Template talk:WikiProject National Football League

Template:WikiProject National Football League is permanently protected from editing because it is a heavily used or highly visible template. Substantial changes should first be proposed and discussed here on this page. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by consensus, editors may use {{edit template-protected}} to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit. Usually, any contributor may edit the template's documentation to add usage notes or categories.

Any contributor may edit the template's sandbox. This template does not have a testcases subpage. You can create the testcases subpage here.

Document

Please add {{documentation}} to the template. --Pinkkeith (talk) 17:02, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone please add this code:

<noinclude>
{{documentation}}
</noinclude>

thanks! --Pinkkeith (talk) 16:25, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of C-class

{{editprotected}} Code needs to be added so the banner recognizes C-class rated articles. Also, is it really neccessary to full protect this template? I would think that autoconfirm would be enough and many other high profile wikiprojects do not use full-protection or any at all. Thanks.--Finalnight (talk) 18:05, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

When you have the necessary code, re-activate the {{editprotected}} request. And, this template has over 5,000 transclusions, so full protection is not really optional. Cheers. --MZMcBride (talk) 19:03, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updated Template

{{Editprotected}} Does anyone have any objections to the template being updated to the version currently in the sandbox? -- WOSlinker (talk) 17:33, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have no objections to this. --Pinkkeith (talk) 21:11, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just a question "to improve the coverage of National Football League", is that missing a "the" before "National"? — CHAN DLER ^#10 — 17:58, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I changed the text of the sandbox verision to be the same as the text that is currently being used. --Pinkkeith (talk) 16:03, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The sandbox version doesn't use full quality scale. Given that there are 398 categories and 720 templates, this should probably be implemented? Martin 10:32, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You could bring that up with the Wikiproject, but I don't think there will be much interest. --Pinkkeith (talk) 15:35, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good spot. I hadn't included the Full Quality Scale as I was trying to keep it similar to {{American Football League project}} which uses the same categories. I've added that option now. -- WOSlinker (talk) 19:15, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Cheers. --MZMcBride (talk) 08:36, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Add to [[Category:WikiProject banners]]

Can some admin please add this Project banner to [[Category:WikiProject banners]] so that the Article Alertbot will function? Thanks!--Deejayk (talk) 03:57, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is no need according to Wikipedia:Article alerts/Subscribing#Subscribing for a project as the banner is already in Category:WikiProject banners with quality assessment. -- WOSlinker (talk) 07:42, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think what is needed is for the banner to be renamed to Template:WikiProject National Football League, as mentioned on Wikipedia:WikiProject National Football League/Article alerts, the banner could not be found at Template:WikiProject National Football League. -- WOSlinker (talk) 07:45, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe there is any need to change the banner name — instead I've updated the Article Alerts subscription tag to reference the correct name. If you are correct about the category issue, then we should be all set once the bot gets around to looking at this project again. -- Deejayk (talk) 15:39, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Req

{{editprotected}} Could template be changed to use {{pagetype|{{{class|}}}}} & new QUALITY_SCALE settings as per the National Football League/sandbox&diff=314998033&oldid=314997937 edits in the sandbox. Thanks -- WOSlinker (talk) 23:14, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject National Football League → Template:WikiProject NFL — To standardize. –xeno^talk 14:20, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I would also support a move to Template:WikiProject National Football League. – PeeJay 17:54, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- That would be fine as well, either way would be the standard form. –xeno^talk 17:56, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I support the proposed change (to Template:WikiProject NFL), but the Template:WikiProject National Football League suggestion strikes me as unnecessarily verbose. I would suggest that Template:WikiProject NFL become the "official" name and Template:WikiProject National Football League be redirected to that. — DeeJayK (talk) 18:26, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  - Sounds fair enough to me. I only proposed Template:WikiProject National Football League as that is the actual name of the WikiProject. – Pee Jay 00:29, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Per this discussion without objection, I want to add importance to the quality assessment of NFL articles. Please replace...

...with...

|QUALITY_SCALE         = extended
 |class={{{class|}}}
 |auto={{{auto|}}}

Book-class articles

Does anyone know why Book class articles, like Book:New York Jets, don't show up as "Book-Class articles", but rather "NA-Class articles"? Does anyone know how to fix that? – Muboshgu (talk) 23:29, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have made a little change at the sandbox by setting to subpage with a {{class mask}} template. The banner currently uses extended on the QUALITY_SCALE. I am not an administrator myself, I will make changes for you if you want. JJ98 (Talk / Contributions) 11:34, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That would be appreciated. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:40, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request, Book-Class

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Some changes have been made throughout the sandbox, including the attention, infobox, needs-image and unref parameters have been added along with MAIN_TEXT which is removed and replaced with the MAIN_ARTICLE and the American Football portal has been replaced by the National Football League portal, including the QUALITY_SCALE to subpage to enable the class mask template, including the Book-Class which I've also set. It is request if you could please make changes that I've made from the sandbox myself. Thanks. JJ98 (Talk / Contributions) 20:09, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done -- WOSlinker (talk) 15:24, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request regarding new subproject

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please make it possible for editors to add a subproject banner for Wikipedia:WikiProject National Football League/Referees subproject. For the image, please use File:Terry McAulay at Super Bowl 43.jpg (I couldn't figure out how to link to it without displaying the pic instead). Thank you. AutomaticStrikeout 04:17, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've added it to the sandbox. Let me know if that's ok & I'll copy it over to the live template. -- WOSlinker (talk) 20:23, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It looks good, but there needs to be a subproject importance scale as well. AutomaticStrikeout 00:02, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
