Documentation

Any value not given will default to unknown, except the habitability which will only appear if it is specified, otherwise it will be omitted. Since this is for a binary star system, there are be 2 of each field present

As a side-note, habitability can be calculated in a few ways, but for a binary or trinary system like this, one can go here. The exact region is given graphically and is an ellipse (2 stars, 2 focal points), since this doesn't have to be exact one can decide how precise they want to be. Wolfram Alpha can derive a lot of values for luminosity and temperature from a spectral class.

Template is used as follows:

{{Star Data
|namea=    Name of Main Star
|nameb=    Name of Companion Star
|typea=    Type of Main Star (Spectral Class / Type)
|typeb=    Type of Companion Star (Spectral Class / Type)
|radiusa=  Radius / Size of Main Star
|radiusb=  Radius / Size of Companion Star
|massa=    Mass of the Main Star
|massb=    Mass of the Companion Star
|tempa=    Temperature of the Main Star
|tempb=    Temperature of the Companion Star
|luma=     Luminosity of the Main Star
|lumb=     Luminosity of the Companion Star
|distance= Distance between the Stars
|hab=      Habitability zone or ecosphere of the Star System
|loc=      Location of the Star / Star System
}}

Example

The following code is for an example star:

{{Binary Star Data
|namea=Vularan
|nameb=Delule
|typea=M1V Red Dwarf
|typeb=M2V Red Dwarf
|radiusa={{Exp|2.98|5}} (0.43 of Sol)
|radiusb={{Exp|2.71|5}} (0.39 of Sol)
|massa={{Exp|7.29|29}} kg (0.37 of Sol)
|massb={{Exp|5.49|29}} kg (0.28 of Sol)
|tempa=3200 K
|tempb=3000 K
|luma={{Exp|6.61|24}} (0.02 of Sol)
|lumb={{Exp|4.23|24}} (0.01 of Sol)
|distance={{Exp|3.04|7}} km (0.20 AU)
|hab=Between 0.15 and 0.35 AU 
|loc=Alpha Valerian Sector<br>3 ly from the Theta Boromir System<br>7 ly from the Omega Aquarius Sector
}}
