:::Thanks. Yes, I spent hours, more than four, just to find the question. So that's fine now. But I don't know what is the point of WikidataCoord when it does the same think as coord? PS only four of your answers are printed!

::

:::The other question is why is the internal gubbins of infobox settlement ignoring the parameters from coord / wikidatacoord and instead make up stupid from here and there wikidata – region is not put in third- and fourth-order so they're insisting (wrongly) from a higher order one; and type:city is ludicrously, completely wrong, while dim: is ignored even though it's true.

:::This module was created in May 2016; before support for {{para|qid}} was added to [[Module:Coordinates]] in November 2018.

:::What do you mean by: {{tq|PS only four of your answers are printed!}}

:::

:::I am not familiar with {{tlx|Infobox settlement}}, but a cursory glance through the template's wikitext doesn't clearly show that that template gets anything from wikidata. Clearly, it gets data from [[Module:ISO 3166]] which also does not appear to get anything from wikidata. To resolve issues with {{tnull|Infobox settlement}}, your next stop is [[Template talk:Infobox settlement]]. Write a simple question; do not obfuscate with unnecessary detail as you did here.
