Parameters
Do not erase parameters that could logically apply now or in the future because you do not yet have data (such as financial results) or because the parameter does not apply today (such as defunct date), except the genre parameter, which pertains only to publishing companies, and the aum parameter, which applies only to financial services companies. You may erase a parameter if it can never logically be applicable. The intl parameter, for example, only applies to companies based outside the United States and can therefore be erased from articles about United States-based companies.
Note that the examples below are for demonstration purposes only and do not necessarily reflect actual data.
- name
- The name of the company, correctly reproducing punctuation and abbreviations or lack thereof.
- logo
- The company's current, primary wordmark or logo. Use the logo of the legal entity that is the subject of the article; the logo used may be different from the logo used on consumer products, particularly if the article is about a parent company or holding company.
For companies that use both a wordmark and a logo, upload a file that shows the two in combination if the combined form serves as the company's primary identity mark.
For a wordmark example, see Google; for a logo example, see Apple Inc.; for a combined logo and wordmark example see Altria.
Upload a wordmark/logo graphic using the organization logo upload form.
Note: Uploading trademarked corporate logos by other means or uploading corporate logos to Wikimedia Commons is likely to result in deletion of the logo.
Format: logo.png
- logo_size
- Optional display width of logo in pixels. If not specified, the size varies by user preferences.
- logo_alt
- Optional verbal description of logo for text-only browsers and visually impaired users.

Example:- Logo used from 1942 to 1966
- trading_name
- Trade name, doing business as, d/b/a or fictitious business name under which a company presents itself to the public. This parameter is used only when the company has a legally registered trade name that is different from the company's full, legal name.
Example:- "Cellco Partnership" is the full, legal name of the company that trades as "Verizon Wireless". This template's name parameter, therefore would be set as Cellco Partnership, while its trading_name parameter would be set as Verizon Wireless.
- native_name
- The full, legal non-English name of the company as it appears in the company's home country language, reproducing any punctuation or abbreviations. For Chinese and Korean names' syntax, see the "Embedding" section below.
Examples:- ETA SA Manufacture Horlogère Suisse
- Нефтяна́я Компа́ния Ю́КОС
- romanized_name
- Native name in Latin script. Use only if the company is based in a non-English speaking country and it has no official rendering of its native name in Latin script. If such a rendering exists, assign it to native_name and omit this parameter.
- former_name
- (or former_names)
- type
- Type of company, wikilinked where possible. To list percentages owned of a private company, use the ownership parameter (see below).
Examples:- [[Public company|Public]]
- [[Privately held company|Private]]
- traded_as
- If applicable, the stock exchange/exchanges where the company is traded, each followed by their stock ticker symbol/symbols for the company (use stock ticker templates where possible; see Category:Ticker symbol templates). Information about the company's status as a component of a major index can also be added. If more than one exchange or symbol is involved, use {{ublist}} to format them.
Examples:- {{NYSE|DLB}}
- {{ublist |{{NASDAQ|MSFT}} |{{SEHK|4338}} |[[Dow Jones Industrial Average]] component |[[NASDAQ-100]] component |[[S&P 500]] component}}

Examples:- Appliance manufacturing
- {{ublist |Electronics design |Electronics distribution |Entertainment}}
- genre
1. Used for media or publishing companies - Genres of works published by the company, listed alphabetically and wikilinked where possible. If publishing is the company's primary activity, consider using {{Infobox publisher}} rather than this template.
If more than one entry is required here, use {{ublist}} to format the list.
Examples:- [[Fiction]]

- 2. The field or subset of the industry the company occupies, e.g. Industry is restaurants, the genre is fast food
- fate[lower-alpha 1]

Examples:- [[Apple, Inc.]]
- {{ublist |[[The People's Corporation of Judea]] |[[Splitters, Inc.]]}}
- founded
- Location and date of the company's foundation / establishment. For the location, use a format such as [[City, State or Province]], Country or [[City]], Country (i.e. link only the location's most specific element, per WP:OVERLINK); use {{start date}} for the date. Per WP:ICON, do not include flag icons; a company's location, ownership and liability, for instance, may exist in or across more than one country/region/etc.
Examples:- [[Teaneck, New Jersey]], United States ({{start date|1975|04|27}})
- [[Malmö]], Sweden ({{start date|1925|12|02}})
- founder

| hq_location_country = Germany
- | hq_location_city = [[Redmond, Washington]]
- coordinates
- [Use {{coord}}?]
- num_locations

- The year associated with the data presented by num_location. Only appears (as a parenthesis appended to num_locations) if/when num_locations also supplied.

- (or areas_served) Geographic area or areas in which the company does business. Use the largest appropriate geographic area or areas (i.e. if, for instance, a company trades in nearly every province in Canada, use e.g. | area_served = Most of Canada rather than listing every province). As above, if more than one entry is required, use {{ublist}} to present them alphabetically; and avoid wikilinking any area or location name already linked in previous parameters.

If a founder is already listed in thefounderparameter, do not list them again here as a founder; if the founder still holds an executive job with the company, you may however list them along with their job title (Chairman, President, etc.)
Generally list prominent, current executives within the company holding key positions such as chairman, chief executive officer, president, VP of design, etc., but do not list roles below chief officer level if they are not notable. Do include top executives even not individually notable, but do not wikilink them.
Use popular names rather than formal names if the key figure has an existing Wikipedia article.
It may be appropriate to add, at the end, past executives who played an especially prominent role in the company's history.

Financial results parameters
The revenue, operating_income, net_income, aum, assets and equity are used to record a company's financial information.
Wikilink the first occurrence of the currency unit. This is usually in the |revenue= parameter.
Each parameter entry should include three elements: an indicator icon, the results of the most recent fiscal year and the results of the previous fiscal year.
Example:{{ubl|{{increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}
Indicator icons
You may include an indicator icon to indicate the change compared to the previous fiscal year; to avoid confusion, place the indicator before the number. Please note that this is intended to depict the direction of change compared to the previous year, not the actual numerical change in value.
Examples:{{ubl|{{increase}} US$128,064,032 (2011)|US$111,586,447 (2010)}}{{ubl|{{steady}} US$128,000,000 (2011)|US$128,000,000 (2010)}}{{ubl|{{decrease}} US$111,586,447 (2011)|US$128,064,032 (2010)}}
- Which display as:
Consistent notation
There are different ways to record financial results that are in the millions or billions of dollars. Pick one and use it consistently in all parameters. If using billions, always wikilink the first occurrence as [[1,000,000,000|billion]]s, since "billion" has more than one meaning. Use to prevent wrapping between elements of the numbers, per WP:Manual of Style (dates and numbers).
Do not express results as a decimal such as {{increase}} US$.963 billion (2010). Instead choose a notation that will allow you to express all results for the period in whole numbers.
In this example use {{increase}} US$963 million (2010) or {{increase}} US$963,000,000 (2010) and apply your choice to all the financial results consistently.
