Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used on approximately 63,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

Usage

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

{{WikiProject banner shell | class = | listas = |
{{WikiProject Cricket | importance = }}
}}

{{WikiProject Cricket | importance = | attention = | image-needed = | logo-needed = | ICC = | Women's = | Africa = | Americas = | Asia = | EAP = | Europe = | Somerset = | formerFA = | formerFL = }}

{{WikiProject Cricket
 | importance =
 | attention =
 | image-needed =

 | ICC =
 | Women's =
 | Africa =
 | Americas =
 | Asia =
 | EAP =
 | Europe =
 | Somerset =
 | formerFA =

}}

Unused parameters should be omitted.

Parameters

Basic parameters

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.
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:Cricket articles needing attention.
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.
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 Jos Butler, use |listas=Butler, Jos so that the talk page will show up in the B's and not the J'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 Wikipedia: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.
image-needed – set |image-needed =yes to request that an image or photograph be added to the page.
- The parameter |logo-needed= is recognised as an alias for |image-needed=. If both |image-needed= and |logo-needed= are present, |logo-needed= is ignored.
- This parameter populates Category:Wikipedia requested images of cricket.
