Template documentation | This template is used on approximately 174,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This page holds the custom class mask for the Template:WikiProject Lists. It uses {{class mask}}, a template for constructing class masks according to individual WikiProjects' wishes.

Classification of redirects
If the WikiProject banner is placed on the talk page of a redirect (in any namespace) and the class parameter is not defined, then the page will automatically be classified as Redirect-class and placed in Category:Redirect-Class List articles.
Classification based on namespace
In addition, if class is empty, undefined or unrecognized, then the class will be deduced from the namespace of the page when possible.
