| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox constellation It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| This template uses Lua: |
Purpose
This template provides a standardized infobox for the 88 IAU recognized constellations; the modern constellations used in modern-day science.
Usage
{{Infobox constellation
| name = <!-- IAU constellation name -->
| native = <!-- IAU three letter abbreviation -->
| translation = <!-- English form of the constellation -->
| pronounce = <!-- pronunciation -->
| culture = <!-- culture/language -->
| RA = {{RA}} – {{RA}} <!-- right ascension range -->
| dec = {{DEC}} – {{DEC}} <!-- declination range -->
| areatotal =
| numbermainstars = <!-- number of HIPs > 6.5 mag in convex hull -->
| numberbfstars = <!-- The number of stars with Bayer or Flamsteed designations
in the constellation -->
| numberstarsplanets = X (Y with candidates)
<!-- X being the number of stars with confirmed planets,
Y being the number of stars with solid candidate planets
without confirmed planets -->
| numberbrightstars = <!-- Number of stars with an apparent magnitude less than ~=3
( apparent magnitude < 3 ) -->
| numbernearbystars = <!-- Number of stars that are closer than 10pc
( distance < 10 parsecs ) -->
| brighteststarname = <!-- the star with the brightest apparent magnitude
( usually this would be "α genitive" ) -->
| starmagnitude =
| neareststarname =
| stardistance =
| numbermessierobjects =
| meteorshowers =
| bordering =

}}Parameters
- name – (Mandatory) — The name of the constellation, as defined by the IAU
- native – (Mandatory) — The three letter IAU abbreviation for the constellation
- translation – (Mandatory) — The genetive form of the constellation's name used in the construction of star names in Bayer designations and Flamsteed designations
- pronounce – (Optional) — The pronunciation of the constellation's name, and the genitive form. Please use the IPA and optionally respelling.
|pronounce=
;Name
* {{IPAc-en|IPA}} {{respell|respelling}}
;Genitive
* {{IPAc-en|IPA}} {{respell|respelling}}- symbolism – (Optional) — the meaning of the constellation
- ie. Draco, is "the dragon", so fill in as the dragon
- RA and dec -- coordinates of the constellation
- RA – (Mandatory) — right ascension, use the {{Template:Right ascension}} or {{Deg2HMS}} template to fill in this parameter
- the right ascension of the lower and upper extremes of the constellation
- dec – (Mandatory) — declination, use the {{Template:Declination}} template to fill in this parameter
- the declination of the lower and upper extremes of the constellation
- RA – (Mandatory) — right ascension, use the {{Template:Right ascension}} or {{Deg2HMS}} template to fill in this parameter
- liststyle – (Optional) — style for included lists; default is plain,
hlistfor horizontal andflatlistfor bulleted.
