Reformatting Maps

Purpose[edit | edit source]

To check reformat the Map in the Map and Gazetteers section of each Wyoming County page.

Task List[edit | edit source]

Task List

Instructions[edit | edit source]

1.  Go to the Task List and sign up for a span of counties to work on.

2. Most of the maps on the county page are too small. We want to make them bigger and move them to the right.

3. Adapt the wikitext code listed under the Map and Gazetteers heading to 500px and add right| to the image code. Do not add thumb to this as we don't need a border.

4. You can also remove the repeat title of the map at the end of the code.

Example of correct wikitext code:
[[Image:Wyalbany.jpg|right|500px]]

5. Once you have corrected the code, cut and paste it directly below the heading and before the Intro template.

Preview the Page[edit | edit source]

6. Once you fixed the image wikitext code preview the page to make sure links work and formatting is correct.

7. In the Edit Summary box add, formatted map and save the page.

8. Go back to the task list and put the date and sign up for a new span of counties.
