B-class checklist

Enables a B-class checklist. There are six official criteria (although some projects use five) that an article needs to satisfy in order to be classified as B-class. A checklist can provide a helpful aid for editors to show where an article needs improvement.

Syntax
{{#invoke:WikiProject banner|main ... |b1={{{b1|}}} |b2={{{b2|}}} |b3={{{b3|}}} |b4={{{b4|}}} |b5={{{b5|}}} |b6={{{b6|}}} }}

Required parameters

• The six B-Class criteria: b1, b2, b3, b4, b5, b6

Optional parameters

• B_DISPLAY_ON_START – if set to "yes", the checklist will be displayed on every Start-class article. The default behaviour is to only display on Start-class when one or more of the parameters b1-b6 have been filled in.
• B_MAIN_CAT – specifies a category to use when any of the checklist parameters are blank.
• B1_CAT to B6_CAT – specifies individual categories to use when the individual checklist parameters are blank or set to no.

Custom parameter names

The standard parameter names (i.e. b1, b2, etc.) should be passed as an alternative to any custom parameters (e.g. B-Class-1, B-Class-2, etc.). For example:

b1={{{B-Class-1|{{{b1|}}}}}}

If only the standard parameters are used, then eg: b1={{{b1|}}}, etc. is fine.

Collapsing task forces

By default, the list of task forces will be collapsed into a show/hide box if there are more than 5 task forces. You can configure this behaviour with the following parameters:

• TF_COLLAPSE – the threshold number of task forces for them to collapse, e.g. if |TF_COLLAPSE=3 then they will collapse whenever there are more than 3 task forces.
• TF_HEADER – the heading for the collapsed section. The default is Associated task forces:

To-do list

This enables a project to-do list or other similar list to be integrated into a project banner.

Syntax
|TODO_LINK = |TODO_TEXT = |TODO_TITLE = |TODO_EDITLINKS =

There are two main parameters, |TODO_LINK= and |TODO_TEXT=. Only one should be used at any time. If the to-do list is located on a different page then TODO_LINK should be used. However, if you've just got some text to include then you can use the TODO_TEXT option instead.

If you are using |TODO_LINK= and don't want to see the edit links at the top of the textbox, set TODO_EDITLINKS=no.

Example

{{#invoke:WikiProject banner|main |PROJECT = Tulips |listas={{{listas|}}} |NAME = The Tulip taskforce |IMAGE_LEFT = Tulipa suaveolens floriade to Canberra.jpg |TODO_LINK = Template:To do/to do |TODO_TITLE = WikiProject Tulips To-do }}

Quality/importance category intersection

This feature adds categories which combine quality and importance such as Category:Start-Class High-importance Kent-related articles. It has no visible output.

It takes the following parameters:

Required parameters

• QII_FORMAT – the format of the category names. The C, I and T are replaced by the class, importance and topic respectively. For example:
  • I C T, e.g. Category:Mid-importance B-Class Geology articles
  • C T of I, e.g. Category:C-Class Andhra Pradesh articles of Low-importance
  • C I T, e.g. Category:B-Class High-importance Pornography articles
  • C, I T, e.g. Category:Stub-Class, Top-importance Economics articles

Optional parameters

• QII_SUPPRESS_NA – can be set to yes to stop categories being added when either class or importance is "NA". These can also be set individually:
  • QII_SUPPRESS_NA_CLASS – can be set to yes to stop categories being added when class=NA
  • QII_SUPPRESS_NA_IMPORTANCE – can be set to yes to stop categories being added when importance=NA
• QII_UNASSESSED_APPENDIX – text to append to the class when it is "Unassessed", e.g. |QII_UNASSESSED_APPENDIX=-Class
