Template talk:WikiProject United States

message: When this template is substituted, from e.g. Template:WikiProject Kentucky, it includes blank parameters for category and class. Wouldn't be it better if it didn't include them by default? The category parameter should be rarely needed, and the class parameter ideally isn't needed going forward either given WP:PIQA. -Kj cheetham (talk) 21:22, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

message: I'm the maintainer for the subject project and for overall project cleanup purposes have recently revised our project icon to use :File:Fleur-de-lis-3d-2.png instead of :File:Fleur-de-lis-3d.png. Could a template editor please make this change in the WP US? Not a high priority. Thanks. Stefen Towers among the rest! Gab • Gruntwerk 09:26, 14 January 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Minor edit request for WP Louisville 

message: Hello @Funandtrvl! So I found an inactive taskforce page Wikipedia:WikiProject Jewish-Americans which was, by the looks of it, abandoned mid-creation due to the creator suddenly abandoning Wikipedia. Since I have an interest in Jewish-American history and culture, I decided the page can be tidied up and added to the appropriate articles.
One issue the creator had was with parameters. I tried to add them too but I'm afraid I can't figure it out at all. If you can be so kind to help put in the  and  to  and we can, hopefully, get this up and running. Omnis Scientia (talk) 08:48, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: You requested an edit. But you have not put your proposed edit into the template's sandbox, let alone demonstrated it at the testcases page. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:50, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: @Redrose64, Ah alright, I see now. Thank you for your response. This is my first time requesting such an edit so I didn't know the procedure. Will do that and then return here. Omnis Scientia (talk) 21:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

text: @Redrose64, hello there. I've edited the sandbox and also demonstrated it at the testcase page as you have asked. I hope I did it right. Omnis Scientia (talk) 20:29, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
