From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the WikiProject banner template used by WikiProject Appalachia to keep track of articles within its scope. All articles are categorised into Category:WikiProject Appalachia articles.

Basic usage[edit]

Place this on the talk page of relevant articles:
{{WikiProject Appalachia|class= |importance= }}

Full usage[edit]

It is usual to remove any unused parameters from the template call.
{{WikiProject Appalachia |class= |importance= |listas= |PR= }}

Parameters[edit]

  • 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. This is unnecessary for vast majority of editors
  • 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 John Smith, use |listas=Smith, John so that the talk page will show up in the Smith's and not the John's of the various assessment and administrative categories. Similarly, for topics with titles beginning with an article such as "the" or "a" - e.g. for The Matrix, use |listas=Matrix, The so that the talk page will show up in the Matrix's. 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. It is not required if another WikiProject template on the same page has its own |listas= set, since it affects the sortkey of all banners and templates.

  • importance – see #Importance assessment below.

Peer review[edit]

The PR parameter, when invoked, sets the peer review status of the article. An article's author or a major contributor can request a peer review, a process where a volunteer from our Peer Review Department conducts a thorough and comprehensive assessment of the article. That volunteer then assigns a peer review status to the article and comments on any inaccuracies or issues found. A confirmed peer reviewed article is considered by WikiProject Appalachia to be completely factual, neutral, and free from major flaws. This process is a great tool for any user preparing for a GA, FA, or FL review.

Parameter codes[edit]

  • Once they accept a request and commit to reviewing the article, a reviewer can set |prr=ur, |prrreviewer=~~~, and |urdate={{subst:today}} to mark the article as being under review. This parameter populates Category:Appalachia articles under peer review.
  • To place an article on hold (to give the author time to fix small issues found), a reviewer can set |prr=rh, delete |urdate=, and set |rhdate={{subst:today}}. This populates Category:Appalachia articles on review hold.
  • To endorse an article, a reviewer can set |prr=ppr, set |pprdate={{subst:today}}, delete |prrdate=, and delete |urdate= and/or |rhdate= if one or both exist. This populates Category:Peer reviewed Appalachia articles.

Upon the conclusion of a review, the reviewer should add the parameter |oldid= and include the revision id for which the review applied.

If an article has had multiple reviews:

  • If the article will not be an endorsed article and this is not its first review, the reviewer should use the above guidelines. The reviewer should then set |pastreviews=yes then fill out |result1=ppr or |result1=fr, |oldid1=, |reviewer1=, and |result1date= and if necessary repeat for |result2=, |oldid2=. Only apply numbers for non-current results, the current result is only under prr and oldid. Currently, this program can only handle one current and three old reviews. Should this prove insufficient, contact user:Dionysius Miller.
