Usage

edit

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

{{WikiProject Sports |class= }}
{{WikiProject Sports |class= |listas= }}
{{WikiProject Sports
|class      = 
|listas     = 
}}

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

Optional parameters

edit
  • 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.
  • 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 James Brendan Connolly, use |listas=Connolly, James Brendan so that the talk page will show up in the C's and not the J'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.
  • facilities or venues – Set this parameter to yes to indicate that the page is within the scope of WP:WikiProject Sports/Facilities and venues task force (e.g. is an arena or stadium article).
  • 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.
