Wikipedia:WikiProject Philosophy/Templates

Portal Pointer

{{portalpar|Philosophy|Socrates.png}} adds a box which leads to the philosophy portal. It looks like this:

Philosophy Portal

It should appear at the bottom of each philosophy article, immediately before the categories list.

Task Box

{{PhilosophyTasks}} will add the Philosophy WikiProject task list to a page. To add a pretty boxed version, use {{PhilosophyTasksBox}} instead. (Note: Both are case-sensitive.)

This list is regularly updated by participants, and is used for reporting pages that need attention. If you find such a page, feel free to edit Template:PhilosophyTasks to add it to the list. Please add items to the task list by placing them at the top of the list. You may also remove items from the bottom of the list if it is too long.

If you wish to place the box on your own User or User_talk page, it would be much appreciated. (Keep in mind that the box is currently auto-justified to the right.)

Project pages

Putting {{philosophy}} at the top of a page will add this notice to it:

	Philosophy Portal This article is within the scope of the WikiProject Philosophy, which collaborates on articles related to philosophy. To participate, you can edit this article or visit the project page for more details.
???	This article has not yet received an importance rating on the importance scale.

Template documentation available from Wikipedia:WikiProject Philosophy/Project banner

This message should be placed at the top of the talk pages of all philosophy articles, especially:

• articles that members of the WikiProject are actively trying to improve.
• articles about major philosophical topics.
• articles that need special attention. (In this case, you should also add the article name to the Philosophy WikiProject task list. You can view a list of these articles by clicking on What links here on the template page.)

The banner will automatically add the attached article to Category:WikiProject Philosophy articles.

This template is also used for article classification (usage instructions). Do not subst it!

Philosopher Infobox

Putting the text found at {{Infobox Philosopher}} at the top of a biographical page will add a box for basic biographical information. This infobox is primarily a navigation tool. See the discussion at Template talk:Infobox Philosopher for more information. One of the goals of the Philosophers task force is to make sure each philosopher article has one.

Collaboration of the month

{{PhilCOTW}} will add the Template:PhilCOTW template to the page. This is how it looks:

It is added to the top of the discussion page of the current collaboration of the month. To have your page listed, just add it to the list of articles at Template talk:PhilosophyTasks/vote.

(The W in PhilCOTW stands for Week. The collaborations used to be weekly programs, but perhaps philosophers need more time to think, so it was changed to a monthly program.)
