Wikivoyage:Park article template

It is not meant to be used for city parks, amusement parks and areas that do not fit the Project:What is an article? criteria.''

''To quickly insert a complete blank park template, copy the quick version into the edit box on the page you are editing. You can also just type in, and the template will be included when you save.''

''Text in italics below is editorial comment, with suggestions for what should go in each section. You should plan on ruthlessly eliminating if you copy this code to a new park article.]''

''The first section of the park article does not have a heading. This is a where you give a quick descriptive overview of the park. Be sure to include some context so readers know where and what they are reading about. Links to the region and country that the park is in can be useful here, too.''

''Also give a high-level description of the park and why people would want to visit (i.e. Yellowstone National Park was the world's first national park, created to protect an amazing array of geothermal features and a vast amount of wildlife). Keep the description here brief, as most information will be included in the Understand section.''
