{{tl|Infobox person}} may be used to summarize information about a particular person, usually at the top of an article.

== Redirects and calls ==
At least {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Templates calling Infobox person}} other [[:Category:Templates calling Infobox person|templates call this one]] and [{{fullurl:Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Infobox_person|namespace=10&hidetrans=1&hidelinks=1}} many templates redirect here].

== Modules ==
The following templates are suitable for use as a "module" in this one:
* Templates in [[:Category:Biographical templates usable as a module]]
* {{tl|Listen}}
* {{tl|Infobox Chinese}}

== Usage ==
The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article and then filling in the desired fields. Any parameters left blank or omitted will not be displayed.

== Parameters ==
Do not use all these parameters for any one person. The list is long to cover a wide range of people. Only use those parameters that convey essential or notable information about the subject, and ensure that that information is sourced in the article or (if present only in the infobox) in the infobox itself. Any parameters left blank or omitted will not be displayed. If a data field has more than one parameter name which can be used, the preferred name is listed first in '''bold''' print.

{| class="wikitable"
! style="text-align: left" | Parameter
! style="text-align: left" | Explanation
|-
| '''honorific_prefix'''
| To appear on the line above the person's name
|-
| '''name'''
| Common name of person (defaults to article name if left blank; provide '''birth_name''' (below) if different from '''name'''). If middle initials are specified (or implied) by the lead of the article, and are not specified separately in the '''birth_name''' field, include them here.
|-
| '''honorific_suffix'''
| To appear on the line below the person's name
|-
| '''image'''
| Image name: abc.jpg, xpz.png, 123.gif, etc. If an image is desired but not available, one may add "yes" to the "needs-photo" section of the {{tl|WikiProject Biography}} template on the talkpage. If no image is available yet, [[Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Image placeholders|do not use an image placeholder]].
|-
| '''image_upright''' || Scales the image thumbnail from its default size by the given factor. Values less than 1 scale the image down (0.9 = 90%) and values greater than 1 scale the image up (1.15 = 115%).
|-
| '''image_size'''<br /> (''imagesize'')
| DEPRECATED/DISCOURAGED. Size to display image: ''200px'' (set width), ''x300px'' (set height), or ''200x300px'' (max width & max height). This defaults to ''frameless'' (default is 220px, but logged in users can change this by clicking on "my preferences" and adjusting thumbnail size) if empty or omitted. Use of this parameter is discouraged as per [[WP:IMGSIZE]]. Use image_upright instead.
|-
| '''alt'''
| Alt text for image, for visually impaired readers. One word (such as "photograph") is rarely sufficient. See [[WP:ALT]].
|-
| '''caption'''
| Caption for image, if needed. Try to include date of photo and the photographer.
|-
| '''native_name'''
| The person's name in their own language, if different.
|-
| '''native_name_lang'''
| [[ISO 639-1]] code, e.g., "fr" for French. If more than one, use {{tl|lang}} in {{para|native_name}} instead.
|-
| '''pronunciation'''
| Details of how to pronounce the individual's native name. 
|-
| '''birth_name'''
| Name at birth; only use if different from '''name'''.
|-
| '''birth_date'''
| Date of birth: {{tl|birth date and age}} (if living) or {{tl|birth date}} (if dead). See [[Template:Birth date and age/doc]] for details on usage. If only a year of birth is known, or age as of a certain date, consider using {{tl|birth year and age}} or {{tl|birth based on age as of date}}. For living people supply only the year unless the exact date is already widely published, as per [[WP:DOB]]. Treat such cases as if only the year is known, so use {{tl|birth year and age}} or a similar option. The templates mentioned in this paragraph emit metadata indicating the date is in the Gregorian calendar; if the date is in the Julian calendar, do not use these templates, just write the date.
|-
| '''birth_place'''
| Place of birth: city, administrative region, country. Use the name of the birthplace at the time of birth, e.g.: Saigon (prior to 1976), Ho Chi Minh City (post 1976). [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Do not use flags to indicate locations of birth.2C residence.2C or death|Do not use a flag template]]. Per [[WP:INFOBOXPURPOSE]], it is preferred to omit unnecessary or redundant info. For example, it is not necessary to state: "[[New York City]], [[New York (state)|New York]], [[United States]]" when "[[New York City]], U.S." carries exactly the same information for far fewer characters. Countries should generally not be linked per [[WP:OVERLINK]].
|-
| '''baptised'''
| Date of baptism: '''Only''' for use when birth date is not known (e.g., for [[Ludwig van Beethoven]]). Will not display if a birth date is entered. Do not use subtemplates.
|-
| '''disappeared_date'''
| (For missing people) Date of disappearance: {{tl|disappeared date and age}} (if birth date is known) or {{tl|disappeared date}} (if birth date unknown).
|-
| '''disappeared_place'''
| (For missing people) Place of disappearance: city, administrative region, sovereign state. [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Do not use flags to indicate locations of birth.2C residence.2C or death|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''disappeared_status'''
