Fix some things

Here is a list of a few more things to do.

1. Replaced TeSan Antonio task force articles missing geocoordinate data with San Antonio task force articles missing geocoordinate data
2. Replaced Wikipedia requested maps of Vermont topics with Wikipedia requested maps in Vermont
3. Replaced Wikipedia requested maps of Utah topics with Wikipedia requested maps in Utah

5. Update naming for Salem Witch trials task force categories Kumioko (talk) 03:04, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

1–4 fixed, wiki hopefully not blown up. Sorry, but could you be a little more specific about #5? Is it just the map & photo categories that need fixing? Choess (talk) 04:40, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

If you go to the sandbox page (there's a link in the {{Edit protected}} box, and Kumioko provided another in the first sentence above), you'll find a notice like this. Click the diff link, and you'll see exactly what is required. --Redrose64 (talk) 15:45, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

 Done Mea culpa. Thanks for the tip, Redrose64, and thanks, Kumioko, for making it easy to implement. Choess (talk) 01:01, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

remove duplication of requests

Please update to copy in sandbox. This removes duplication of Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Seattle, Washington articles in parent Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Washington. --Traveler100 (talk) 20:24, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

Request to change the maximum number of projects allowed

So presently, only three projects show up under this template. Is there any way to get it bumped up to ten, since there are likely some pages that encompass more than five projects. Thanks! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 07:34, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. I'm not quite sure what you mean here. If you mean the task forces, then I don't think there is a limit to how many you can activate at one time, and I can't think of what else your post might be referring to. Maybe someone else who watches this talk page can help you, but until then I'm deactivating the request. Once you have the actual code that needs to be changed, and if your edit has consensus, feel free to reactivate the {{edit protected}} template.

This is the issue that I was referring to. Right now, three projects are showing, but there are seven tagged, so it is hiding most of the projects. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 17:37, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

The parameters |NY=yes |NYC=yes |NJ=yes |VA=yes are obsolete (they put the page into Category:United States articles with invalid parameters); and the parameters |NY-importance=low |NYC-importance=low |NJ-importance=low |VA-importance=low are not recognised at all. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:49, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Actually its not that those parameters are obsolete, they are not supported by this template or the project. They need to add the appropriate WikiProject banners for those projects.NY, NJ, VA and NYC all have their own banners and projects that support them. They did not want to be supported by WPUS nor have their banners included as part of this template. Kumioko (talk) 20:17, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Okay, that makes some more sense. I was just confused because it was the first three that were there, and I figured that something was amiss. Thanks for the clarification, everyone! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 06:33, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

New York-related projects

The article assessment departments of WikiProject Cornell University, WikiProject Columbia University, and WikiProject SUNY were moved to WikiProject New York and {{WikiProject New York}} as the result of a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New York#WikiProject SUNY. All of those project's articles have the new banner, and as such any code in this template that relates to Cornell, Columbia, and SUNY can be removed. – TMF (talk) 08:47, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Images redlinked?

Hello, I noticed a redlink in the image on {{US-gov-stub}} (as it appears on a transcluded page; not as it appears on the template's page itself); I went to its talk page and found a redlinked image on this template. I don't know if this problem is peculiar to my browser/server/computer etc. See for yourself... • Serviceable†Villain 10:35, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
