Template:Expert-subject

[edit] [purge] Template documentation

This template flags an article for the attention of a specific subject expert category. This template is a refinement of the {{expert}} template, which is now deprecated. Unlike its predecessor, this template will automatically categorize the article needing expert attention in a subcategory of Category:Articles needing expert attention depending on the topic of the article. These subcategories are named after Wikipedia:WikiProjects. Important: After adding this template to an article, please state on the article's talk page the issue that you think an expert needs to address. Unexplained expert tags may be simply removed.

Usage

1. Add the name of WikiProject as the first parameter, e.g., {{expert-subject|Technology}}.
2. A second parameter may be used to override the text "article or section" with, for example, "section", "diagram" or "paragraph". E.G. {{Expert-subject|Technology|documentation}}

This documentation is in need of attention from an expert on the subject. WikiProject Technology or the Technology Portal may be able to help recruit one.

Followup

After adding this template, start a section on the article discussion page describing what you wish the expert to address. {{Expert-talk}} may be used for this purpose. If the issue is of some urgency, you could also post a notice at the WikiProject you included in the template.

• Template:Technical (expert), also available as Template:Expert-make-accessible, can be used when the presentation of a topic appears more complicated than necessary, but you are not convinced that you understand the topic well enough to simplify the presentation yourself without "dumbing it down" (see WP:MTAA for further details on the accessibility/accuracy issue). It supports the same sub-categorization scheme as this template.
