To add a page to WikiProject Climbing, add the {{WikiProject Climbing}} template to the article's talk page.

There is one infobox that makes any mountain infobox: {{Infobox mountain}}. See an example, right, of the use of the template. This template has three required parameters:

• Name
• Elevation (metric units first, but Imperial units first for peaks in the USA
• Location (State/Province, then country).

It has many optional parameters:

• Photo (filename, no need for "Image:")
• Caption (only if there is a photo)
• Range (if applicable)
• Prominence (if known)
• Coordinates (for use with {{coord}}
• Topographic map (map authority, map name)
• Type (see List of mountain types)
• Age (of rock)
• Last eruption (if volcano, last major eruption, not steam)
• First ascent (if not a hike-up mountain, year and members of expedition)
• Easiest route
• Grid_ref_uk
• Grid_ref_ireland
• Listing (if peak belongs to well-known list of hills, e.g., Munros)
• Translation (if peak name is not English, it is good to provide a translation)
• Language (if peak name is not English)
• Pronunciation (if non-obvious)

Copy and paste a sample infobox from any of the following links to get started:

• Infobox for mountains in the Alps
• Infobox for mountains in Canada
• Infobox for mountains in the Himalaya
• Infobox for mountains in the United Kingdom
• Infobox for mountains in the United States

The previous multi-template is now deprecated.

Mountain template

Talk pages of articles about mountains are encouraged to use {{Mountain}}. The talk pages that do use this template are at Pages linking to Mountain. A sorted list of these pages is at List of mountains.
