Usage
This template is part of a group of templates that are used to display information about a specific star. The list should always have {{Starbox begin}} as the first in the list, while the list should have {{Starbox end}} as the last in the list. This particular template can be used as follows:
{{Starbox image
| image = <!--image location, formatted as "[[File:Example.jpg|250px]]"-->
| caption = <!--caption (optional)-->
| credit = <!--credit for image if the image's use requires them (optional)-->
}}
If you are overlaying a mark on a constellation map, the {{Location mark}} template is recommended for consistent positioning. For example:
{{Starbox image
| image=
{{Location mark
| image=Example constellation map.svg
| float=center | width=250 | position=right
| mark=Red circle.svg | mark_width=10 | mark_link=ι Exa
| x%=87.9 | y%=52.0
}}
| caption=Location of ι Example (circled)
}}
The following templates are used together and are usually placed in the order listed below.
- {{Starbox begin}}
- {{Starbox image}}
- {{Starbox observe}}
- {{Starbox observe 2s}}
