Template:WikiProject London Transport/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:WikiProject London Transport.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is used on approximately 3,300 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template should be added to the talk page of any article on a subject related to the London Transport WikiProject.

Usage

Basic usage will produce the banner at the top of this page but without quality scale and importance scale ratings indicated:
{{WikiProject London Transport}} or {{WPLT}}.

With quality and importance ratings included:
{{WikiProject London Transport | class= | importance= }} or {{WPLT | class= | importance= }}

Optional parameters

class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, na (case-insensitive). 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.
importance – valid values are: top, high, mid, low, na (case-insensitive). See the project's importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |importance= 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 Albert Stanley, use |listas=Stanley, Albert so that the talk page will show up in the S's and not the A'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.
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.

Aliases

The parameter |Underground= is recognised as an alias for |class=. If both |class= and |Underground= are present, |Underground= is ignored.

The parameter |LT-importance= is recognised as an alias for |importance=. If both |importance= and |LT-importance= are present, |LT-importance= is ignored.

The parameter |LUL-importance= is recognised as an alias for |LT-importance=. If both |LT-importance= and |LUL-importance= are present, |LUL-importance= is ignored.
- The use of any of these aliases is deprecated.