| (For missing people) Current status for the person, e.g., if the person is still regarded as missing (using {{tl|missing for}} to calculate the time since disappearance), or if the person has been [[declared death in absentia|declared dead ''in absentia'']], with a date for such a ruling.
|-
| '''death_date'''
| Date of death: {{tl|death date and age}} (if birth date is known) or {{tl|death date}} (if birth date unknown). See [[Template:Death date/doc]] for details on usage. If exact dates are unknown, consider using {{tl|death year and age}}. The templates mentioned in this paragraph emit metadata indicating the date is in the Gregorian calendar; if the date is in the Julian calendar, do not use these templates, just write the date.
|-
| '''death_place'''
| Place of death: city, administrative region, sovereign state. Note: [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Do not use flags to indicate locations of birth.2C residence.2C or death|Do not use a flag template]]. Use the name of the deathplace at the time of death, e.g.: Saigon (prior to 1976), Ho Chi Minh City (post 1976)
|-
| '''death_cause'''
| Cause of death. Should be clearly defined and sourced.
|-
| '''body_discovered'''
| Place where the body was discovered (if different from place of death). [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Do not use flags to indicate locations of birth.2C residence.2C or death|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''resting_place'''
| Location of burial, ash-scattering, etc. If no location, leave blank. [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Do not use flags to indicate locations of birth.2C residence.2C or death|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''resting_place_coordinates'''
| Coordinates for location of burial, ash-scattering etc. Use {{tl|coord}} template.
|-
| '''burial_place'''
| Place of burial, alternative to {{para|resting_place}} which displays the label '''Burial place'''.
|-
| '''burial_coordinates'''
| Coordinates for place of burial, to accompany {{para|burial_place}}. Use {{tl|coord}} template.
|-
| '''monuments'''
| Significant monuments erected, buildings named, etc., in honour of the subject. If many, link to an appropriate section of the article instead.
|-
| '''residence'''
| Location(s) where the person notably resides/resided, if different from birthplace. [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Avoid flag icons in infoboxes|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''nationality'''
| May be used instead of citizenship (below) or vice versa in cases where any confusion could result. Should only be used {{em|with}} citizenship when they somehow differ. Do not link if a commonly known nationality. [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Biographical use|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''other_names'''
| Other notable names for the person, if different from '''name''' and '''birth_name'''.
|-
| '''citizenship'''
| Country of legal citizenship, if different from nationality. Rarely needed. ''See usage notes for nationality above.'' Should only be used if citizenship cannot be inferred from the birthplace; note that many countries do not automatically grant citizenship to people born within their borders. Do not link if a commonly known country. [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Icons#Avoid flag icons in infoboxes|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''education'''
| Education, e.g., degree, institution and graduation year, if relevant. If very little information is available or relevant, the {{para|alma_mater}} parameter may be more appropriate.
|-
| '''alma_mater'''
| ''[[Alma mater]]''. This parameter is a more concise alternative to {{para|education}}, and will often consist of the linked name of the last-attended higher education institution. It is usually not relevant to include either parameter for non-graduates, but article talk page consensus may conclude otherwise, as perhaps at [[Bill Gates]].
|-
| '''occupation'''
| Occupation(s) as given in the lead. Please observe sentence case and capitalise only the first letter of the first item; e.g.:
{{Flatlist|
* Musician
* actor
* singer-songwriter
}}
|-
| '''years_active'''
| Date range in years during which the subject was active in their principal occupation(s) and/or other activity for which they are notable. Use the format <code>1950–2000</code>, or <code>1970–present</code> if still active (note the use of an [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style#En dashes|en dash]], not hyphen). If no dates of birth and/or death are known for the subject, only a ''[[floruit]]'' date range, as is common with ancient subjects, this parameter can be used for it. If approximate (''[[circa]]'') dates are known for either or both, put them in the <code>birth_date</code> and <code>death_date</code> parameters.
|-
| '''era'''
| Era in which the person lived and worked; less specific than {{Para|years_active}}. e.g., "Medieval".
|-
| '''employer'''
| Employer(s), if relevant.
|-
| '''organization'''
| Non-employing organization(s), if relevant.
|-
| '''agent'''

| A brief description of why the person is notable.
|-
| '''notable_works'''
| Title(s) of notable work(s) (publications, compositions, sculptures, films, etc.) by the subject, if any; produces label "'''Notable work'''". May be overridden by {{para|credits}}, which produces label "'''Notable credit(s)'''"; or by {{para|works}}, which produces label "'''Works'''". "Credits" and "Notable work" are intended to be short in-line lists; "Works" is intended to link to a list article for a larger body of work, not all of which may be individually notable.
