 | This template is used on approximately 74,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
Please note: This template should be transcluded ({{WikiProject United Kingdom}}) and not substituted (subst.), because it employs conditional code. Transclusion also allows easy updating of all the Project's talk pages without having to edit thousands of pages. {{WPUK}} and {{WikiProject UK}} both redirect to the main template.
When you create or find a new page within the scope of WikiProject United Kingdom please add any of the following to the top of its talk page:{{WikiProject United Kingdom |class= |importance= }}
{{WikiProject United Kingdom |class= |importance= |needs-infobox= |needs-photo= |politics= |Politics of the United Kingdom-importance= |attention= |listas= }}
{{WikiProject United Kingdom
|class =
|importance =
|needs-infobox =
|needs-photo =
|politics =
|Politics of the United Kingdom-importance =
|attention =
|listas =
}}
Optional parameters
- attention – set
|attention=yesif 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:United Kingdom articles needing attention.
- 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. - 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 Winston Churchill, use
|listas=Churchill, Winstonso that the talk page will show up in the C's and not the W'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-infobox – set
|needs-infobox=yesif the article needs an infobox. Remember that infoboxes are not suitable for all articles, and can overwhelm short articles.- This parameter populates Category:United Kingdom articles needing infoboxes.
- needs-photo – set
|needs-photo=yesto request that a picture or pictures be included in this article to improve its quality.- This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in the United Kingdom.
- politics – set
|politics=yesif the page is under the stewardship of WikiProject Politics of the United Kingdom.- Politics of the United Kingdom-importance (only used if
|politics=yesis set; uses the same values as|importance=) – Importance rating within this taskforce- This importance rating populates the relevant subcategory of Category:Politics of the United Kingdom articles by importance.
- Politics of the United Kingdom-importance (only used if
- auto – This parameter is for the use of bots and indicates that the article has been automatically rated:
|auto=length– based on the length of the article|auto=inherit– because one or more other projects use this class|auto=yes(or|auto=stub), in conjunction with|class=stub– as Stub-Class because it uses a stub template- Use of the above values (or value combinations) with this parameter populates Category:Automatically assessed United Kingdom articles.
- category – set
|category=noif, and only if, a banner is being used for demonstration or testing purposes, to prevent unnecessary or undesirable categorization. Otherwise, omit this parameter.
