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

This template is used on approximately 12,000 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

To add an article to the list, simply add the template to the talk page of the article with the following parameters:

{{WikiProject University of Oxford
 |class=XXX
 |importance=YYY
 |needs-infobox=
 |attention=
}}

class: Options are FA, FL, A, GA, B, C, Start, Stub, List, Cat, Template, NA. If blank, this will default as Unassessed. Descriptions of the options can be found at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment. NA is "not applicable", while Cat indicates a "Category". Template class is, perhaps unsurprisingly, used for templates!
importance: Options are Top, High, Mid, Low, NA. If blank, this will default as Unknown priority. NA is "not applicable". This is the importance within WikiProject University of Oxford according to this scale.
attention: Answer yes if the page needs immediate attention, otherwise remove this line.
needs-infobox: Answer yes if the article needs an infobox, otherwise remove this line.
auto: This parameter is for the use of bots.

Flag an article as being in need of urgent attention or an infobox

There are two additional parameters that can be used to mark an article as being in need of either urgent attention or the addition of a suitable infobox. Just add either "|attention=yes" or "|needs-infobox=yes" before the final "}}" at the end of the template.
