The instructions state: Creating a new page, conforming to the style guide for the topic, will automatically be added to all pages where the associated "place" template has been added. - What is the style that the pages need to conform to in order to automate the addition of the topic on the place template? --[[User:JensenFA|Fran]] 19:20, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

:This was one of the early templates I created after getting involved in the wiki. I guess I thought that a style was established somewhere even if unwritten it has been established by convention as ''State/Country topic'' i.e. [[England Census]] and [[Utah Church Records]]. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] 19:57, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

::Oh, so that's why topics like "American Indian" doesn't automatically show up on a place template. I wanted to make changes to the Utah page by removing the Topic column and replace it with the Utah topic navigational box as a test for migrating the wiki into betaFS. That's why I was asking because there are several topics not listed in the place box that are listed in the column on the Utah page. --[[User:JensenFA|Fran]] 21:35, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
