[edit] About this template
This template is the project banner for WikiProject Science Fiction.
The template is to be placed on talk pages (only) of the articles identified as being within the Project's scope (at or near the top of the talkpage).
This template automatically assigns the category Category:WikiProject Science fiction to the articles' talk pages. This category and other associated Project categories are used in various ways by the Project in the overall management of the Project's workload.
This template contains optional parameters, details of usage are given below.
[edit] Usage instructions
General syntax options for this template are as follows:
{{Science Fiction Project
|class=
|importance=
|type=
}}
The parameters are named, and (if used) must be entered exactly as-is (note, all are lowercase).
The class and importance parameters are associated with the Project's article assessment and rating scheme. These parameters add a category to the talkpage, which category depends on the values chosen.

This optional parameter records the Project quality assessment rating currently assigned to the particular article on whose talkpage the project banner appears.

If unassigned, or an invalid value is given, or the class parameter is set to "NA", the parameter defaults to "unassigned" and the template places the talkpage into Category:Unknown-importance science fiction articles.
Valid values for this parameter, their associated meanings and categories are given in the table below. Values should be typed as shown (eg |importance=Mid ):
| Value | Meaning | Category |
