Use as a child template
This infobox may be used to create a genre-specific section within {{Infobox person}} (or similar biographical infobox templates) for cases where a person may be notable in more than one field; a generic example is shown below. For guidance on usage, see Wikipedia:Infobox modules. Also see the Template:Infobox documentation which explains embedding and subboxes.
{{Infobox person
| name =
| image =
| caption =
| birth_date =
| birth_place =
| <nowiki><!--</nowiki> ''[[et cetera|etc.]]'' <nowiki>--></nowiki>
| module =
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{{1|{{{template|<includeonly>{{BASEPAGENAME}}</includeonly><noinclude>EMBEDDED TEMPLATE NAME</noinclude>}}}}}} | {{#if:{{{parameter|}}} | {{{parameter}}}=yes | child=yes <nowiki><!--</nowiki> ''or'' embed=yes ''or'' subbox=yes <nowiki>--></nowiki>}}
| {{{2|{{{example_parameter1|parameter-1}}}}}} =
| {{{3|{{{example_parameter2|parameter-2}}}}}} =
| {{{4|{{{example_parameter3|parameter-3}}}}}} =
| {{{5|{{{example_parameter4|parameter-4}}}}}} =
| <nowiki><!--</nowiki> ''etc.'' <nowiki>--></nowiki>
}}
}}
The template may also be used as a subsection of {{Infobox racing driver}} as follows:
{{Infobox racing driver
| image =
| caption =
| nationality = <!-- use only when necessary per [[WP:INFONAT]] -->
| birth_name =
| birth_date =
| birth_place =
| titles =
| title years =
| record template1 =
{{Infobox Le Mans driver|child=yes
| Years =

}}
}}
Microformat
The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book or database. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Sub-templates
Date-of-birth ("bday") information will only be included in the microformat if {{birth date}}, or {{birth date and age}} are used in the infobox. (Do not use these if the date is before 1583). Be cautious about using these if the person is still living, per WP:DOB.
To include a URL, use {{URL}}.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
