Goal: To create stub articles for all the cities in the United States.

[edit] Current to do list

  1. Create horizontal templates for each state listing all cities
  2. Create stub articles for all cities in every state

Future

  1. Rate all the cities using the 10 point checklist
  2. Add additional information to each city

[edit] Style tips

  • Cities should be called [[CITY, STATE]]
  • Add {{TOCnestright}} to the top corner of every article

[edit] How to

Copy the following text into cities in order to create stubs.

{{City transparency checklist |
 Rating                    = {{Rating0}} |
 Budget                    = - |

[edit] Discussion template

  • For each page make sure you add the state project template to the discussion page. This will be the state abbreviation like {{al}} It will look something like this:
This page is part of Project Alabama, a Sunshine Review Project dedicated to articles related to Alabama.


[edit] Category hierarchies

In order to create a category hierarchy please look to the example below:

For an article about a city you would follow this hierarchy:

  • [[Category:starter class STATE cities]]
  • [[Category:My Government Website/Cities]]
  • >>[[Category:STATE]]
  • [[Category:STATE cities]]
  • >>[[Category:STATE]]

[edit] Cities

When you finish stub articles for an entire state Mark through the State so we'll know when it's done. To do this just surround the words with the following: <s>STATE</s>
