Template:WikiProject Visual arts

File:Test Template Info-Icon - Version (2).svg Template documentation

This is the WikiProject banner template used by WikiProject Visual arts to keep track of articles within its scope. All articles are categorised into Category:WikiProject Visual arts articles.

Basic usage

Place this on the talk page of relevant articles:

{{WikiProject banner shell |class= |
{{WikiProject Visual arts }}
}}

Full usage

It is usual to remove any unused parameters from the template call.

{{WikiProject banner shell |class= |listas= |blp= |
{{WikiProject Visual arts |auto= |attention= |needs-infobox= |needs-image= |public-art= |rockwell= |category= }}
}}

Parameters

• 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.

Notes and alerts

• auto – this parameter is for the use of bots and indicates that the article has been automatically rated:
  • length – based on the length of the article;
  • inherit – because one or more other projects use this class;
  • yes or stub (in conjunction with |class=stub) – as Stub-Class because it uses a stub template.
  Use of the above values with this parameter populates Category:Automatically assessed Visual arts 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:Visual arts articles needing attention.
• needs-infobox – set |needs-infobox=yes if the article needs an infobox. Remember that infoboxes are not suitable for all articles, and can overwhelm short articles. This parameter populates Category:Visual arts articles needing infoboxes.
• needs-image – to request that an image or photograph be added to the page.

Task forces

• public-art – set |public-art=yes if the article is supported by the public art task force. This parameter populates Category:Public art articles. This parameter populates the relevant subcategory of Category:public art articles by quality based on the |class= parameter.
• rockwell – set |rockwell=yes if the article is supported by the Norman Rockwell task force. This parameter populates Category:Norman Rockwell task force articles. This parameter populates the relevant subcategory of Category:Norman Rockwell articles by quality based on the |class= parameter.

Deprecated parameters

• listas – this parameter should be used with the banner shell template, not on individual project banners. Please see Template:WikiProject banner shell for details.
