Usage
The ((WikiProject Mexico)) 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 Mexico
|importance= (Top, High, Mid, Low, NA)
|class= (FA, A, GA, B, C, Start, Stub, FL, List. For other ratings, leave it blank)
|attention=
|needs-image=
))
General parameters:
- class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, na (case-insensitive). See the project's quality scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave
|class=blank or omit the parameter. - importance – valid values are: top, high, mid, low, na (case-insensitive). See the project's importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave
|importance=blank or omit the parameter. - attention – set
|attention=yesif the article needs immediate attention from experienced editors. Use only if another parameter does not cover the need for attention; this should be used sparingly. It is strongly encouraged to also add a section to the talk page explaining what needs attention.- This parameter populates Category:Mexico articles needing attention.
- category – set
|category=noif, and only if, a banner is being used for demonstration or testing purposes, to prevent unnecessary or undesirable categorization. Otherwise, omit this parameter. - 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 Guillermo Franco, use
|listas=Franco, Guillermoso that the talk page will show up in the F's and not the G'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 List of Mexican artists, use|listas=Mexican artists, List ofso that the talk page will show up in the M'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.
If the article is using ((WikiProject banner shell)) then it is preferable to add|listas=to that template instead of a project banner template. Putting the parameter on more than one template is not required. - needs-image – set
|needs-image=yesto request that a picture or pictures be included in the article to improve its quality.- This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Mexico.
To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.
