== Instructions ==
1. Create image map, instructions [[Help:Wiki_University_Wikitext--Image_Maps|here]].<br>
''Hint: When entering the name of the page for the county in the "Href" box, I usually copy and paste these county names so I don't misspell them and then have to "move" or rename the template)''
:a. You may see <font color="red">%2C</font> after the name of the county in the first line of code.
:b. You must change the %2C to a <font color="red">comma</font>.  <br>The wiki does not recognize the %2C.2. Save the image coding as a template, for example: <font color="red"><nowiki>template:KS Allen County</nowiki></font>.<br>
:a. Must have the word "template:" as part of the name of the image template. Note the colon.
:b. First two capital letters are the [https://www.bls.gov/cew/cewedr10.htm two letter post office codes] for each state.<br>
:c. Next is the name of the county for which you are creating the image map.  <br>
:d. Add the this line of code to the bottom of all the code.  This give the image map a category.<br>
::<font color="red"><nowiki><noinclude>[[Category:Image map templates]]</noinclude></nowiki></font>. 
''Note the <font color="red">noinclude</font> just means that the text for the category will not show on the page even though it has been placed in a category.''<br>
3.'''Limit size to 250px'''. See [[Help:Wiki_University_Wikitext--Image_Maps#Limit size of image map]]<br><br>

<div style="border:1px solid black; padding:1em; width:400px">
<nowiki>=== Maps and Gazetteers ===</nowiki><br>
