Template:WikiProject Transport

Template documentation

This is the WikiProject banner template used by WikiProject Transport to keep track of articles within its scope. All articles are categorised into Category:WikiProject Transport articles.

Basic usage

Place this on the talk page of relevant articles:

{{WikiProject banner shell |class= |
{{WikiProject Transport |importance= }}
}}

Full usage

It is usual to remove any unused parameters from the template call.

{{WikiProject banner shell |blp= |class= |listas= |
{{WikiProject Transport |class= |importance= |attention= |maritime= |maritime-importance= |category= }}
}}

Parameters

• importance – see #Importance assessment below.
• category – set |category=no if, and only if, a banner is being used for demonstration or testing purposes, to prevent unnecessary or undesirable categorization. Otherwise, omit this parameter.

Notes and alerts

• attention – set |attention=yes if 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:Transport articles needing attention.

Task forces

• maritime – set |maritime=yes if the article is supported by the Maritime task force. This parameter populates Category:maritime transport task force articles. This parameter populates the relevant subcategory of Category:maritime transport task force articles by quality based on the |class= parameter in the banner shell.
• maritime-importance – This parameter sets the importance of the article according to the Maritime task force. It populates the relevant subcategory of Category:maritime transport task force articles by importance. See #Importance assessment for valid values.

Deprecated parameters

• listas – this parameter should be used with the banner shell template, not on individual project banners. Please see Template:WikiProject banner shell for details.
• class – this parameter should be used with the banner shell template, not on individual project banners. See WP:PIQA for more details.
