Skantlyn:Infobox Ranneves/doc

Purpose

This template provides a standardized infobox for the 88 IAU recognized constellations; the modern constellations used in modern-day science.

Usage

{{Infobox Ranneves

                           ( apparent magnitude < 3 ) -->
| numbernearbystars = <!-- Number of stars that are closer than 10pc
                           ( distance < 10 parsecs ) -->
| brighteststarname = <!-- the star with the brightest apparent magnitude
                           ( usually this would be "α genitive" ) -->

Parameters

• name – (Mandatory) — The name of the constellation, as defined by the IAU
• abbreviation – (Mandatory) — The three letter IAU abbreviation for the constellation
• genitive – (Mandatory) — The genetive form of the constellation's name used in the construction of star names in Bayer designations and Flamsteed designations
• pronounce – (Optional) — The pronunciation of the constellation's name, and the genitive form. Please use the IPA and optionally respelling.

|pronounce=
;Name
* {{IPAc-en|IPA}} {{respell|respelling}}
;Genitive
* {{IPAc-en|IPA}} {{respell|respelling}}

• symbolism – (Optional) — the meaning of the constellation

ie. Draco, is "the dragon", so fill in as the dragon

• RA and dec -- coordinates of the constellation
  • RA – (Mandatory) — right ascension, use the {{RA}} or {{Deg2HMS}} template to fill in this parameter

    the right ascension of the lower and upper extremes of the constellation

  • dec – (Mandatory) — declination, use the {{DEC}} template to fill in this parameter

    the declination of the lower and upper extremes of the constellation

• liststyle – (Optional) — style for included lists; default is plain, hlist for horizontal and flatlist for bulleted.
