[edit] Usage

The {{WikiProject Baronetcies}} project banner template should be added (not subst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has a number of optional ones that add various extra features to the banner. The full syntax is as follows:

General parameters:

class – a rating of the article's quality; see Wikipedia:WikiProject Baronetcies/Assessment for more details. Valid values are:
- FA - The article has reached Featured article status.
- A - Could be submitted as a Featured article candidate; probably could use some small updates to make it Featured quality.
- GA - The article has reached Good article status.
- B - Could be submitted as a Good article nominee; probably could use some updates or may lack some features from the Good article criteria, but it presents a good overview of the subject.
- Start - The article is more than a stub, but may lack some important aspects of the topic's discussion.
- Stub - The article is a stub; it likely contains one of the baronetcy stub templates.
- NA - The page is not an article and should not be rated; it could be a template, image or category, for example.
- Needed - The article does not yet exist but has been identified as a subject that should be covered.
- List - The article is a list or gallery of flags or coats of arms (or similar), probably with very little text.

Maintenance parameter (set it to "yes" to include it):

imageneeded - The article needs an image (other than a map); adds articles to Category:Baroetcies articles needing images.
- imagedetails (appears only if imageneeded is set to yes) - Additional details to describe the image that is requested.

To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters from the template.

[edit] Notes

Please use lowercase forms. E.g. imageneeded, imagedetails and yes. The uppercase forms generally do not work.
A few redlink categories need fixing to get the Portal / Review functions working. The needed category tree can be seen under the WP:MILHIST project.
Task forces are supported but this function has not been activated.
The image request feature is listed "below the fold" when used. If people feel this is a problem, please let me know.
Please report any other errors if you see them. Thanks! Kittybrewster 10:11, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
