Template talk:Ctycat

Old-style USA/State/County pages
Recent casualties of templating have been the lines that are in this form:


 * See also: USA/Arizona/La Paz

Bill Willis was using them for neat tables of county data, but I think the November 2007 advances have made those comparatively inefficient. I doubt if anybody uses them now. AMK152 probably approves of them in part because they include the country name.

If anybody can get a consensus or even a significant minority wanting them back for some reason, speak up. It will be fairly easy to restore those old links and 3000 more using templates. Maybe even by simple incorporation into ctycat (asking users to add yet another parameter — the county name — unless some genius can extract that programmatically from the category page name, in which case ctycat could be made easier to use by incorporating the state name too).
