For all fields, no wikilinks are automatically incorporated into the infobox. Therefore, if you want anything to be linked to something else, they must be added when including the template.

[edit] Required fields

title - A title for the attack; most likely this will match the article title, but you can change it to something slightly different if the title is a little over-descriptive
location - The city where the attack occurred; including the country is preferred for cities; including the province or state is discouraged unless necessary or well-known:

Major, international cities: Tokyo is okay, but Tokyo, Japan is preferred unless it compromises stylistic appearance
Major cities in well-known provinces: Toronto, Ontario, Canada is unnecessarily specific; Toronto, Ontario or Toronto, Canada preferred (although Toronto is okay)
Cities with relative international anonymity: Beslan is not good due to the city's relative anonymity; Beslan, Russia is preferred, Beslan, North Ossetia-Alania discouraged, Beslan, Russia, North Ossetia-Alania unnecessarily specific
Cities with common names: Portland is not good; Portland, USA is not good either; Portland, Oregon (well-known state) or Portland, Oregon, USA preferred

date - The date of the attack; use {{Start date}} to allow for users' date preferences to go into effect and include the date in the hCalendar microformat (see below; end-date and time parameters will be added to the microformat, later).
