Templates
Content notice template
Template:Tl looks like this:
Script error: No such module "Template wrapper".
External link template: CongBio
Template:Tl allows linking to the Bioguide, using the subject as the parameter. For members who served only before 1991.
For example, Henry Clay's biography is at http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=C000482,
so {{CongBio|C000482}} will return an external link to that biography:
External link template: CongLinks
Template:Tl uses a multi-parameter to allow linking to the Bioguide along with several other sources for members, 1991–present. This is preferred.
There is more information available online for a more recent politician such as Hillary Clinton, so {{CongLinks | congbio = c001041 | votesmart = 55463 | washpo = Hillary_Clinton | govtrack = | opencong = | ontheissues = Hillary_Clinton.htm | surge = | legistorm = | fec = P00003392 | opensecrets = N00000019 | followthemoney = | cspan = 19027 | rose = 1897 | imdb = 0166921 | nyt = c/hillary_rodham_clinton | guardian = world/hillaryclinton | worldcat = lccn-n93-10903 | nndb = 022/000025944 | findagrave = }} will return additional relevant links:
