Template:Polecoord/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Polecoord. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Displays a geographic coordinate for a location in a polar region. Like {{coord}}, it produces an appropriate link, but is simpler to use, compensates for some limitations of GeoHack in these regions, and allows future adoption of alternative services specific to these regions.
