For

This geographic template is used here on WikiIndex to produce a brief introduction to category articles of Canadian states, officially provinces and territories, within the North American country of Canada (CAN), together with an interwiki link to the English Wikipedia (En.Wp) article of the same name.

Usage

Select and highlight {{Canada-stateCategoryHeader|**}}, copy (Ctrl-c on your keyboard, or ⌘-c on a Mac iOS), and then paste (Ctrl-v or ⌘-v) it at the top of the edit box of all categories of states (provinces and territories) of Canada listed here on WikiIndex, then amend the two asterisks (**) within the template code to the double-capital letters of its official Canadian postal abbreviation.

After previewing (Ctrl-p or ⌘-p) to verify your changes, save your edit (Ctrl-s or ⌘-s). Further descriptive text can be added immediately following the template code (leave two spaces, or two carriage returns); such as its capital (and / or largest) city, who it shares borders with (land borders with other states and / or countries, and maritime borders to water bodies), significant tourist or World Heritage features (which might have their own wiki), and any other notable information. If you are not familiar with this latter information, simply add {{Category-stub}} in addition to this template, so as to prompt other editors to add required information.

The usage of this Canada-stateCategoryHeader template on any category page will auto-include it into category: Canada state, itself a sub-category of category: Canada.
