About this template[edit]
This template is the project banner for WikiProject Darts.
The template is to be placed on talk pages (only) of the articles identified as being within the project's scope (at or near the top of the talkpage).
This template automatically assigns the article's talk page to Category:WikiProject Darts articles. This category and other associated project categories are used in various ways by the project in the overall management of the project's workload.
Usage[edit]
General syntax options for this template are as follows:
{{WikiProject Darts|class=|importance=}}
The parameters are named, and (if used) must be entered exactly as-is (note, all are lowercase).
The class and importance parameters are associated with the project's article assessment and rating scheme. These parameters add the talk page to a category; which category depends on the values given.
Other parameters can be added to further classify the article and change the template's shape. Full syntax options for this template are as follows:
{{WikiProject Darts |class= |importance= |attention=}}
This template is completely compatible with Template:WikiProject banner shell and similar wrappers.
Parameter values[edit]
Quality class assessment[edit]
This optional parameter records the project quality assessment rating currently assigned to the particular article on whose talkpage the project banner appears.
If unassessed, or an invalid value is given, the parameter defaults to "unassessed" and the template places the talkpage into Category:Unassessed Darts articles.
Valid values for this parameter, their associated meanings and categories are given in the table below. Values should be typed as shown (e.g. |class=GA ):
| Value | Meaning | Category |
|---|---|---|
| FA | Featured-class articles; the article has passed through the featured article review process. | FA-Class Darts articles |
| A | A-class articles; could be submitted as a Featured article candidate; probably could use some small updates to make it Featured quality. | A-Class Darts articles |
| GA | Good-class articles; the article has passed through the good article review process. | GA-Class Darts articles |
| B | B-class articles; could be submitted as a Good article nominee; probably could use some updates or may lack some features from the Good article criteria, but it presents a good overview of the subject. | B-Class Darts articles |
| C | C-class articles; provides adequate coverage of the subject, but could still use a lot of work before being submitted as a good article nominee. | C-Class Darts articles |
| Start | Start-class articles; the article is more than a stub, but may lack some important aspects of the topic's discussion. | Start-Class Darts articles |
| Stub | Stub-class articles; the article is a stub; it likely contains one of the stub templates. | Stub-Class Darts articles |
| FL | Featured-class lists; the article has passed through the featured list review process. They are sorted with the featured articles. | FL-Class Darts articles |
| List | The article is a list that has not yet passed the featured list review process. | List-Class Darts articles |
| NA | Not applicable; the page is not an article and should not be rated; it could be an image or category, for example. | NA-Class Darts articles |
Importance (priority) assessment[edit]
The |importance=value parameter records the project's priority assessment rating currently assigned to the article. When this banner appears on the talk page of a non-article, no class value need be applied.
On an aritcle talk page, if the value is unassigned, an invalid value is given, or the class parameter is set to "NA", the parameter defaults to "unassigned" and the template places the talkpage into Category:Unknown-importance Darts articles.
Valid values for this parameter, their associated meanings and their categories are given in the table below. Values should be typed as shown (e.g. |importance=Mid):
| Value | Meaning | Category |
|---|---|---|
| Top | Topics that are among the most important, defining articles on darts. Examples include the main article on darts, vital equipment, international governing bodies and leagues/tours/associations, game rules, current world championships (overview article), this year's article on the world championships, current pro world champions. Top-importance articles are often selected for Wikipedia CD/DVD release. If the project has more than a dozen or so Top-importance articles, consider moving some to High-importance. | Top-importance Darts articles. |
| High | Topics that are of certain but not crucial importance in darts. Examples include former pro world champions, pro world championship top-16 contenders, current amateur world champions, major international events (overview articles), high-profile dedicated venues, game variants, detailed stand-alone articles on aspects of darts. | High-importance Darts articles |
| Mid | Articles that are reasonably important in darts. Examples include national-class players/teams below world championship level, major national events (overview articles). | Mid-importance Darts articles |
| Low | Article of limited importance in darts. Examples include previous years' annual event articles, and marginally notable players/teams, venues, events, etc. Media (TV shows, films, books, etc.) relating to darts usually also fall into this assessment level (for this project - a film, etc., project might rate the article higher). | Low-importance Darts articles |
Attention parameter[edit]
The optional |attention=yes parameter marks the article as needing immediate attention and shows this on the banner, and it also adds the article to Category:Darts articles needing attention. This parameter should be used if the article is in very bad condition.
Example[edit]
The most common usage for new articles (other than stubs, which would use |class=Stub instead):
{{WikiProject Darts|class=Start|importance=Low}}
Which renders as:
 | Darts NA‑class Low‑importance | |||||||||
| ||||||||||
