Guide
editThis is a template which contains an Image map. This means that if you edit this section then it will appear in all the Emancipation Proclamation articles. The good news is that good changes will be seen a large number of times. The bad news is that you can wreck other articles and go on a rampage. So don't edit it if you don't know what you're doing. Do go and look at other articles to check your change has not caused grief - If in doubt then discuss your proposed changes first on the talk pages. This was made with this tool.[dead link]
