Blank template
NOTE: population figures, year and month of the population estimate and a population reference are now added automatically thanks to the templates from Category:Swiss populations data templates. For former municipalities (villages); use either the population from before the merger, N/A or leave the population field blank. The current list of recognized municipalities can be found at the Swiss Federal Statistical Office in either German or French. Look for the Excel file called "Amtliches Gemeindeverzeichnis der Schweiz - MS-Excel Version" साँचा:de icon or "Répertoire officiel des communes de Suisse - Version MS-Excel" साँचा:fr icon.

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 an "established", "founded", "opened" or similar date, use साँचा:tl unless the date is before 1583 CE.
If it has a URL, use साँचा:tl.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.

- adr

- county-name
- extended-address
- fn
- label
- locality
- nickname
- note
- org
- region

Geo is produced by calling साँचा:tl, and uses HTML classes:
- geo
- latitude
- longitude
Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.
