Template
When applying this template to a county stub or article (which already all exist), it should be common practice to create a temporary page to work on, with the following notice:
- ''This temporary page is being used to expand and convert the article [[_]] over to the new format proposed at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Swedish counties|WikiProject Swedish counties]]. Please feel free to add or edit anything on this page to help in the conversion process.''
Don't forget to replace the "_" with the name of the article being converted.
To notify readers/writers that a new page is being created, place the following text on the country article itself:
- '''A new page based on the new [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Swedish counties|template]] is being worked on at [[_/Temp]], please make any changes you want to make on that page.'''
xx is a municipality in (direction) Sweden, in the county of zzz.
