Usage
This template will display information about quality assessments. The template is generally used for the instructions on a WikiProject's "/Assessment" page.
Full syntax
The full syntax is as follows:
{{Assessment Class Summary
|banner=
|topic=
|extraparam=
}}
Parameters
|banner=(required) - the name of the WikiProject's project banner template, without the "Template:" prefix. This parameter is found in the banner name field. (Note: a template shortcut can also be used).
- For example:
|BANNER_NAME=Template:banner
|topic=(required) - set so that the quality categories are: "Food-Class topic articles". This parameter can be found in one of two places. By default, the topic field would equal the project field, or if it exists, the corresponding assessment category field.
- For example:
|PROJECT=topicor|ASSESSMENT_CAT=topic articles
|extraparam=(optional) - extra parameters to be passed over to the WikiProject's Banner, usually the name of a task force with a yes. This parameter is found in the corresponding task force field.
- For example:
|tf 1=extraparam=yes
Example
{{Assessment Class Summary
| banner = WikiProject Military history
| topic = biography (military)
| extraparam = Biography=yes
}}
Result:
An article's quality assessment is recorded using the |class= parameter in the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Articles that have the {{WikiProject Military history}} banner template on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.
