Template:WikiProject Tennessee/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a documentation subpage for Template:WikiProject Tennessee (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

[edit] Usage

This template categorizes pages using assessment and importance grades through built-in transclusion. An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the {{WikiProject Tennessee}} banner on its talk page. This template should be transcluded and not substituted (subst:) because it employs conditional code. Transclusion also allows easy updating of all the Project's talk pages without having to edit hundreds of pages.

To use this template, copy the following code and place it on an article talk page:

{{WikiProject Tennessee |class= |importance= }}

The class and importance parameters are ratings of the article's quality and relative importance to Tennessee. See the Project's assessment page for more details.

[edit] Other parameters

  • listas=X — applies a sort key, where X is the term to be used. For more information, see DEFAULTSORT.
  • nested=yes — for use with {{WikiProjectBannerShell}}.
  • small=yes — makes the template small and along the right side of the page (as opposed to at the top).
  • attention=yes — the article needs immediate attention
  • reassess=yes — request a reassessment for this article
  • merge=yes — the article is a candidate for merge action with one or more other articles
  • needs-infobox=yes — the article needs an infobox (places in category only)
  • peer-review=yes — request a peer review for this article
  • old-peer-review=yes — peer review is complete and archived
