This page is a content-and-style guide about how to add an infox and photograph to articles about organizations.

Infobox

Infoboxes for organization profiles are a table of information with a readily recognizable appearance that is added to the top right-hand corner of articles about state legislators. It presents a summary of key information about the organization, with that summary being consistent from article-to-article.

Information in

The pieces of information that go into the infobox are:

• Name of the organization
• Logo/image
• Leadership or president
• website link

Installation

The code for the organization profile infobox is:

{{Short organization profile | 
 name                =  | 
 organization image  =  |
 leadership          =  |
 website             =  | 
}} 

This is how the code looks when you have filled it in, which you do by copying the code immediately above, inserting it into the article you're working on, and then filling in the requested pieces of information.

{{Short organization profile |
  name                =  Colorado Union of Taxpayers | 
  organization image  =  |
  leadership          =  Marty Nielson | 
  website             =  [http://www.coloradotaxpayer.org/ Official website] | 
}}

Missing information

You can install an infobox if you don't yet have all the information that typically goes into the infobox. This is what a partially filled in infobox looks like:

{{Short organization profile |
  name                = Colorado Union of Taxpayers | 
  organization image  =  |
  leadership          =  | 
  website             =  [http://www.coloradotaxpayer.org/ Official website] | 
}}
