[edit] Usage

[edit] Project banner

The {{uk-crime}} 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:

{{uk-crime
|class= 
|auto=
|small=
|portal= 
|attention= 
|needs-infobox=
|A-Class= 
|peer-review= 
|old-peer-review= 
|collaboration-candidate= 
|past-collaboration=
|Australian-task-force= 
|Law-task-force=
}}

General parameters:

  • class – a rating of the article's quality; see the assessment department for more details.
  • auto – "yes" if the article has been automatically assessed; see the automation department for more details.
  • small – "yes" if the banner should be rendered in its miniature size; this should be used sparingly and only on crowded talk pages for the time being.
  • portal – if the article is used in the featured article queue of the Crime Portal, the subpage number of its entry.
  • attention – "yes" if the article requires immediate attention; see Category:British crime-related articles needing attention for more details on when this should be used.
  • needs-infobox – "yes" if the article needs an infobox added or updated.
  • A-Class – indicates the status of the article's formal review for A-Class status, if any; see the assessment department for more details.
  • peer-review – "yes" if the article is currently listed on the project's peer review department.
  • old-peer-review – "yes" if the article was previously listed on the project's peer review department.
  • collaboration-candidate – "yes" if the article is currently a candidate for the project's Collaboration of the Fortnight.
  • past-collaboration – if the article was previously a Collaboration of the Fortnight, the dash-separated dates of the collaboration period; must be left blank otherwise.

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