Usage

{{meetup graticule
| lat=37
| lon=-121
| date=2005-05-21
}}

Optional parameters:

| map=<map lat="37" lon="-121" date="2005-05-21" />
| graticule_name=London West
| graticule_link=London West, United Kingdom
| retro=1

This template is design for "meetup pages", pages with names that look like "2008-05-21 37 -121". For now, it contains a map, a category links. It may evolve to contain more useful information.

If the map argument is supplied, that wikitext is included directly in the template. Otherwise, a map is automagically generated, based on the lat, lon, and date parameters.

If graticule_link is not provided, graticule_name will be used as link. If neither of them is provided, {{{lat}}},{{{lon}}} will be used, as almost all graticule pages have that as a "redirection page".

The "retro" argument, when set to 1, excludes the meetup page from the Meetup on YYYY-MM-DD category and places it instead in Category:Retro meetup. This is to be used for retro expeditions such as the Origin geohash achievement.
