Usage
editThe {{WikiProject Palestine}} project banner template should be added (not subst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. This template automatically adds articles to Category:WikiProject Palestine articles. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has some optional ones that add extra features to the banner. The full syntax is as follows:
{{WikiProject Palestine
|class=
|importance=
|attention=
|needs-image=
|merge=
|listas=
|category=
}}
Parameters
edit- class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, 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. - 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:Palestine-related articles needing attention.
- needs-image – set
|needs-image=yesif the article needs an image.- This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in the Palestinian territories.
- image-details – (appears only if
|needs-image=yesis set) Additional details to describe the image that is requested.
- merge – set
|merge=yesif the article is a candidate for merge action with one or more other articles.- This parameter populates Category:Palestine-related articles needing merge action.
- merge-article – (appears only if
|merge=yesis set) Additional details to describe the article that needed to be merge.
- 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 Yasser Arafat, use
|listas=Arafat, Yasserso that the talk page will show up in the A's and not the Y'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. - 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.
To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.
