Template:WikiProject Oceans/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template adds Category:WikiProject Oceans articles automatically to the Talk pages of articles where it is placed. Other categories may be added depending on the parameters selected. This template is a self-reference. Please add it to the article's talk page.

Usage[edit]

The {{WikiProject Oceans|class=|importance=}} project banner template should be added (not subst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has a number of optional ones that add various extra features to the banner. The full syntax is as follows:

{{WikiProject Oceans
 |class=  
 |importance=
 |attention=
 |needs-infobox=
}}

General parameters:

  • class – a rating of the article's quality; see the assessment department for more details.
    • FA - The article has reached Featured article status.
    • FL - The article has reached Featured list status.
    • A - Could be submitted as a Featured article candidate; probably could use some small updates to make it Featured quality.
    • GA - The article has reached Good article status.
    • B - 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.
    • Start - The article is more than a stub, but may lack some important aspects of the topic's discussion.
    • Stub - The article is a stub; it likely contains one of the Oceanography stub templates.
    • List - Article is a list which has yet to reach FL status.
    • NA - The page is not an article and should not be rated; it could be a template, image or category, for example.
  • importance – a rating of the article's importance; see the assessment department for more details.
    • Top
    • High
    • Mid
    • Low

To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.
