General parameters:
- class – a rating of the article's quality; see Wikipedia:WikiProject Heraldry and vexillology/Assessment for more details.
An article's quality assessment is generated from the class parameter in the {{WikiProject Heraldry and vexillology}} project banner on its talk page: {{WikiProject Heraldry and vexillology|class=???}}
The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):
FA (for featured articles only; adds articles to Category:FA-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | FA | |
A (adds articles to Category:A-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | A | |
GA (for good articles only; adds articles to Category:GA-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | GA | |
B (adds articles to Category:B-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | B | |
C (adds articles to Category:C-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | C | |
Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | Start | |
Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | Stub | |
FL (for featured lists only; adds articles to Category:FL-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | FL | |
List (adds articles to Category:List-Class heraldry and vexillology articles) | List |
For non-standard grades and non-mainspace content, the following values may be used for the class parameter:
See: Wikipedia:WikiProject Heraldry and vexillology/Assessment for the quality scale.
Maintenance parameters (answer yes to include them):
- attention - articles needing immediate attention.
- imageneeded - The article needs an image (other than a map); adds articles to Category:Heraldry and vexillology articles needing images.
- imagedetails (appears only if imageneeded is set to yes) - Additional details to describe the image that is requested.
- infoboxneeded - articles needing an infobox.
To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.
Notes
[edit]- Please use lowercase forms. E.g. imageneeded, imagedetails and yes. The uppercase forms generally do not work.
- A few redlink categories need fixing to get the Portal / Review functions working. The needed category tree can be seen under the WP:MILHIST project.
- Task forces are supported but this function has not been activated.
- The image request feature is listed "below the fold" when used. If people feel this is a problem, please let me know.
- Please report any other errors if you see them. Thanks! Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 15:44, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
