added some ideas such as what an article might include
A lot of the location pages have been created already and are just waiting for the information to be added using the Locations Infobox Template below. For a list of pages aleady created go to the [[:Category:Locations]] page
== Templates ==
Please use the following Location Infobox template when creating locations pages. Using these templates helps us to provide a consistent appearance to the articles within our project.
=== Infobox Templates ===
These guidelines apply to all location infoboxes:
# Most of the fields in each infobox can be left out if desired.
# Multiple values given in a single field must be separated by commas and, where appropriate, line breaks <nowiki>(<br>)</nowiki>, as spacing them onto separate lines confuses screen reader software.
*[[Location Infobox]] - This infobox template is used to summarize information about a location. ==Sections to include==<small>This section is a work in progress - please discuss things to include/remove on the [[Talk:FibiwikiProject Locations|discussion page]].</small> All locations articles should be adapted to the place in question, but the ideal article might include the following elements:#Location infobox#Introductory paragraph (does not need a heading)#Spelling variants#History#Churches#Cemeteries#Schools#External links#Categories (see below) Include anything you think will be helpful to the researcher. ===Categories===Categories should be placed an the end of an article. All locations articles should be listed in [[:Category:Locations]], but additional categorisation will be helpful. As most locations are cities, towns or villages, please include a presidency category. You can copy and paste the text below. :*<nowiki> [[Category:Cities, towns and villages in Madras Presidency]]</nowiki>:*<nowiki> [[Category:Cities, towns and villages in Bengal Presidency]]</nowiki>:*<nowiki> [[Category:Cities, towns and villages in Bombay Presidency]]</nowiki>
