Minnesota judge page elements

Below are common components on judge pages in the Minnesota WikiProject. Any or all of these elements could be added to the judge pages in the category Minnesota stubs. You can visit an example at Judgepedia:How to create a judge page.

• Education - a section outlining where and when the judge attended school
• Career - a section outlining what courts a judge may have served on, how they got to the court and how long they have been on it (appointment, retention elections, etc.), if they changed position on the court (eg, became Chief Judge), etc.
• Notable cases - a section discussing rulings of note or cases of interest presided over by the judge
• Elections - include election history
• External links - links to other websites pertinent to the judge (i.e., the website for the court on which he or she serves)

User badge

This user is a member of the Minnesota WikiProject

If you're working on articles in this project, it is to your advantage to place the user badge that appears to your right on your user page. This gives you two advantages:

• It makes it very easy for you to get to the project page for this state, which means you can quickly re-familiarize where you were on any particular to-do list you were working on.
• It makes it easy for other users to identify who else is working on articles about this state's courts or judges. This fosters your ability to collaborate with each other more readily.
• To insert the badge on your user page, type {{User WikiProject Minnesota}}.
• But if you want the badge to appear in a stack with other badges, type <table style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; margin-bottom: 0.5em; width: 242px; border: #99B3FF solid 1px"> <tr><td>{{User WikiProject Minnesota}}</td></tr> </table> and similarly enclose other user badge templates between their own sets of <tr><td></td></tr> tags.
• See User:Madison for an example.
