Observer:{{{observer}}} Location:{{{location}}} Date of observation:{{{date}}} Observations made:{{{obs_type}}}
Visibility: {{{vis_o}}} Binocular type:{{{bino_t}}} Telescope type:{{{tel_t}}}

This template exists to enable the easy addition of an observation to an object article. Note that the object article template includes a copy of this so the first observation of an article doesn't need this template added.

[edit] Required Parameters

  • observer - the observer's name/username. The recommended practice is to send the name as a wikilink in the format [[username | realname]] where username is your CDSP login name. Realname is your real name if you wish to provide it, if not just put your username here too.
  • location - the location the observation was made from. The name of the city is adequate.
  • date - The date of the observation in UTC. See the article on time conventions for the appropriate format.
  • obs_type - the observations performed. This is indicated by giving the letters N, B and/or T. See the observations made article for more details on what the letters stand for.
  • vis_o - what you were able to see. This is again indicated by the letters N,B and/or T, or the letter X. Again see the observations made article for details on the letters.
  • bino_t - the type of binoculars used, i.e. 10x50. If no binocular observation was performed, put "None".
  • tel_t - the type of telescope used. Recommended practice is to put the telescope in wikilinks "[[]]". Check the telescopes page to see if your telescope is listed so you can link to it. If not listed feel free to create a page about your telescope. If no telescopic observation was made put "None".

[edit] Usage
