Parameters edit

This template takes all parameters available in {{Infobox sportsperson}}. For a complete list, see here. For commonly-used generic plus climber-specific parameters, see below:

Parameter Description
headercolor To change the default color of headers, indicate a color name (e.g., lightblue or orange) or a hex triplet (e.g., #2468A0). To determine the hex triplet of a color, see List of colors; or go to List of colors#Colors by shade, click on the article associated with the desired color, and look up the hex triplet.
Personal information
name The name of the subject.
image An image of the subject. Type the name of the image file without adding File: before it or wikilinking it. If no image is available yet, do not use an image placeholder.
image_size The image size. Only use this parameter if the image is less than 220 pixels in width. If so, than indicate the image's respective width in pixels, like this: image_size=200px.
alt Alt text for the image displayed.
caption A caption for the image displayed.
nickname Nickname of the subject.
nationality The subject's nationality. Use only when necessary per WP:INFONAT. Do not use a flag template.
birth_date The subject's birth date. If still alive, use {{birth date and age|year|month|day}}, otherwise use {{birth date|yyyy|mm|dd}}.
birth_place The subject's place of birth. Do not use a flag template.
death_date The subject's death date, if applicable. Use {{death date and age|death year|death month|death day|birth year|birth month|birth day}}.
death_place The subject's place of death, if applicable. Do not use a flag template.
spouse
education Education, e.g. degree, institution and graduation year, if relevant.
occupation Occupation(s) as given in the lead.
height The subject's height, if relevant, measured in centimetres (or metres) when using the metric system or in feet and inches when using the imperial system. Use XXX cm, X.XX m, or X ft Y in. The infobox will automatically display the appropriate conversion within parentheses.
  • To satisfy international variations of English, if the subject is American or British (or primarily notable in English for playing on an American or British team, or for participating in American or British sports) enter the height in feet (ft) and inches (in), otherwise enter the height in centimetres (cm).
    | height = 6 ft 3 in → 6 ft 3 in (191 cm)
    | height = 191 cm → 191 cm (6 ft 3 in)
  • The height parameter also accepts conversions done via the {{Convert}} template.
    | height = {{convert|6|ft|3|in|cm|abbr=on}} → 6 ft 3 in (191 cm)
    | height = {{convert|191|cm|ftin|abbr=on}} → 191 cm (6 ft 3 in)
  • If the subject's height stated in a source is the converted measurement, ensure that this measurement is accurately stated. For example, if a source states 192 centimetres but the infobox should display feet and inches first:
    • Incorrect usage, does not display (192 cm):
    | height = 6 ft 4 in → 6 ft 4 in (193 cm)
    • Correct usage, displays (192 cm):
    | height = 6 ft 3.6 in → 6 ft 3.6 in (192 cm)
    | height = 6 ft 4 in (192 cm) → 6 ft 4 in (192 cm)
    | height = {{convert|192|cm|ftin|abbr=on|order=flip}} → 6 ft 4 in (192 cm)
  • If the subject has not reached their adult height, add the year when the height was measured, in parentheses (round brackets) after the height.
  • Provide a reference for the information after the year, in parentheses, indicating in the footnote both the source and the original units, like this: "[source of information] (original measurement in feet and inches)"; see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Unit conversions.
weight The subject's weight, if relevant, measured in kilograms when using the metric system, in pounds when using the imperial system, or in stone and pounds in the United Kingdom. Use X kg, X lb, or X st Y lb. The infobox will automatically display the appropriate conversion within parentheses.
  • If the subject is American (or primarily notable in English for playing for an American team, or for participating in U.S. sports), enter the weight in pounds (lb), otherwise enter the weight in kilograms (kg).
    | weight = 120 lb → 120 lb (54 kg)
    | weight = 60 kg → 60 kg (132 lb)
  • The weight parameter also accepts conversions done via the {{Convert}} template.
    | weight = {{convert|120|lb|kg|abbr=on}} → 120 lb (54 kg)
    | weight = {{convert|60|kg|lb|0|abbr=on}} → 60 kg (132 lb)
    • When using the convert template for kilogram-to-pound conversions, the zero (highlighted) is necessary for correct rounding. Otherwise, the example above would display as "60 kg (130 lb)".
  • If the subject's weight stated in a source is the converted measurement, ensure that this measurement is accurately stated. For example, if a source states 125 pounds but the infobox should display kilograms first:
    • Incorrect usage, does not display (125 lb):
    | height = 57 kg → 57 kg (126 lb)
    • Correct usage, displays (125 lb):
    | height = 56.7 kg → 56.7 kg (125 lb)
    | height = 57 kg (125 lb) → 57 kg (125 lb)
    | height = {{convert|125|lb|kg|abbr=on|order=flip}} → 57 kg (125 lb)
  • After the weight, add the year when the weight was measured, in parentheses. Please supply a reference in the same manner as for the subject's height.
website Official website only. Unofficial websites should be placed under ==External links== in the body of the article. Use {{URL}} as in {{URL|examplesite.com|ExampleSite.com}}. Do not include the www. part unless the server is misconfigured and requires it. Use camel case capitalization to make multiword domain names easier to read.
Climbing career
typeofclimber The specialty of the climber. For example, mountaineering, alpine climbing, ice climbing, traditional climbing, sport climbing, competition climbing, free solo climbing, or bouldering. If the climber has more than one specialty, use a bulleted list (e.g. '{{flatlist|')
highestgrade Highest tecnhcial grade the climber has successfully achieved. This parameter is not displayed if highestredpoint, highestonsight, or highestboulder is used.
highestredpoint Highest redpoint the climber has successfully achieved. If this parameter is used, highestgrade will not be displayed. Use the {{climbing grade}} template for French sport grades or American YDS grades.
highestonsight Highest on-sight the climber has successfully achieved. If this parameter is used, highestgrade will not be displayed. If it was a flash, add '(flash)' after the grade. Use the {{climbing grade}} template for French sport grades or American YDS grades.
highestboulder Highest boulder problem the climber has successfully achieved. If this parameter is used, highestgrade will not be displayed. Use the {{boulder grade}} template for Font grades or V-grades.
knownfor Any particular activities, whether climbing or not, for which the person is noted (e.g. first to climb a particular technical grade, most IFSC climbing medals, winner of the Piolet d'Or, or inventor of climbing gear or technique).
firstascents List of important first ascents.
namedroutes Routes the climber has named.
majorascents The most important of the climbers ascents, whether a first ascent or not.
