{{Biographical Directory of Congress}} (and its shorter redirect {{CongBio}}) displays an external link to a specified article at the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress website (bioguide.congress.gov).

Usage

In the following, {{Biographical Directory of Congress can be used instead of {{CongBio.

Unnamed parameters

  • {{CongBio|ID}}
  • {{CongBio|ID|NAME}}

Named parameters

  • {{CongBio|id=ID}}
  • {{CongBio|id=ID|name=NAME}}
  • {{CongBio|id=ID|name=NAME|date=DATE}}
  • {{CongBio|id=ID|name=NAME|date=DATE|inline=YES}}
  • {{CongBio|id=ID|name=NAME|date=DATE|findagrave=GRID}}

There are some other additional parameters that carry default values: 

author=author — defaults to United States Congress, but it can be overwritten
mode  =mode   — defaults to cs1 but can be set to cs2 (see WP:CS1)
ref   =ref    — for use with the {{harv}} templates for inline citations 
                    defaults to:{{harv|United States Congress|ID}}
                    If the author is set to something other than United States Congress
                    then it is also changed here. The ref parameter can be assigned another
                    value including none to unset the parameter.
accessdate=date — the usual name for the "Retrieved" parameter
