This template automatically assigns the category Category:WikiProject Catholicism articles to the articles' talk pages. This category and other associated Project categories are used in various ways by the Project in the overall management of the Project's workload.
This template contains optional parameters, details of usage are given below.
Usage instructions
General syntax options for this template are as follows:
{{WikiProject Catholicism
|importance=
|attention=
|Canon= <!-- or |canon= -->
|needs-infobox=
|needs-photo=
}}
The parameters are named, and (if used) must be entered exactly as-is (note, all are lowercase).
Parameter values
Class
- class – This WikiProject follows Project-Independent Quality Assessment. Please add valid
|class=values to {{WikiProject banner shell}} instead of this WikiProject. Valid class values can be found at Wikipedia:Content assessment.
Importance
- 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.
An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject Catholicism}} project banner on its talk page:
{{WikiProject Catholicism|importance=???}}
The following values may be used for the importance parameter to describe the relative importance of the article within the project (see Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Priority of topic for assessment criteria):
| Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance Catholicism articles) | Top | |
| High (adds articles to Category:High-importance Catholicism articles) | High | |
| Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Catholicism articles) | Mid | |
| Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance Catholicism articles) | Low | |
| NA (adds pages to Category:NA-importance Catholicism pages) | NA | |
| ??? (articles for which a valid importance rating has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unknown-importance Catholicism articles) | ??? |
Optional
- Canon – set
|Canon=yesif the article is supported by the Catholic canon law task force.- This parameter populates Category:Catholic canon law articles, and the relevant subcategory of Category:Catholic canon law articles by quality based upon the
|class=parameter. - This parameter uses
|importance=to populate the relevant subcategory of Category:Catholic canon law articles by importance.
- This parameter populates Category:Catholic canon law articles, and the relevant subcategory of Category:Catholic canon law articles by quality based upon the
- 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:Catholicism articles needing attention.
- needs-infobox – set
|needs-infobox=yesif the article needs an infobox. Remember that infoboxes are not suitable for all articles, and can overwhelm short articles.- This parameter populates Category:Catholicism articles needing infoboxes.
- needs-photo – set
|needs-photo=yesto mark the page as needing a photograph.- This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested photographs of Catholicism.
- auto – This parameter is for the use of bots and indicates that the article has been automatically rated:
|auto=length– based on the length of the article|auto=inherit– because one or more other projects use this class|auto=yes(or|auto=stub), in conjunction with|class=stub– as Stub-Class because it uses a stub template- Use of the above values (or value combinations) with this parameter populates Category:Automatically assessed Catholicism articles.
- 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 John Doe, use
|listas=Doe, Johnso that the talk page will show up in the D's and not the J's of the various assessment and administrative categories). 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. - 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.
Aliases
- The parameter
|canon=is recognised as an alias for|Canon=. If both|Canon=and|canon=are present,|canon=is ignored.
