Usage

When you create or find a new page within the scope of WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles please add any of the following to the top of its talk page:

{{WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles |class= |importance= }}

{{WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles |class= |importance= |needs-taxobox= |needs-image= |needs-audio= |needs-map= |attention= |listas= }}

{{WikiProject Amphibians and Reptiles
|class         = 
|importance    = 
|needs-taxobox = 
|needs-image   = 
|needs-audio   = 
|needs-map     = 
|attention     = 
|listas        = 
}}

Unused parameters may be omitted.

Optional parameters

• 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:Amphibian and reptile articles needing attention.
• class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, category, disambig, draft, file, portal, project, template, 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 Richard Owen, use |listas=Owen, Richard so that the talk page will show up in the O's and not the R'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-audio – set |needs-audio=yes to request that an audio file(s) be included in this article to improve its quality.
  • This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested audio of animals.
• needs-image – set |needs-image=yes to request that a picture or pictures be included in this article to improve its quality.
  • This parameter populates Category:Amphibian and reptile articles needing images.
• needs-taxobox – set |needs-taxobox=yes to request that a taxobox be included in this article to improve its quality
  • This parameter populates Category:Missing taxobox.
• needs-map – set |needs-map=yes to request that a range map be included in the article to improve its quality.
  • This parameter populates Category:Amphibian and reptile articles needing range maps.
• 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.

Aliases

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