{{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}}

== 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 [[:Template:WPBiography]] on the talkpage. If no image is available yet, [[Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Image placeholders|do not use an image placeholder]].
|-
| '''image_size'''<br /> (''imagesize'')
| 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. This parameter should not normally need to be set.
|-
| '''alt'''
| Alt text for image, for visually impaired readers. One word (such as "photograph") is rarely sufficient. See [[WP:ALT]].

| 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}}.
|-
| '''birth_place'''
| Place of birth: city, administrative region, sovereign state. 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, residence, or death|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''baptised'''
| Date of baptism: '''Only''' for use when birth date is not known (e.g. for [[Beethoven]]). Will not display if a birth date is entered. Do not use subtemplates.

|-
| '''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, residence, 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}}.
|-
| '''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, residence, 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.
|-
| '''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, residence, or death|Do not use a flag template]].
|-
| '''resting_place'''

|- 
| '''other_names'''

| 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 included either parameter for non-graduates, but article talk page consensus may conclude otherwise, as at [[Bill Gates]].
