[edit] Project banner

The {{WPARAB}} 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:

{{WPARAB
|small=
|nested=
|class=
|auto=
|A-Class= 
|peer-review= 
|old-peer-review= 
|attention= 
|needs-infobox=
<!-- B-Class checklist -->
<!-- 1. It is suitably referenced, and all 
major points are appropriately cited. -->
|B-Class-1=
<!-- 2. It reasonably covers the topic, and 
does not contain major omissions or inaccuracies. -->
|B-Class-2=
<!-- 3. It has a defined structure, including 
a lead section and one or more sections of content. -->
|B-Class-3=
<!-- 4. It is free from major grammatical errors. -->
|B-Class-4=
<!-- 5. It contains appropriate supporting materials, 
such as an infobox, images, or diagrams. -->
|B-Class-5=
<!-- Portals -->
|portal1-name=
|portal1-link=
|portal2-name=
|portal2-link=
|portal3-name=
|portal3-link=
|portal4-name=
|portal4-link=
|portal5-name=
|portal5-link=
}}

General parameters:

  • 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.
  • nested – "yes" if the banner is being used in conjunction with {{WikiProjectBannerShell}}.
  • 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.
  • A-Class – indicates the status of the article's A-Class review, if any; see the review department for more details.
  • peer-review – "yes" if the article is currently listed for peer review by the project; see the review department for more details.
  • old-peer-review – "yes" if the article was previously listed for peer review by the project; see the review department for more details.
  • attention – "yes" if the article requires immediate attention; see Category:Arab world articles needing attention for more details on when this should be used.
  • needs-infobox – "yes" if the article needs an infobox added or updated.

B-Class checklist (available only for articles rated as "Stub-Class", "Start-Class", or "B-Class"—see the assessment department for more details):

Portals:

  • portalX-name – if the article has been selected for use on a portal, the name of that portal. The name should be given without any formatting or namespace prefixes; thus, Portal:Morocco is given as "|portal1-name=Morocco". Up to five different portals may be specified, via the parameters portal1-name through portal5-name.
  • portalX-link – the portal subpage location where the article may be found on the corresponding portal. This should be given as a pure unlinked subpage name; thus, Portal:Morocco/Selected event/3 is given as "|portal1-link=Selected event/3".

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