మూస:Infobox eruption
Appearance
This infobox is meant to be used on pages about volcanic eruptions and on the sections of articles about a volcano about an eruption, but not as the main template on the pages of the volcanoes themselves (for that, use {{Infobox mountain}}). The completely expanded form of the template is as follows:
{{Infobox eruption | name = | image = | image_size = | caption = | date = | time = | volcano = | type = | location = | coordinates = | VEI = | map = | map_size= | map_caption = | impact = }}
Field name | Input |
---|---|
name | Name of the eruption. The conventions for naming relatively modern eruptions is to use "[Year] eruption of [volcano]". See for instance 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. If the timing is incomplete (common for extremely old eruptions), use as specific a time period as you may in place of the year. Many eruptions have names given to them by the scientific community, if one exists, use it! |
image | Photo of the eruption. A painting or other representation may be used for eruptions preceding the invention of photography. Precede filename with "File:" but do not use [ ] brackets. |
image_size | Size of the photo; leaving this blank will cause it to default to 250px. |
caption | Caption for the photo. |
date | Date of eruption; should be as specific as allowable. |
time | Time of initial eruption; should be as specific as allowable. |
volcano | Name of the volcano where the eruption occurred. |
type | Type of eruption, see Types of volcanic eruptions for the different types. |
location | Location of the volcano, e.g. "Boulder Springs, Colorado" |
coordinates | Coordinates of the volcano. Use Template:Coord. |
VEI | Volcanic Explosivity Index, a measure of an eruption's strength similar to the Richter scale; the type of eruption can be inferred off its VEI, and this field also automatically adds the volcano to the respective "VEI-level volcanoes" category. |
map | Map of the eruption, if there is one. You can use a {{Location map}} template in place of a "hard" image map (use width = 250, with caption = ) |
map_size | Same as image_size, above. |
map_caption | Caption for the map. |
impact | What was the impact of the eruption? How many lives were lost? How much property damage? What was the impact of the eruption on the local and global landscape? Basically, why is the eruption notable? |
Here is an example usage:
1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens | |
---|---|
అగ్నిపర్వతం | Mount St. Helens |
తేదీ | May 18, 1980 |

This template can also be used inside an article, in a section dedicated to an important volcanic eruption. In these cases, the volcano, location, coordinates, and map should be left out, as they are redundant to the main article infobox (presumably Template:Infobox mountain). For instance:
1914 eruption of Sakurajima | |
---|---|
తేదీ | January 1914 |
Type | Peléan |
VEI (ఎక్స్ప్లోజివిటీ ఇండెక్సు | 4 |
తాకిడి | Pre-eruption earthquakes killed at least 35 people; caused an evacuation and significant changes to the local topology. |
