Parameters
- name
- name of tectonic plate, defaults to current page name
- image
- map image of tectonic plate
- image_size
- The image width in pixels. If specified, the maximum width is 280px. If not specified, the image uses frameless with upright=1.25 which displays it at approximately 125% of the user's default thumbnail size (for most users the image will display at 280px; for logged-in users who have changed the setting at Special:Preferences the displayed image could range from 150px to 500px). See also: Module:InfoboxImage, WP:AUTOSIZE, WP:EIS, WP:IMGSIZE, and MOS:IMGSIZE.
- image_alt
- see WP:ALT
- caption
- image caption
- type
- type (major, minor, historical)
- coordinates
- use {{Coord}}
- area
- approximate area in sq. km
- move_direction
- predominate direction of movement relative to African plate
- move_speed
- movement speed relative to African plate
- geo_features
- notable geographical features, such as continents, ocean basins, etc.
