[edit] Tagging articles

Any article related to this task force should be marked with "sf-task-force=yes" to the {{NovelsWikiProject}} project banner at the top of its talk page (see the project banner instructions for more details on the exact syntax). This will automatically place it into Category:Science fiction novels task force articles.

The resulting code is usually:

{{NovelsWikiProject
|class=
|importance=
|sf-task-force=yes
}}

[edit] To-do
