Usage
The {{WikiProject Scouting}} 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 Scouting|importance=
|attention=
|needs-infobox=
|past-collaboration=
|past-selected=
|past-biography=
|GGGS-task-force=
|Philmont-task-force=
}}
General parameters:
- 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 = Top, High, Mid, or Low
- attention= yes if the article is in significant need of attention
- 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 Given Names Surname, use
|listas=Surname, Given Namesso that the talk page will show up in the S's and not the G'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. - past-collaboration = if this applies, add appropriate month/year in format: May 2007
- past-selected = if this applies, add appropriate month/year in format: May 2007
- past-biography = if this applies, add appropriate month/year in format: May 2007
- GGGS-task-force = yes if the article pertains specifically to Girl Guides or Girl Scouts
- Philmont-task-force = yes if the article pertains specifically to Philmont Scout Ranch
To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.
