Usage

{{culpa-also|professor-id}}

Where professor-id is the uniquely assigned number for the professor on culpa. To find a professor's professor-id:

  1. Go to culpa
  2. In the "Search" box on the right side of the screen, type the name of the professor and click "Go"
  3. Find the correct professor among the results and click the "view all reviews" link.
  4. The professor ID is contained in the URL. For example, with Philip Kitcher, the URL is
    http://www.culpa.info/?root=psearch&process=viewprof&prof=428&target=philip%2520kitcher
    . In the URL, we see prof=428. Therefore Philip Kitcher's Culpa professor id is 428, thus the template on his page reads:
    {{culpa-also|428}}

Troubleshooting

Yeah... I don't know how to work this. I try posting {{culpa-also|http://culpa.info/?root=dept&process=viewprof&prof=63&dept=9}} for Gulati and it just comes up as unparsed text. Little help? Nonsensical 17:00, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

I think it's not working because of the characters in the URL, maybe "?" or "&" or some combination of those characters. It's working now for people to specify a professor number and department number. For example: {{culpa-also|63|9}}.  − Reaganaut  18:05, 10 May 2007 (EDT)
I made it so you only have to specify the professor id. Not perfect, but less work than typing both dept id & prof id. --Nonsensical 14:56, 14 June 2007 (EDT)
