Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 16:37, 3 April 2019

This is a documentation subpage for Template:WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

When you create or find a new page within the scope of WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America please add any of the following to the top of its talk page:

{{WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America |class= |importance= }}

{{WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America |class= |importance= |attention= |anishinaabe= |small= |listas= }}

{{WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America
|class       = 
|importance  = 
|attention   = 
|needs-image = 
|anishinaabe = 
|small       = 
|listas      = 
}}

Unused parameters may be omitted. This template automatically adds articles to Category:WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America articles.

Parameters

• anishinaabe – set |anishinaabe=yes if the article is supported by WikiProject Anishinaabe.
  • This parameter populates Category:WikiProject Anishinaabe articles.
• attention – set |attention=yes if the article needs immediate attention from experienced editors. Use only if another parameter does not cover the need for attention; this should be used sparingly. It is strongly encouraged to also add a section to the talk page explaining what needs attention.
  • This parameter populates Category:Indigenous peoples of North America articles needing attention.
• class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, na (case-insensitive). See the project's quality scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |class= blank or omit the parameter.
• importance – valid values are: top, high, mid, low, na (case-insensitive). See the project's importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |importance= blank or omit the parameter.
• listas – This parameter, which is the equivalent of the DEFAULTSORT sortkey that should be placed on all biographical articles, is a sortkey for the article talk page (e.g. for Clifford Birdinground, use |listas=Birdinground, Clifford so that the talk page will show up in the B's and not the C's of the various assessment and administrative categories). This is important because it is one source used by those who set DEFAULTSORT on the article; consider also setting the DEFAULTSORT for the article when setting this parameter. For more information about this, please see Misplaced Pages:Categorization of people § Ordering names in a category.
  If the article is using {{WikiProject banner shell}} then it is preferable to add |listas= to that template instead of a project banner template. Putting the parameter on more than one template is not required.
• small – this parameter is no longer supported and can safely be removed from the template.
• category – set |category=no if, and only if, a banner is being used for demonstration or testing purposes, to prevent unnecessary or undesirable categorization. Otherwise, omit this parameter.
• needs-image – set |needs-image=yes to request that a picture or pictures be included in the article to improve its quality.
  • This parameter populates Category:Misplaced Pages requested images of indigenous peoples of North America.

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