Usage
Project banner
{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Navigation}} The {{WikiProject Aviation}} project banner template should be added (not subst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has some optional ones that add extra features to the banner. The full syntax is as follows:
{{WikiProject Aviation |class= |attention= |imageneeded= |needs-infobox= |A-Class= |collaboration-candidate= |current-collaboration= |past-collaboration= |peer-review= |old-peer-review= |small= <!-- B-Class checklist --> | b1 <!--Referencing & citations--> = <yes/no> | b2 <!--Coverage & accuracy --> = <yes/no> | b3 <!--Structure --> = <yes/no> | b4 <!--Grammar & style --> = <yes/no> | b5 <!--Supporting materials --> = <yes/no> <!-- Portals --> |portal= <!-- Task forces (general topics) --> |Accident= |Aircraft= |Airlines= |Airports= |Air-sports= |Biography= |Defunct= |Engines= |Gliding= |Rotorcraft= }}
General parameters
- class – valid values are listed in the custom class mask. See the project's quality scale for details. B-class checklist (available only when
|class=stub
|class=start
|class=c
or|class=b
):- B-Class-1 – Referencing and citation (see the project's B-class criteria for details).
- B-Class-2 – Coverage and accuracy (see the project's B-class criteria for details).
- B-Class-3 – Structure (see the project's B-class criteria for details).
- B-Class-4 – Grammar and style (see the project's B-class criteria for details).
- B-Class-5 – Supporting materials (see the project's B-class criteria for details).
- Set these to "yes" or "y" if the article meets the criterion; "no" or "n" if it does not. If the criterion has not been checked, omit the parameter or leave it with a blank value.
- attention – set
|attention=yes
if the article needs immediate attention from experienced editors. Use only if another parameter does not cover the need for attention.- This parameter populates Category:Aviation articles needing attention.
- infobox – set
|infobox=yes
if the article needs an infobox. Remember that infoboxes are not suitable for all articles, and can overwhelm short articles.- This parameter populates Category:Aviation articles needing infoboxes.
A-Class=
"pass", "fail", or "current" indicates the status of the article's A-Class review; see the review department for more details.

- small – set
|small=yes
to display a small version of the template aligned along the right side of the page (as opposed to at the top). This parameter does not work as expected if the banner template is enclosed in Script error: No such module "Template link general". or any of its redirects. - 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 Reinhard Heydrich, use
|listas=Heydrich, Reinhard
so that the talk page will show up in the H's and not the R's of the various assessment and administrative categories; similarly, for topics with titles beginning with an article such as "the" or "a" - e.g. for The Airscrew Company, use|listas=Airscrew Company, The
so that the talk page will show up in the A's). 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.
It is not required if another WikiProject template on the same page has its own|listas=
set, since it not only affects categories used by the banner in which it is set, but it also affects the sortkey of all other banners and templates. - 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 parameters
|b1=
to|b5=
are recognised as aliases for|B-Class-1=
to|B-Class-5=
. If both|B-Class-1=
and|b1=
are present,|b1=
is ignored; similarly for the other four pairs.
