Template:Map Link

Summary

This template creates a link to one of UESP's interactive maps for the provided location. It can be used for the Skyrim, Oblivion, Shivering Isles or Morrowind maps (normally the namespace where the template is used automatically determines the appropriate map).

Parameters

There are four options available for this template:

• Map Only – Links directly to the map with no locations specified.
• Place – Links to a place on the map.
• X,Y – Links to the location's in-game (x,y) coordinates (for example, taken from the construction set or as displayed in the console).
• Search – Searches on the provided name instead of centering the map on the provided name. This is useful when creating a map link for multiple locations. The search parameter may be a word common in several place names (e.g., "Wayshrine"), or a term from the location search tags.

Template:Map Link
Parameter	Scope	Description
All
label	optional	Text to display in link. Defaults to "(map)". For X/Y and Search options the first unnamed parameter is assumed to be the label parameter. For Place option the second unnamed parameter is the label.
zoom	optional	Zoom level to use for link. If not provided, map will use its default zoom.
ns	optional	Namespace. Defaults to SUBJECTSPACE where template is being used. To override default namespace or to use template outside of standard namespaces, set ns to "Skyrim", "Oblivion", "Shivering", or "Morrowind".
Map Only
No additional parameters. You must use a name for the label parameter in Map Only mode or it will be interpreted as a Place.
Place
place	required	Name of place as shown on UESP's map (typically same as the wiki name of the place). The first unnamed parameter is assumed to be the place parameter.
X,Y
x y	required	X- and Y-coordinates of location. These parameters must be named to use this option.
Search
search	required	Name to use for search. This parameter must be named to use this option.
