	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.		Places a small '''🌐 On the map''' link at the top right of the page, beside the title — for subjects that resolve to '''a spot on the map''' (cities, sites, locations; ''not'' continents or countries, which cannot be reduced to a single point). The link opens the Yezur map with '''a marker dropped''' at the given coordinates. 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\|38.09735\|-70.67385}}</nowiki></code> — drop a marker there (zoom 8)
	* <code><nowiki>{{On the map\|12.34\|56.78}}</nowiki></code> — ~~centre the map~~ there (zoom 8)		* <code><nowiki>{{On the map\|38.09735\|-70.67385\|13}}</nowiki></code> — same, explicit zoom
	* <code><nowiki>{{On the map\|12.34\|56.78\|11}}</nowiki></code> — same, explicit zoom

	By map object:		For a line or area feature, link its map-object page instead of dropping a marker:
	* <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><nowiki>{{On the map\|node=60111}}</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>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code> : latitude, longitude, zoom (optional, default 8)
	; <code>node</code> / <code>way</code> / <code>relation</code> : link to a map object instead of ~~coordinates~~		; <code>node</code> / <code>way</code> / <code>relation</code> : link a map object's page instead of dropping a marker
	; <code>label</code> : optional text replacing "On the map"		; <code>label</code> : optional text replacing "On the map"

=== 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.
