This template can be used to illustrate a user's contributions to an article over time by showing the changes in classification according to the quality scale.
Usage edit
Basic usage is {{user article progress|article|current classification}} followed by the previous classifications in ascending order.
The values for classification are those accepted by the {{class/icon}} template.
Examples:
{{user article progress|Wikipedia|GA}} may be used to imply this user is working on the Wikipedia article which is currently a good article:
{{user article progress|Wikipedia|GA|B}} used to show this user helped Wikipedia go from B to GA status:
Wikipedia · [-]
{{user article progress|Wikipedia|DGA|C|B|GA|}} implies this user helped Wikipedia grow from C to GA status, but then it lost GA status:
Wikipedia · [---]
Add |started=y to visualize that you created the article, as with {{user article progress|Wikipedia|GA|Start|C|B|started=y}}
Wikipedia · [→ --]
{{user article progress|Wikipedia|FA|Stub|Start|C|B|GA|A|started=y}} implies this user started the Wikipedia article as a stub, then helped it grow to featured article status:
Wikipedia · [
→ ----]
Note this template does not enforce any structure of order of classifications, nor does it output any intermediate classifications. For example, if you said the article went from class C to GA, only those two icons will be printed. You must specify the intermediate B classification manually.
Use the |style= parameter to add custom CSS styles, or |nostyle=y to remove the default monospace, bold styling.
