syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}


== Usage ==

To use the template, copy the wikitext below, and paste it in the ''Veneration'' section of the article’s main page. If the article is not divided into sections, it should be placed on top. Then, fill out the data fields. "Name" is the only required parameter, due to the highly variable information reflected in the articles. You may omit any other unused fields, but try to fill in as many as possible, even if the information is very general.

Note that '''this template is for saints' articles that feature multiple saints''' as the subject, for example, [[Martyrs of Córdoba]], or [[Martyrs of Japan]], where an infobox designed for one person will not fit. Almost invariably, articles that demand such an infobox are for groups of martyrs, canonized simultaneously.

This infobox could also be appropriate for groups of saints not necessarily bound by martyrdom, such as [[Fourteen Holy Helpers]].

===Required parameters===

: '''name''' The name under which the group or martyrs is venerated or best known. This should usually be the same as the article name.

=== Optional parameters===
: '''image''' An icon, image of a painting, etc. Use the name of the image file only. Do not include "Image:"
: '''image_size''' Width of the image. Use appropriate units, e.g. 150px for 150 pixels. If this parameter is omitted, 250px will be used.
: '''caption''' Caption for image, if necessary.
: '''birth_date''' Era of births. Will probably be highly approximate, i.e., ''fifth century''.
: '''birth_place''' Place or places of birth. Most martyr groups have a wide place of birth in common (i.e., "[[Japan]]", "[[Antioch]]"); if this is not the case, exclude the field.
: '''death_date''' Date or dates of death. Can be approximate; some groups of martyrs will have died on the same day, others over the course of several years.
: '''death_place''' Place of death. May be a wide area, as in the case of [[Eighty-five martyrs of England and Wales]], or may be more precise, such as in [[Martyrs of Compiègne]].
: '''martyred_by''' The individual or party that effected the martyrdom.
: '''means_of_martyrdom''' How the martyrs were put to death; e.g., [[crucifixion]], [[decapitation]]
: '''venerated_in''' Denomination(s) where the saints are recognized.
: '''beatified_date''' Date of beatification, if applicable.
: '''beatified_place''' Place where beatification was announced, if applicable.
: '''beatified_by''' Authority for beatification. In Catholicism, this will be the Pope of the time.
: '''canonized_label''' Label for the canonization section; defaults to "Canonized"
: '''canonized_date''' Date of canonization, if applicable.
: '''canonized_place''' Place where canonization/glorification was solemnly performed.
: '''canonized_by''' Authority for canonization. In Catholicism this will be the Pope of the time; in Orthodoxy is usually a synod.
: '''major_shrine''' Perhaps the site of the saints' relics or martyrdom.
: '''feast_day''' Saints' group feast day. Parameter is optional, as there may or may not be a group feast day.
: '''attributes''' Standard iconographic elements. Usually pontifical or episcopal insignia, tools of martyrdom, and so forth. These elements are not common for large groups of saints.
: '''patronage''' People, places, diseases...
: '''notable_members''' Allows easy linking to specific articles of individuals in the group of martyrs that may have been notable enough to merit individual articles.
