Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used on approximately 16,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

{{US state navigation box}} is a meta-template used for each U.S. state, territory, and the District of Columbia navbox.

Usage

{{US state navigation box
| template_name = {{subst:PAGENAME}} <!-- required -->
| title         = <!-- required -->
| state         =
| color         =
| text_color    =
| capital       =
| seat          =
| subtitle      =
| image         =
| group1        = <!-- required, can use up to |group9= -->
| body1         = <!-- required, can use up to |body9= -->
}}

Parameters

Mandatory

template_name: The name of the template, which is needed for the "view • talk • edit" links to work properly on all of the pages where the template is used on. You can enter {{subst:PAGENAME}} for this value as a shortcut.

title: Combines the {{{type}}} and {{{name}}} parameters.

group_n: Subtitle to appear at the left of each body_n

body_n: There are a total of 9 group/list pairs, so you can use up to group9 and list9. Additional items can easily be added to the template if needed.

Optional

state: autocollapse: (default) the navigation box will start out expanded unless there are two or more collapsible tables on the same page.; expanded: always starts out in an uncollapsed state.; collapsed: the navigation box will always start out in a collapsed state.

color

Changes the default background color for the main title and sidebar titles, i.e.

color = #2e8b57

Working examples: {{California}}, {{Maryland}}, and {{Pennsylvania}}.

text_color

Changes the default text color for the main title and sidebar titles. Note that you will still need to manually change the color of any wikilinks using a span tag, i.e.

]

Working examples: {{Nevada}}, {{Maine}}, and {{Hawaii}}.

capital: Lists the capital below the state

seat: Used for the seat of government for {{American Samoa}}.

subtitle: Used only on {{District of Columbia}} to say "Capital of the United States" since D.C. has no capital.

image

Adds an image to the right of the body area. Use only if there is a lot of extra whitespace at the right side of the body area. It is recommended to use a map to fill the space, similar to Template:US county navigation box. Example:

image = ]

Example

Code

{{US state navigation box
| template_name = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title = ] of ]
| state = {{{state<includeonly>|uncollapsed</includeonly>}}}
