=== Usage ===
Places a small '''🌐 On the map''' link at the top right of the page, beside the title, pointing to a location on the Yezur map at yezur.xyz — the page-level counterpart of the inline link templates ([[Template:Node|Node]], [[Template:Coordslink|Coordslink]], …). It renders through MediaWiki's page-status-indicator mechanism, so it works '''wherever it is placed''' in the wikitext; by convention, put it on the first line of the article.

By coordinates:
* <code><nowiki>{{On the map|12.34|56.78}}</nowiki></code> — centre the map there (zoom 8)
* <code><nowiki>{{On the map|12.34|56.78|11}}</nowiki></code> — same, explicit zoom

By map object:
* <code><nowiki>{{On the map|node=60117}}</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>{{On the map|way=123456}}</nowiki></code>
* <code><nowiki>{{On the map|relation=481363}}</nowiki></code>

; <code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code> : latitude, longitude, zoom (optional, default 8) — used when no object id is given
; <code>node</code> / <code>way</code> / <code>relation</code> : link to a map object instead of coordinates
; <code>label</code> : optional text replacing "On the map"

If the template appears more than once on a page, the '''last''' use wins (the indicator name is shared), so a hand-placed call overrides an infobox's automatic one.

'''Infoboxes add this automatically''': [[Template:Infobox continent]] emits it from <code>map_node</code>, and [[Template:Infobox polity]] from <code>map_relation</code> — no need to add it by hand on those pages.

Live demonstration — look at the top right of this very page: {{On the map|node=60117|label=On the map (demo)}}
