[edit] MSA

Why are the names (or portions of names) of some of the MSAs bolded? -Acjelen 21:23, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

They are bolded because these are major cities with a population of over 500,000. —RJN 01:53, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Counties

I would like to suggest to include all Texas counties on the template. That way one will not have to look any further to find more information. (Eddie 01:47, 23 July 2006 (UTC))

There were several discussions on including counties in the past and the results were not to include them on this template. See the talk archive of several discussions and concensuses. Other states can include counties because they don't have that many, but Texas has 254. If you are curious to see what the template looks like with counties included, click here.—RJN 01:30, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Standardization of state templates

There is currently an ongoing discussion regarding standardization of state templates (primarily regarding layout and styling) at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates. An effort was made earlier this year to standardize Canadian province templates (which mostly succeeded). Lovelac7 and I have already begun standardizing all state templates. If you have any concerns, they should be directed toward the discussion page for state template standardization. Thanks! — Webdinger ^{BLAH | SZ} 23:00, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
