Usage

{{Infobox tectonic plate| name           = | image          = | image_size     = | image_alt      = | caption        = | type           = | coordinates    = <!-- {{Coord|LAT|LON}} -->| area           = | move_direction = | move_speed     = | geo_features   = }}

Parameters

name: name of tectonic plate, defaults to current page name
image: map image of tectonic plate
image_size: The image width in pixels. If specified, the maximum width is 280px. If not specified, the image uses frameless with upright=1.25 which displays it at approximately 125% of the user's default thumbnail size (for most users the image will display at 280px; for logged-in users who have changed the setting at Special:Preferences the displayed image could range from 150px to 500px). See also: Module:InfoboxImage, WP:AUTOSIZE, WP:EIS, WP:IMGSIZE, and MOS:IMGSIZE.
image_alt: see WP:ALT
caption: image caption
type: type (major, minor, historical)
coordinates: use {{Coord}}
area: approximate area in sq. km
move_direction: predominate direction of movement relative to African plate
move_speed: movement speed relative to African plate
geo_features: notable geographical features, such as continents, ocean basins, etc.
