• title – A title for the attack; most likely this will match the article title, but you can change it to something slightly different if the title is a little over-descriptive
• location – The physical place, perhaps a specific airplane or building (multiple targets are allowed, of course), including the city, where the attack occurred; including the country is preferred for cities; including the province or state is discouraged unless necessary or well-known:

• Major, international cities: Tokyo is okay, but Tokyo, Japan is preferred unless it compromises stylistic appearance
• Major cities in well-known provinces: Toronto, Ontario, Canada is unnecessarily specific; Toronto, Ontario or Toronto, Canada is preferred (although Toronto is okay)
• Cities with relative international anonymity: Beslan is not good due to the city's relative anonymity; Beslan, Russia is preferred; Beslan, North Ossetia-Alania is discouraged; Beslan, North Ossetia-Alania, Russia is unnecessarily specific
• Cities with common names: Portland is not good; Portland, U.S. is not good either. Portland, Oregon (well-known state) or Portland, Oregon, U.S. is preferred; these two forms cannot be mistaken for Portland, Maine or any other city sharing the name Portland

The module= parameter can be used for embedding other templates into this infobox (see Wikipedia:Infobox modules):

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCalendar microformat, which makes the event details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to a calendar or diary application. Within the hCalendar 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.

Dates will only be included if you use {{Start date}} or {{End date}} (use the former for single dates, but do not use any of these if the date is before 1583 CE). {{End date}} requires that a time be specified, but display of this time may be suppressed by adding |nodate=yes to the end.

To include a URL, use {{URL}}.

hCalendar uses HTML classes including:

Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:

Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.
Also, when giving coordinates, please don't be overly precise.
