Template:ElementUsage/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:ElementUsage.
It contains usage information, categories and other content or metadata that is not part of the original template.

This template provides a visual representation of the OpenStreetMap elements which are suitable for use with a given feature, linking each icon to a page providing further details of that element.

Where no language is specified, each element icon hyperlinks to the corresponding English-language description page (Node, Way, Area, Relation). Where a language is specified, each icon links to the first available of: local Node (e.g. FR:Node) local Elements (e.g. ES:Elements) with a suitable anchor, or the appropriate English language page.
