==Legislative vote boxes==
Congresspedia uses extensions to create vote boxes for all roll call votes discussed on its' legislation pages. A different process must be followed, however, for votes in the 109th/110th Congress Congresses and votes prior to the 110th 109th Congress.
===109th and 110th Congress votes===
For 109th and 110th Congress votes, the extensions take information regarding a particular vote from [http://www.opencongress.org/ OpenCongress], and display it in a colorful, informative display box. The following are examples of the text necessary to generate House and Senate vote boxes:
<nowiki><USvoteinfo year="2007" chamber="senate" rollcall="126" /></nowiki>
<USvoteinfo year="2007" chamber="house" rollcall="126" />
===Votes prior to the 110th 109th Congress===
For all bills prior to the [[110th 109th Congress]] (before OpenCongress was launched), a separate process must be followed in order to generate vote boxes for roll call votes. Congresspedia editors have created separate templates for both House and Senate votes, and the following are instructions for entering the text necessary to generate them:
The House and Senate vote templates use the same inputs and you will need to collect the following pieces of information for them to work properly (instructions on how to input these pieces of information is below this chart):
