This template combines talk page banners into a nested shell and/or displays a general quality assessment for an article. It was designed for WikiProject banners and will only work reliably with such templates. This template may be added to an article talk page with no WikiProject banners, but with a |class=
quality assessment value, in which case it will populate a general category such as Category:C-Class articles.
WikiProject assessment bots may change shell templates per this usage guideline when the bot is editing the talk page for other reasons. If local consensus on a talk page is to not follow this guideline, please specify |collapsed=yes
or |collapsed=no
explicitly to override the bots.

In February 2023, the Wikipedia community expressed strong support for supporting article quality assessments which are independent of WikiProjects.
Consensus was found to add a |class=
parameter to Template:WikiProject banner shell, which all projects would inherit. To avoid redundancy, the rating is only shown on the banner shell. Projects can choose to opt-out of this system by adding a particular parameter to their project banner template.
It is also possible to add a standalone banner shell template to an article without any WikiProjects.
All parameter are optional. However, one or both of |class=
and |1=
must be given.
Parameter | Notes |
---|---|
class | Adding a quality rating (e.g. Start, C, GA etc.) after |class= will cause the banner shell to display the quality rating for the article based on Wikipedia:Content assessment. This value will be available to the project banner templates, which may use it in forming categories like Category:Start-class Ruritania articles.
|
1 | Holds a list of WikiProject banners, each with their parameters. It is not necessary to pass the |class= value to the banners, which will use the value supplied to this template if relevant.
|
blp | |blp=yes or its alias |living=yes will display the {{BLP}} banner above the shell, detailing Wikipedia's official policies regarding biographies of living persons. This must be added for articles about living people.
|
blpo | |blpo=yes will display the {{BLP others}} banner above the shell. This should be used for articles where {{BLP}} does not apply directly to the subject, but which nevertheless have content that directly relates to other living persons. It is mutually-exclusive with |blp=yes .
|
activepol | |activepol=yes will display the {{Active politician}} banner above the shell.
|
listas | Sets the default sort key for the current page, e.g. |listas=Smith, John
|
collapsed | |collapsed=yes will cause the outer table to be collapsed, hiding even the project names. Explicitly adding |collapsed=no (the default) will cause the outer table to not be collapsed, showing the summary of the banners, and prevent any bots that might have logic that would cause them to assign a value of yes from doing so.
|
header | |header=Custom header text allows for the replacement of the default table title text ("This {{PAGETYPE}} is of interest to the following WikiProjects:") with whatever is supplied as its value.
