Parameters

Parameter	Description
name	Name of the valley. If more than one valley by the name exists, the article is likely disambiguated but this name in the infobox should be the undisambiguated name.
other_name	Other English name for the valley if relatively well known.
native_name	non-English name of valley (if not main name) – use {{native name}} or, for multiple names, use {{native name list}}
translation	Translation of native name (if not main name)
photo	Photograph of the valley. Preferably a distance shot to show most/all of the valley. Do not include the "File:" prefix. If uploading a new image, please put them on Commons so they can be easily used by the other language Wikipedias.
photo_size	Specify the width of the photo in pixels. For example, photo_size = 200 with no "px". If no value is specified, the default width is 288 pixels. A standard horizontal photographic composition will generally display well at 288px. A standard vertical composition may need to be adjusted to 180 or 220 pixels.
photo_alt	Alt text for the photo, primarily for visually impaired readers. See Wikipedia:Alternative text for images.
photo_caption	Description of the photograph which is displayed below.
map	The name of a location map as per Template:Location map (e.g. Indonesia or Russia). The coordinates in the coordinates field will be used to position a pushpin coordinate marker and label on the map automatically. To use a static image, use |map_image=
map_image	The file name of a static map image to be displayed. To use a location map, use |map=.
map_size	Must be entered as only a number—no need for px. The default value is 250.
map_alt	Alt text for the map, primarily for visually impaired readers. See Alt text for maps.
map_caption	Fill out if a map caption is desired. If not specified, location will be used.
location	Province or state first, followed by country. For USA, the county is optional but if given, be provided before the state. If a pushpin map is being used, the location will be used for the map's caption unless the map_caption parameter is set.
country country1,country2,...	One or more countries that the valley lies in
region region1,region2,...	One or more regions (e.g., deserts) that the valley lies in
district district1,district2,...	One or more districts (e.g., U.S. counties) that the valley lies in
city city1,city2,...	One or more population centers within the valley
relief	If a location map template is specified, relief=1 will attempt to display a relief map if one is available. To force the default map image to display use |map_relief=0.
label	Label to be used for the valley's location on the map. If not specified, the value of the name parameter is used.
label_position	The position of the label on the pushpin map relative to the pushpin coordinate marker. Valid options are {left, right, top, bottom, none}. If this field is not specified, the default value is right.
coordinates	The latitude and longitude of the valley using the {{coord}} template with display=inline,title. If the article uses a geolinks template in the external links section, do not use the display parameter.
coordinates_ref	For any references regarding the coordinates reported. <ref> </ref> tags must be used.
elevation	Elevation of the valley floor. Metres should be used first for all valleys outside of the United States and feet for those within the U.S. For conversions, use elevation_m for metres to feet or elevation_ft for feet to metres.
elevation_ref	Reference for the elevation using the standard <ref> </ref> tags. If elevation_m/elevation_ft was used, the reference must be supplied using this parameter.
length length_mi,length_km	The length of the valley, measured along the longer axis. Use {{convert}} for both metric and US units, or use length_mi or length_km for autoconversion.
length_orientation	The orientation of the longer axis of the valley (e.g., N-S)
length_note	Any notes on the length (e.g., a reference)
width width_mi,width_km	The width of the valley, measured along the shorter axis. Use {{convert}} for both metric and US units, or use width_mi or width_km for autoconversion.
width_orientation	The orientation of the shorter axis of the valley
width_note	Any notes on the width (e.g., a reference)
area area_mi2,area_km2	The area of the valley. Use {{convert}} for both metric and US units, or use area_mi2 or area_km2 for autoconversion.
depth depth_ft,depth_m	The depth of the valley (from rim to floor). Use {{convert}} for both metric and US units, or use depth_ft or depth_m for autoconversion.
type	The geological type of valley (e.g., glacial)
age	The age of the rocks of the valley walls
border border1,border2,...	One or more geographic features that are immediately adjacent to the valley.
topo	The name of the topographic map showing the valley. In Canada, this is usually the National Topographic System map number while for the USA, it's the map name from the USGS.
traversed	Road or trails that cross or run through the valley
river river1,river2,...	One or more rivers that flow into or along the bottom of the valley
footnotes	References to support the infobox information
embed	"yes" if the valley infobox is embedded inside another Infobox
