Template talk:WikiProject Islands

Template-protected edit request on 28 May 2019

Because the WikiProject is now inactive, please change the first line of code in this template from:

{{WPBannerMeta

to

{{WPBannerMeta/inactive

My test of the change is in Template:WikiProject Islands/sandbox.

Thanks! UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:50, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

 Done One editor has signed up to the WikiProject in 17 February 2019‎, however, the WikiProject talk page has had no non-automated edits (there are a very few) and one MfD notice. I would say that this meets the requirements for inactivity on a WikiProject. Furthermore, the project has been tagged as inactive for over a year (since May 2018) and this has not been contested. If an editor disagrees and wants to make the project active again, please ping me and I will self-revert this change. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 ^{talk to me | my contributions} 20:57, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

@Dreamy Jazz: Can you please review this edit - see request that was left at my talk page [1] - Evad37 [talk] 08:36, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

For the record I had asked Evad37 as to the instance of why and how to change - I have been dealing with many island project tags for islands in the Pilbara and Kimberley projects for Western Australia - and the state of the project tag means that it is (the project assessment) rendered un-usable for assessment with the Rater system - I would like to have the opportunity to restart the project so its assessment system can continue, thanks.

JarrahTree, self-reverted as you want to restart the project. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 ^{talk to me | my contributions} 15:52, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

Proposing adding needs attention and needs infobox parameters to the Islands template

The Wikiproject Island template it does not have the needs infobox parameter to build a maintenance category for flagging the need of infoboxes across island articles. I'm proposing to help coordinate this maintenance task to add the parameters "needs infobox" and "needs attention" as outlined below which would make the template function more consistent with other geo wikiproject templates. It would allow for mass identification of articles in the Islands category and coordinated tackling of the missing infoboxes.

Propose adding parameters with categories (similar to Wikiproject Lakes, Rivers and Mountains):

|attention={{{attention|}}} |ATTENTION_CAT = Islands articles needing attention |infobox={{{needs-infobox|}}} |INFOBOX_CAT = Islands articles needing infoboxes

Ready for feedback on the sandbox upgrade the Island WikiProject Banner to current WikiProject banner features for flagging - photo, attention, importance, needs infobox and more. Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk) 18:23, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
