Project Goals

The goal of this project is develop a list of the most common undergraduate and legal universities for the current Article III judges and a historical projection of the most common projections throughout the history of the federal judiciary. This will involve placing a category tag on each judges page representing their undergraduate university and their legal degree. Graduate studies in law or any other field will not be counted towards these totals. The project will begin with work on current article three judges and then progress to cover senior judges and finally former judges. Eventually ever current and former Article III judge will contain these tags.

Category format

The development of categories will be an organic process. All category tags that are created should be added to the subsequent tabs to prevent similar names. Some categories have already been done in an unsystematic way and will need to be updated and corrected to correspond with current guidelines However, there are a few clear category guidelines:

Undergraduate Universities These categories apply to the following degrees:

• Bachelor of Arts (B.A.)
• Bachelor of Science (B.S.)

Categorization norms:

1. All category titles will end with the term Alumni
2. The full university title should be used including full state names with a few exceptions

1. State University of New York should be abbreviated SUNY
2. City University of New York should be abbreviated CUNY

1. Schools should include a location to differentiate between similarly named schools.
2. University should be abbreviated U. wherever it falls in the official titles.
3. Schools that are recognizable by a single title should omit University

• eg. Notre Dame, Harvard, Yale etc.

1. Categories should be added to the parent category Category:Undergraduate universities

Law universities

• Juris Doctor (J.D.)
• Bachelors of Law (LL.B., LLB, Ll.B.)

1. All category titles will end with the term Law Alumni
2. The phrase "School of Law" or similar phrases are considered to be abbreviated into Law within the mandatory ending.
3. The full university title should be used including full state names with a few exceptions

1. State University of New York should be abbreviated SUNY
2. City University of New York should be abbreviated CUNY

1. Schools should include a location to differentiate between similarly named schools.
2. University should be abbreviated U. wherever it falls in the official titles.
3. Categories should be added to the parent category Category:Law schools

Be sure to check the lists on the corresponding tabs prior to creating a new category. If you create a new category, be sure to add it to the corresponding lists. If you are not sure where to add it, please add it to the top of the list. Universities will be sorted by ______________. The test page contains a dpl to list judges by court.

State Categories

University and Law school pages should be tagged with the appropriate state in which that school can be found. For example: Category:U. of Alabama Alumni should be tagged with Category:Alabama universities.

The category structure is:
[[:Category:College count]]

[[:Category:STATE universities]]

[[:Category:College count]]

[[:Category:STATE law schools]]

[[:Category:STATE]]

[[Category:STATE universities]]

[[:Category:STATE law schools]]

Templates and DPLs

Tools

Category check

Template:College Count helper dpl

For current federal judges
The code:

{{College Count helper dpl|District = DISTRICTNAME}}

Produces a numbered list of current federal judges along with all of the categories attached to that judge and allows you to check for compliance with both college tags as well as Category:Current federal judge.

For senior federal judges
The code:

{{College Count helper dpl|District = DISTRICTNAME|Senior = Yes}}

Produces a numbered list of senior federal judges along with all of the categories attached to that judge and allows you to check for compliance with both college tags as well as Category:Senior federal judge.

For former federal judges
The code:

{{College Count helper dpl|District = DISTRICTNAME|Former = Yes}}

Produces a numbered list of former federal judges along with all of the categories attached to that judge and allows you to check for compliance with both college tags as well as Category:Former federal judge.

School number check

Template:College count school tester

The code:

{{College count school tester|Category = SCHOOLCATEGORYNAME}}

Produces three numbered lists of judges, current/senior/former that fall within that category. This can be used to apply the Template:College count category HNT to category pages.

Category HNT

Numerous templates will be installed on every Category page and will enable us to quickly collect data on that category page. The information will automatically update as new pages are added to the category. The code looks like:

Merely replace Alumnus with the name (without namespace) of the category on which the code appears. Once saved, the Category page should look like this page:

• Category:Harvard Alumni

"WikiProject:Judicious education, College Count" Will automatically be replaced with the page name.

Page makers

State pages

All state pages get the code:

{{College count by state DPL|State=STATE|Level="universities/law schools"}}

Which will display:

Federal Judge College count for Ivy universities*

School	Current	Senior	Former	Total	Current Chief
