Template:SD-legdb/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template creates a formatted link from a number that represents a particular South Dakota legislator in the South Dakota Legislator Historical Listing.

This also returns the bullet (*), so adding this template next to a bullet will indent it further.

{{SD-legdb|2930}} (the entry for former State Rep. Tim Johnson) will create the following information:

The name is generated from the name of the page that is calling it (if you use the same template on the article for a different representative or senator it will display the name from the article title). You can optionally pass a second parameter if you want the name displayed to be different than the page title (such as when the article contains a phrase set off in parentheses for disambiguation purposes).
