- "nebula"
- "dark"
- "diffuse"
- "emission"
- "reflection"
- "planetary"
- "protoplanetary"
- "plerion"
- "interstellar cloud"
- "high velocity cloud"
- "intermediate velocity cloud"
- "low velocity cloud"
- "supershell"
- "molecular cloud"
- "infrared cirrus"
- "Bok globule"
- "giant molecular cloud"
- "molecular cloud complex"
- "supernova remnant"
type2 (optional) - if the type is unsupported, place it here; can also be used to specify an alternate type
name – the name of the nebula.
image (optional) – an image, specified in the form imagename.ext without specifying "FILE:" and without the [[ brackets ]]
ie.) sampleimage.jpg
image_scale (optional) – Relative image size; e.g. 1.5 for 50% larger than reader's default
alt (optional) – Alternative text for images; cf. MOS:ALT
caption (optional) – a caption for the image
credit (optional) – a credit for the image
subtype (optional) - the subtype of this type of nebula; can also be used to specify an alternate type
class (optional) - the class of the subtype of nebula
epoch – the epoch when the coordinate measurements were taken
NOTE This parameter requires that ra , dec , epoch all be set
ra – the right ascension of the nebula; please use {{RA}} or {{Deg2HMS}} filling in hours, minutes, seconds
NOTE This parameter requires that ra , dec , epoch all be set
dec – the declination of the nebula; please use {{DEC}} filling in ±degrees, minutes, seconds
NOTE This parameter requires that ra , dec , epoch all be set
dist_ly – the distance of the nebula, in light years
NOTE This parameter is incompatible with dist_z
dist_pc – the distance of the nebula, in parsecs
NOTE This parameter is incompatible with dist_z
dist_z - the distance of the nebula, in dimensionless redshift
NOTE This parameter is incompatible with dist_pc and dist_ly
appmag_v (optional) – the apparent magnitude of the nebula
appdia (optional) - the apparent diameter of the nebula, in degrees,minutes,seconds,milliseconds of arc
size_v – the apparent dimensions of the nebula
constellation – the constellation containing the nebula. Should be wikilinked.
radius_ly (optional) – the radius of the nebula, in light years
radius_pc (optional) – the radius of the nebula, in parsecs
dimensions (optional) - the real dimensions of the nebula if the radius isn't sufficient to describe it
absmag_v (optional) – the absolute magnitude of the nebula
notes (optional) - notes
names (optional) – any other names, catalogue designations, etc.
