The infobox has been extensively customised for Australia and includes automation that results in some parameters being redundant to other parameters. For example, if population density (in the {{para|density}} parameter) is not specified, this will be automatically generated based on the {{para|pop}} and {{para|area}} parameters. It is therefore important to read parameter descriptions thoroughly, to avoid unnecessarily providing redundant or incorrect information.

For infoboxes that require reformatting, general cleanup or addition of missing parameters, [[Template:Infobox Australian place/cleanup]] can be [[Help:Substitution|substituted]]. This will reformat the infobox and remove invalid parameters.

=== Calculating "image_upright" ===

The <code>image_upright</code> parameter, and <code>image2_upright</code> and <code>logo_upright</code> where applicable, is/are provided so as to facilitate the use of scalable images in this infobox, in accordance with the instructions at [[WP:IMAGESIZE]], which advises against the use of "px" (for example: <code>thumb|300px</code>), as this forces a fixed image width.

The <code>image_upright</code> parameter, and <code>image2_upright</code> and <code>logo_upright</code> where applicable, is/are provided so as to facilitate the use of scalable images in this infobox, in accordance with the instructions at [[wikipedia:WP:IMAGESIZE]], which advises against the use of "px" (for example: <code>thumb|300px</code>), as this forces a fixed image width.

Scalable images respect the user's base preference, which may have been selected for that user's particular devices. [[Module:InfoboxImage]], which is used in this infobox, accommodates the use of scaling. However, setting the appropriate scale is slightly more complex than setting a raw "px" value. This guide provides a quick conversion table to make the process of setting a scale easier. It is based on a default thumbnail setting of 220px.
