if '''combatant3''' is set, this is a third casualty field identical to the two above; if it is '''''not''''' set, this is an alternate combined field for use where only the total casualties of a conflict are known, or where civilian casualties cannot be directly attributed to either side. | * '''casualties3''' – ''optional'' – if '''combatant3''' is set, this is a third casualty field identical to the two above; if it is '''''not''''' set, this is an alternate combined field for use where only the total casualties of a conflict are known, or where civilian casualties cannot be directly attributed to either side. | ||

* '''campaignbox''' – ''optional'' – optional field for appending a [[WP:CAMPAIGN|campaignbox template]] to the bottom of the infobox, which allows both boxes to float as a single element (useful if there are subsequent left floating images, which would otherwise not be able to float above the campaign box); the template must be specified in the format <nowiki>{{Campaignbox XYZ}}</nowiki>. | * '''campaignbox''' – ''optional'' – optional field for appending a [[WP:CAMPAIGN|campaignbox template]] to the bottom of the infobox, which allows both boxes to float as a single element (useful if there are subsequent left floating images, which would otherwise not be able to float above the campaign box); the template must be specified in the format <nowiki>{{Campaignbox XYZ}}</nowiki>.<noinclude> | ||
