About the template
The {{WikiProject Islands}}
template adds article talk pages, category talk pages, template talk pages, etc. (whatever it is placed on) to Category:WikiProject Islands articles. It is also used to track article classifications and presents readers with a current "to do" list.
How to use this template
- The template always goes onto Talk pages, not article pages. The template must be transcluded and not substituted (using subst).
- The template accepts one optional parameter.
- The following fixed values denote the "article quality" as decided upon at WP:ISLANDS. Passing one of these values as the parameter places the Talk page into the applicable category which is scanned by Mathbot to create the Wikipedia Version 1.0 article lists.
- If the attached article is a featured article, use {{WikiProject Islands|FA}}
- If the attached article is a good article, use {{WikiProject Islands|GA}}
- If the attached article is A-Class, use {{WikiProject Islands|A}}
- If the attached article is B-Class, use {{WikiProject Islands|B}}
- If the attached article is Start-Class, use {{WikiProject Islands|Start}}
- If the attached article is Stub-Class, use {{WikiProject Islands|Stub}}
- If any other value is supplied as the parameter (such as "template", "category", or even an incorrect lower case "start") the parameter is presumed to be a word describing what sort of page it is. Use this if the attached article is not in the main space (it's a category, project page, etc.). For example:
- {{WikiProject Islands|category}} outputs "This category is part of ..."
- The following fixed values denote the "article quality" as decided upon at WP:ISLANDS. Passing one of these values as the parameter places the Talk page into the applicable category which is scanned by Mathbot to create the Wikipedia Version 1.0 article lists.
For main space articles which have not yet been assessed, simply use {{WikiProject Islands}}. This default places the article in Category:Unassessed Islands articles, and doesn't change the wording of the template in any way.
