Template:WikiProject Schools/doc
Usage
The {{WikiProject Schools}} template adds an article's talk page to Category:WikiProject Schools articles and its subcategories. Please place this template onto relevant articles' talk pages. This template should be transcluded and not substituted (using {{subst:}}) because it employs conditional code. Transclusion also allows easy updating of all of the Project's talk pages without having to edit thousands of pages.
The template also employs several optional data field parameters as described below. For an example of how the template will appear under various parameter circumstances, please see Template:WikiProject Schools/Examples.

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

importance:
|
Top | The Wikipedia 1.0 Topic Importance Scale values; the NA value should be used for all non-article pages (files, redirects, templates, categories, disambiguation pages, etc.), or if left blank this will produce a status of Unknown importance.

High | |||
Mid | |||
Low | |||
NA | |||
needs‑infobox:
|
yes / no | Answer yes if the article needs an infobox so it will be automatically added to Category:School articles without infoboxes or no if the correct infobox template is already used | |
category: hide-auto-cats:
|
yes / no | Enable/disable automatic inclusion in project maintenance categories. All values except no are interpreted as yes .
| |
auto:
|
yes / stub / inherit / length | Sets the method by which the auto-assessment bot will attempt to rate the article. Stub looks for stub templates in the article's wikicode and only rates articles when one is found; inherit copies the values from other WikiProject banner templates on the talk page (oldest first); length applies a crude formula to guess the quality based simply on the size of its wikicode. Set to yes to try all methods and leave blank to disable auto-assessment altogether. | |
listas:
|
plain text | Manually set the article's sortkey (name by which it's alphabetized in categories and lists | |
move:
|
plain text | If specified, provides a link to move the page to place specified by parameter. This parameter should be the name that the page should be moved to without the namespace. So, for the talk page of "School Name" the parameter would be "move=School Name (Municipality, Region/State)" (e.g. For an article named Council High School (Idaho), specify the parameter move=Council High School (Council, Idaho)) | |

- ^ For example, this image of the Battle of Normandy is grainy, but very few pictures of that event exist. However, where quite a number of pictures exist, for instance, the moon landing, FPC attempts to select the best of the ones produced.
- ^ An image has more encyclopedic value (often abbreviated to "EV" or "enc" in discussions) if it contributes strongly to a single article, rather than contributing weakly to many. Adding an image to numerous articles to gain EV is counterproductive and may antagonize both FPC reviewers and article editors.
- ^ While effects such as black and white, sepia, oversaturation, and abnormal angles may be visually pleasing, they often detract from the accurate depiction of the subject.
