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

{{WikiProject London |class= |importance= }}
{{WikiProject London |class= |importance= |clean-up= |london-districts-task-force= |public_art= |public_art-importance= |needs-photo= |listas= }}
{{WikiProject London
|class                       = 
|importance                  = 
|clean-up                    = 
|london-districts-task-force = 
|public_art                  = 
|public_art-importance       = 
|needs-photo                 = 
|listas                      = 
}}

Unused parameters may be omitted.

Optional parameters

[edit source]
  • 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.
  • clean-up – set |clean-up=yes if the article requires clean-up to conform to the Manual of Style and other guidelines
  • 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 Richard Whittington, use |listas=Whittington, Richard so that the talk page will show up in the W's and not the R'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.
  • london-districts-task-force – set |london-districts-task-force=yes if the article is supported by the London districts task force.
  • public_art – set |public_art=yes if the article is supported by the public art task force.
  • needs-photo – set |needs-photo=yes to mark the page as needing a photograph
  • 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.

Assessment

[edit source]

Quality

[edit source]

An article's quality assessment is recorded using the |class= parameter in the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Articles that have the {{WikiProject London}} banner template on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.

The following standard grades may be used to describe the quality of mainspace articles (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):

FA (for featured articles only; adds them to the FA-Class London-related articles category) File:Featured article star.svg FA
FL (for featured lists only; adds them to the FL-Class London-related articles category) File:Featured article star.svg FL
A (for articles that passed a formal peer review only; adds them to the A-Class London-related articles category) File:Symbol a class.svg A
GA (for good articles only; adds them to the GA-Class London-related articles category) File:Symbol support vote.svg GA
B (for articles that satisfy all of the B-Class criteria; adds them to the B-Class London-related articles category) B
C (for substantial articles; adds them to the C-Class London-related articles category) C
Start (for developing articles; adds them to the Start-Class London-related articles category) Start
Stub (for basic articles; adds them to the Stub-Class London-related articles category) Stub
List (for stand-alone lists; adds them to the List-Class London-related articles category) List
NA (for any other pages where assessment is unwarranted; adds them to the NA-Class London-related pages category) NA
??? (articles for which a valid class has not yet been provided are listed in the Unassessed London-related articles category) ???

For non-mainspace content, the following values may be used:

FM (for featured media only; adds them to the FM-Class London-related pages category) File:Featured article star.svg FM
Category (for categories; adds them to the Category-Class London-related pages category) Category
Draft (for drafts; adds them to the Draft-Class London-related pages category) Draft
File (for files and timed text; adds them to the File-Class London-related pages category) File
Portal (for portal pages; adds them to the Portal-Class London-related pages category) Portal
Project (for project pages; adds them to the Project-Class London-related pages category) Project
Template (for templates and modules; adds them to the Template-Class London-related pages category) Template

The following non-standard assessment grades for mainspace content may be used at a WikiProject's discretion:

Disambig (for disambiguation pages; adds them to the Disambig-Class London-related pages category) Disambig
Redirect (for redirect pages; adds them to the Redirect-Class London-related pages category) Redirect

Importance

[edit source]

An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject London}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject London|importance=???}}

The following values may be used for the importance parameter to describe the relative importance of the article within the project (see Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Priority of topic for assessment criteria):

Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance London-related articles)  Top 
High (adds articles to Category:High-importance London-related articles)  High 
Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance London-related articles)  Mid 
Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance London-related articles)  Low 
NA (adds articles to Category:NA-importance London-related articles)  NA 
??? (articles for which a valid importance rating has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unknown-importance London-related articles)  ???
