[edit] About this template

This template is the project banner for WikiProject Louisiana.

The template is to be placed on talk pages (only) of the articles identified as being within the Project's scope (basically anything to do with the histories of science, technology, and medicine, as well as science studies, STS, etc.).

This template automatically assigns the category Category:WikiProject Louisiana articles to the articles' talk pages. This category and other associated WikiProject 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:

{{WikiProject Louisiana
  |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.
