Wikipedia:WikiProject Law Enforcement/Templates and awards

On this page you will find the templates, user boxes and awards of the Law Enforcement Wikiproject.

Templates and userboxes

For our project banner

The project banner heads the talk page of every article in the Law Enforcement Wikiproject, while the mechanics of the banner itself are somewhat complicated, using it is fairly simple. Instructions for adding ratings to an article, such as Good Article or Stub class, are found on the assessment subpage, and to highlight an article for a peer review, see the peer review subpage.

To place this banner, type:

• {{WikiProject Law Enforcement}}

For our stub notice

A stub is an article that is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of the subject, but not so short as to provide no useful information. To qualify as a stub it must at least define the meaning of the article's title.

If the article does not define the meaning of the article's title, type:

• {{law-enforcement-stub}}

For our member banner

While many users prefer the userbox, we nonetheless created a membership banner

To place this banner, type:

• {{Lawenforcementmember}}

For our userbox

The userbox is the standard method by which a user shows that he or she is part of the Law enforcement wikiproject. We strongly prefer that users who join his project take the userbox or membership banner to help identify them.

This user is a participant in WikiProject Law Enforcement.

To place this userbox, simply type:

• {{User WikiProject Police}}

For Our Project "ad"

This Project has a Wikipedia "Banner Advert" to help with recruiting new members to our WikiProject.

Wikipedia ads	file info – #149

To place our Wikipedia Ad on your user or user talk pages simply type:

• {{Qxz-ads|ad=149}}

For our bulletin board

The Bulletin board is found on the main project page, serving as an easy way for project leaders to get messages and requests out to the community, if you so wish, you can place the bulletin board on your userpage so you don't need to visit the project page to see the news.

To place the project's bulletin board, type:

• {{Lawenforcementbulletinboard}}

Project awards

At the current moment in time, the Law Enforcement Wikiproject has the mainstream achievement award, which comes in three levels, helpful, excellent and outstanding, and one barnstar. It is up to the awarder to decide what level the actions of another user warrants, though we stress that the outstanding award should be reserved for exceptional contributions over a long period of time. We hope to introduce more awards as the projects grows.

When placing the award, the user can either use the standard accompanying message, or write his or her own specific for the recipients actions.
