Template:County3Top

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

County name Formed
in
History


This transclusion macro is used to finish the heading of a table listing entries for counties where the listing entries are to be 3 columns consisting of the name of the county, year of formation and history. It is used where you do not include a <ref> explanation for the County FIPS code, because for some reason references do not carry forward from a macro.

Usage: {{County3Top|Fips=}}
Where

Fips= is the two digit FIPS State Code, e.g. Fips=02 for Alaska, Fips=08 for Arizona, etc.

optional parametere

ShowSeat=Y to indicate that the county seat will be listed in the table as an entry in parentheses after the name of the county.
Type= defaults to County; you set it if the name is something else such as Type=Parish

This macro usually follows the macro {{County3TableStart}} or some similar 3-column header to displaying county information in a table form. Table entries typically use the template County3 unless they require special display, then they use the typical wiki table entries. See the category below for more details.
