Template:WikiProject National Railway Museum/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage[edit]

When you create or find a new page within the scope of the National Railway Museum project please add any of the following to the top of its talk page:

{{WikiProject National Railway Museum |class= |importance= }}
{{WikiProject National Railway Museum |class= |importance= |listas= }}
{{WikiProject National Railway Museum
|class      = 
|importance = 
|listas     = 
}}

Unused parameters may be omitted.

This template, like a WikiProject template—though not belonging to a WikiProject per se—allows articles to be tracked according to quality and importance using the WP1.0 bot.

Optional parameters[edit]

  • class – valid values are listed in the custom class mask. 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. It's technically optional, but it's part of the point of the template.
  • 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. it's technically optional, but again, there's little point to the template if the quality and importance parts aren't filled out.
  • 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 John Coiley, use |listas=Coiley, John so that the talk page will show up in the C's and not the J'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.
  • 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.
