Template:WikiProject Elements/doc

Usage

When you create or find a new page within the scope of WikiProject Elements please add any of the following to the top of its talk page:

{{WikiProject Elements |importance= }}

{{WikiProject Elements |GA= |importance= |isotope= |vital= |peer-review= }}

{{WikiProject Elements
|GA          = 
|importance  = 
|isotope     = 
|vital       = 
|peer-review = 
}}

Unused parameters may be omitted. This template automatically adds articles to Category:WikiProject Elements articles.

Optional 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.
• GA – set |GA=yes in addition to |class=a if the article has been listed as a good article under the good article criteria and is also rated as A-Class.
• importance – valid values are: top, high, mid, low, na (case-insensitive). See the importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |importance= blank or omit the parameter.
• isotope – set |isotope=yes if the page is also supported by the Isotope Taskforce.
  • This parameter populates the relevant subcategory of Category:chemical element isotope articles by quality based upon the |class= 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 Antoine Lavoisier, use |listas=Lavoisier, Antoine so that the talk page will show up in the L's and not the A'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.
• peer-review – set |peer-review=yes if the article is currently undergoing a peer review by WikiProject Chemistry.
  • This parameter populates Category:Requests for Chemistry peer review.
• vital – set |vital=yes if the article is a vital article.
  • This parameter populates Category:All Wikipedia vital articles in Science.
• 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.

Aliases

• The parameter |isotopes= is recognised as an alias for |isotope=. If both |isotope= and |isotopes= are present, there may be unexpected results.
