Use as a child template

This infobox may be used to create a genre-specific section within {{infobox person}}, for cases where a person may be notable in more than one field. To do so, call the template as follows:

{{ infobox person
| name = 
| image           = 
| caption         = 
| birth_name      = 
| birth_date      = 
| birth_place     = 
| module          =
{{ <SUB-TEMPLATE NAME>|child=yes
| param-1     = 
| param-2     = 
| param-3     = 
| param-4     = 
}}
}}

Microformat

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the person's details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book or database. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

Sub-templates

Date-of-birth ("bday") information will only be included in the microformat if {{birth date}}, or {{birth date and age}} are used in the infobox. (Do not use these if the date is before 1583).

To include a URL, use {{URL}}.

Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
