Syntax

There are several standard chess diagram templates:

• Template:Chess diagram (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram small (square size 22x22 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 4x4 (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 4x5 (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 5x5 (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 6x6 (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 8x10 (Capablanca chess square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 8x12 (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 9x9 (square size 26x26 px)
• Template:Chess diagram 10x10 (square size 26x26 px)

There are also templates for chess variants:

• Template:Alice chess diagram (Alice chess, square size 22x22 px)
• Template:Bughouse chess diagram (Bughouse chess, square size 22x22 px)
• Template:Omega Chess diagram (Omega Chess with 10x10 board + 4 corners, 22x22 px)
• Template:Raumschach diagram (5x5x5 board for Three-dimensional chess, 22x22 px)

The syntax is basically the same for all of them.

{{Chess diagram
| <alignment> (param #1)
| <header>    (#2) 
| size =
| numbers =
| letters =
| <a8> | <b8> | ... | <h8>  (#3 to ...
| <a7> | <b7> | ... | <h7>
...
| <a1> | <b1> | ... | <h1>  ( ... #66)
| <footer> (#67)
}}

Parameters:

• <alignment> – defines horizontal alignment (floating) of the whole table, must be tright or tleft (or nothing)
• <header> – the text which appears above the diagram, may be empty;
• size - specifies the size of each square in pixels, the default is 26.
• numbers - specifies whether the rows are numbered. Options are: left, right, both (default) or neither.
• letters - specifies whether the columns are lettered. Options are: top, bottom, both (default) or neither.
• <a8>, <b8>, ... <h1> – define corresponding squares of the chessboard, see below;
• <footer> – the text which appears beneath the diagram, may be empty; optional – can be left out (currently not in the other templates)

A square is defined by the name of piece or empty parameter. The names of the pieces are those given in algebraic notation:

• k = king
• q = queen
• r = rook
• b = bishop
• n = knight
• p = pawn

There are also some fairy chess pieces available:

• a = archbishop (knight + bishop compound)
• c = chancellor (knight + rook compound)
• f = upside-down king
• g = upside-down queen
• m = upside-down rook
• e = upside-down bishop
• s = upside-down knight
• h = upside-down pawn
• z = champion (for Omega Chess)
• w = wizard (for Omega Chess)

These letters are combined with either "l" for Light=White, or "d" for Dark=Black. So "kl" is White's king, and "nd" is Black's knight.

An empty square is written either using underscores, spaces, or nothing at all. Two spaces are recommended.

• <space> = empty square

You can also use "xx" for a cross, "xo" for a black circle on an empty square or "oo" for a white one.

• xx = cross/x
• xo = black circle
• oo = white circle

Numbers can also be added to squares by using "x0" for 0, "x1" for 1, "x2" for 2, ..., "x9" for 9.

• x0
• x1
• x2
• x3
• x4
• x5
• x6
• x7
• x8
• x9

Examples

In the following examples the rows and columns are numbered. Because any text between "|=" and the next "|" is ignored, numbers and letters can be added without affecting output.

Mate in two.
This problem uses partial retrograde analysis method.

It may be convenient to use this in the articles on chess problems. Please note that in the header and footer you can use bolds or italics. You can also use <br> to break the lines.

See the corresponding code below. If you don't want the captions, just remove them, but don't delete the second "|" pipe character for the caption above; it is possible to delete the last pipe for the longer caption below.

The diagram floats to the left to illustrate the use of the first parameter.

Small diagram

This one may be useful in articles with many diagrams. It uses another template named {{Chess diagram small}}.

The small diagrams can have header, too.
