Fields
All fields used by this template are optional. Some fields require other fields to be completed in order to display data correctly. The following fields are available:
| Parameter | Description | Source/notes | Values |
|---|---|---|---|
| theban | type selection | For tombs located in the Theban Necropolis, this parameter should be set to "yes". For all other tombs, this parameter should be left empty, and may be deleted from the article. | "yes" or empty |
| name | name | Name of the tomb | plain text |
| owner | tomb owner | This should normally be the name of the person for whom the tomb was built. In cases where the name of the owner is unknown, or the tomb is used by more than one owner, or for another purpose, a brief descriptor should be used. e.g. "royal cache". | wikitext (can contain links) |
| image | generic image of the tomb | filename without "file". e.g. example.jpg | |
| image_upright | width of image | This is an optional field. If not specified, the image width will default to |upright=1.13, which is approximately 250px if the default thumbnail size has not been changed at Special:Preferences) The size should not be set to a value that would result in an image width greater than 300px.

Tracking category
Microformat
The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard 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.
Sub-templates
If the place or venue has "established", "founded", "opened" or similar dates, use {{start date}} for the earliest of those dates unless the date is before 1583 CE.
If it has a URL, use {{URL}}.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
Classes
hCard uses HTML classes including:
- adr
- agent
- category
- county-name
- extended-address
- fn
- label
- locality
- nickname
- note
- org
- region
- street-address
- uid
- url
- vcard
Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:
- geo
- latitude
- longitude
Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.
Precision
When giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name= parameter.
