Template:WikiProject Basketball/doc

Usage

This template {{WikiProject Basketball|class=}} add articles to WikiProject Basketball articles. This template is a self reference. Place this on the talk page of relevant articles:

Basic

{{WikiProject Basketball |class= }}

Full

{{WikiProject Basketball 
 |class=
 |auto=
 |listas=
 |category=
 |women=
}}

Parameters

• class – valid values are listed in the custom class mask. See the project's quality scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |class= blank or omit the parameter.
• listas – This parameter, which is the equivalent of the DEFAULTSORT sortkey that should be placed on all biographical articles, is a sortkey for the article talk page (e.g. for Michael Jordan, use |listas=Jordan, Michael so that the talk page will show up in the J's and not the M's of the various assessment and administrative categories). This is important because it is one source used by those who set DEFAULTSORT on the article; consider also setting the DEFAULTSORT for the article when setting this parameter. For more information about this, please see Wikipedia:Categorization of people § Ordering names in a category.
  If the article is using {{WikiProject banner shell}} then it is preferable to add |listas= to that template instead of a project banner template. Putting the parameter on more than one template is not required.
• women – set |women=yes if the article is supported by the Women's basketball task force.
  • This parameter populates Category:Women's basketball task force articles, and the relevant subcategory of Category:Women's basketball articles by quality based upon the |class= parameter.
• auto – This parameter is for the use of bots and indicates that the article has been automatically rated:
  • |auto=length – based on the length of the article
  • |auto=inherit – because one or more other projects use this class
  • |auto=yes (or |auto=stub), in conjunction with |class=stub – as Stub-Class because it uses a stub template
    • Use of the above values (or value combinations) with this parameter populates Category:Automatically assessed Basketball articles.
• 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.
