Thiorosan: Create Map landing page (map-stack docs: link templates, #map embed, data model)

Create Map landing page (map-stack docs: link templates, #map embed, data model)

New page

<div style="font-style:italic; font-size:110%;">the atlas of the world, and the craft of charting it</div>
</div>

This is the home of '''Yezur's map''' — the slippy map, editing tools, and data behind [https://yezur.xyz yezur.xyz]. Where the [[Main Page|encyclopedia]] describes the world in prose, the map holds it as geography: coastlines, cities, roads, and borders, all editable and queryable. These pages document how the map is built and how the rest of the wiki links into it.

<div style="margin:1em 0;">{{#map:zoom=2}}</div>

== Linking to the map from an article ==
Articles point at real map features with these templates:

{| class="wikitable"
! Template !! Points to !! Example
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{Node|id|label}}</nowiki></code> || a single point (a place, a peak) || {{Node|221905|City centre}}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{Way|id|label}}</nowiki></code> || a line or area (a road, a lake) || {{Way|123456|Coast road}}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{Relation|id|label}}</nowiki></code> || grouped features (a country, a route) || {{Relation|481363|Andusia}}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{Coordslink|lat|lon|zoom|label}}</nowiki></code> || a point by coordinates || {{Coordslink|12.34|56.78|10|Old Harbour}}
|}

== Embedding a live map ==
The <code><nowiki>{{#map:}}</nowiki></code> parser function drops an interactive map into a page. Working parameters:

{| class="wikitable"
! Parameter !! Meaning !! Example
|-
| <code>zoom</code> || initial zoom level || <code>zoom=6</code>
|-
| <code>center</code> || centre point, as <code>lat,lon</code> || <code>center=12.34,56.78</code>
|-
| <code>layer</code> || base layer name || <code>layer=satellite</code>
|-
| <code>query</code> || an Overpass query to draw || <code><nowiki>query=[out:json];node(60117);out;</nowiki></code>
|}

For example, <code><nowiki>{{#map:zoom=5|center=12.34,56.78}}</nowiki></code> embeds a map centred on those coordinates.

== The data model ==
Yezur's map follows the familiar three-part model:
* '''Nodes''' — single points (a well, a summit, a village centre).
* '''Ways''' — ordered runs of nodes, forming roads and rivers or the outlines of areas.
* '''Relations''' — groups of nodes and ways that together make something larger, such as an administrative border or a numbered route.

Every feature carries a stable ID — that is what the linking templates above point to, and what an Overpass query returns.

== Companion works ==
* '''[[Main Page|The Encyclopedia]]''' — the world of Yezur, its lands and peoples.
* '''[[Dictionary:Main Page|The Dictionary]]''' — the interlingual dictionary of Yezur's languages.
