[edit] Images
WikiProject Idaho uses Category:Idaho articles needing images to monitor all Idaho articles needing images. In addition, Wikipedian photographers living in Idaho use the subcategories at Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Idaho to locate those subjects near where they typically take photographs. The "imageneeded=" and "in=" parameters of {{WikiProject Idaho}} populate both these categories.
- To request an image for an article, use the "imageneeded=yes" parameter in the {{WikiProject Idaho}} article talk page template. Please use the "in=" parameter in the {{WikiProject Idaho}} template to specify the Idaho county where the photograph may be taken. Up to three locations may be specified, such as {{WikiProject Idaho|class=Start|importance=Low|imageneeded=yes|in=Boise County, Idaho|in2=Orange County, California|in3=France|nested=yes|unref=yes}}
- If you need to specify four or more locations (such as a road passing through eight Idaho counties), use {{reqphoto}} and its multiple "in=" parameters.
