[edit] Modify to use same format as WikiProject California?

template:WikiProject California seems to have a lot more options (e.g. tags for importance, image needed, etc.) Any objections to modifying it to use for this WikiProject template? --Roswell native 06:19, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. No use reinventing the wheel. At some point, I'll start working on instructions for this as well. -- Satori Son 21:39, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

OK, just converted the template to the California layout. Everything appears to work. --Roswell native 20:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks great! I've started adding the instructions, but some of the optional fields are new to me. I'll look for an existing state template that already has instructions and try to finish in the next day or so. -- Satori Son 20:39, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why the ???

I'm just curious as to why the three question marks are below the flag? JohnCub 21:35, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

It's for the class rating. If that parameter is left blank, it shows as question marks and causes the article's talk page to be placed in the Unassessed article category for the WikiProject. For example, if you supply class=Stub to the template, the "???" would be replaced with "Stub".--Roswell native 22:26, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Makes perfect sense. Thanks for the info. JohnCub 14:23, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Template parameters

Please check out Talk:Ty Cobb Museum to see the template with all parameters "turned on". We need to come up with some images for some of them (e.g. article of the month) as it looks like this template was stolen from the Boy Scouts. Also, where do you think the links such as "collaboration of the month" should point? Right now they just go to WP:GEORGIA.--Roswell native 03:13, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

I've updated the picture for "article of the month" and will look for some others.

And, trying not to brag, let me say that our template here is already absolutely the best of all the WikiProject state's templates (I know because I looked at them all today in the search for images). Roswell native is doing an absolutely fantastic job on this, and we owe him/her a big thanks. -- Satori Son 17:20, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks SS. Any gifted artistic folks out there want to do a nice looking outline of Georgia to replace the current boy scout images on several of the tags.--Roswell native 04:30, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
