 | This WikiProject banner template uses Module:WikiProject banner, a meta-template for easily creating and maintaining project banners. Please report any errors or feature requests to Module talk:WikiProject banner. Information or warnings about the template are below:
|
 | The following categories are required for the banner to work correctly. Please either create these categories or adjust the banner so that they are not required. |
 | This is the template sandbox page for Template:WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth (diff). |
 | This template is used on approximately 3,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Please note: This template should be transcluded ({{WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth/sandbox}}) and not substituted (subst) because it employs conditional code. Transclusion also allows easy updating of all the Project's talk pages without having to edit hundreds of pages.
Usage edit
Place either of the following at the top of the talk page of related pages:
{{WikiProject WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth |class= |importance= |subproject= |needs-infobox= |attention= |listas= }}
{{WikiProject WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth
|class =
|importance =
|subproject =
|needs-infobox =
|attention =
|listas =
}}
Optional parameters edit
- 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:Dallas-Fort Worth articles needing attention.
- class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, na (case-insensitive). See the project's quality scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave
|class=blank or omit the parameter. - 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. - 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 Nolan Ryan, use
|listas=Ryan, Nolanso that the talk page will show up in the R's and not the N'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. - 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:Dallas-Fort Worth articles needing infoboxes.
- subproject – set this parameter to a non-blank value if the page should meet standards set by one of WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's subprojects. Values are as follows:
|subproject=culture– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's culture subproject|subproject=education– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's education subproject|subproject=history– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's history subproject|subproject=neighborhoods– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's neighborhood subproject|subproject=sports– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's sports subproject|subproject=structures– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's structure subproject|subproject=transportation– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's transportation subproject|subproject=companies– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's company subproject|subproject=people– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's biographical subproject|subproject=media– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's media subproject|subproject=geography– WikiProject Dallas-Fort Worth's physical geography subproject
- 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.
