Template:WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America/doc

Usage

When you create or find a new page within the scope of WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America please add any of the following to the top of its talk page:

{{WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America |class= |importance= }}

{{WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America |class= |importance= |anishinaabe= |needs-photo= |attention= |listas= }}

{{WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America
|class       = 
|importance  = 
|anishinaabe = 
|needs-photo = 
|attention   = 
|listas      = 
}}

Unused parameters may be omitted. This template automatically adds articles to Category:WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America articles.

Parameters

• anishinaabe – set |anishinaabe=yes if if the page is within the scope of WikiProject Anishinaabe..
  • This parameter populates Category:WikiProject Anishinaabe articles.
• attention – set |attention=yes if the article needs immediate attention from experienced editors. Use only if another parameter does not cover the need for attention; this should be used sparingly. It is strongly encouraged to also add a section to the talk page explaining what needs attention.
  • This parameter populates Category:Indigenous peoples of North America articles needing attention.
• class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, na (case-insensitive). See the project's quality scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |class= blank or omit the parameter.
• importance – valid values are: top, high, mid, low, na (case-insensitive). See the project's importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |importance= blank or omit the parameter.
• listas – This parameter, which is the equivalent of the DEFAULTSORT sortkey that should be placed on all biographical articles, is a sortkey for the article talk page (e.g. for Clifford Birdinground, use |listas=Birdinground, Clifford so that the talk page will show up in the B's and not the C's of the various assessment and administrative categories). This is important because it is one source used by those who set DEFAULTSORT on the article; consider also setting the DEFAULTSORT for the article when setting this parameter. For more information about this, please see Wikipedia:Categorization of people § Ordering names in a category.
  If the article is using {{WikiProject banner shell}} then it is preferable to add |listas= to that template instead of a project banner template. Putting the parameter on more than one template is not required.
• needs-photo – set |needs-photo=yes to request that an image or images be included in the article to improve its quality.
  • This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested images of indigenous peoples of North America.
• category – set |category=no if, and only if, a banner is being used for demonstration or testing purposes, to prevent unnecessary or undesirable categorization. Otherwise, omit this parameter.

To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.

Aliases

• The parameters |needs-image=, |image-needed=, |photo-needed= and |image-requested= are recognised as aliases for |needs-photo=. If more than one is present, the order of precedence, from highest to lowest, is: |needs-photo= → |needs-image= → |image-needed= → |photo-needed= → |image-requested= . Parameters with lower precedence are ignored.
