 | This template is used on approximately 218,000 pages.

The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template is the project banner for WikiProject Canada and can also act as a banner for several of its child-projects. (Other banners exist for related projects like {{WikiProject Canadian football}} and {{WikiProject Canada Roads}}.)
The template is to be placed on talk pages (only) of the articles identified as being within the Project's scope (at or near the top of the talkpage).
This template automatically assigns the category Category:WikiProject Canada articles to the articles' talk pages. This category and other associated Project categories are used in various ways by the Project in the overall management of the Project's workload.
This template contains optional parameters, details of usage are given below.
General syntax options for this template are as follows:
{{WikiProject Canada |class= |importance=}}
The parameters are named, and (if used) must be entered exactly as-is (note, all are lowercase).
The class and importance parameters are associated with the Project's article assessment and rating scheme. These parameters add a category to the talkpage, which category depends on the values chosen.
Other parameters can be added to further identify the article or change its shape. Full syntax options for this template are as follows:

This optional parameter records the Project quality assessment rating currently assigned to the particular article on whose talkpage the project banner appears.
If unassigned, or an invalid value is given, the parameter defaults to "unassigned" and the template places the talkpage into Category:Unassessed Canada-related articles.
Valid values for this parameter, their associated meanings and categories are given in the table below. Values should be typed as shown (e.g. |class=GA ):
| Value | Meaning | Category |
|---|---|---|
| FA | Featured-class articles; the article has passed through the featured article review process. | FA-Class Canada-related articles |
| A | A-class articles; could be submitted as a Featured article candidate; probably could use some small updates to make it Featured quality. | A-Class Canada-related articles |
| GA | Good-class articles; the article has passed through the good article review process. | GA-Class Canada-related articles |
| B | B-class articles; could be submitted as a Good article nominee; probably could use some updates or may lack some features from the Good article criteria, but it presents a good overview of the subject. | B-Class Canada-related articles |
| C | C-class articles; provides adequate coverage of the subject, but could still use a lot of work before being submitted as a good article nominee. | C-Class Canada-related articles |
| Start | Start-class articles; the article is more than a stub, but may lack some important aspects of the topic's discussion. | Start-Class Canada-related articles |
| Stub | Stub-class articles; the article is a stub; it likely contains one of the stub templates. | Stub-Class Canada-related articles |
| FL | Featured-class lists; the article has passed through the featured list review process. They are sorted with the featured articles. | FL-Class Canada-related articles |
| List | The article is a list that has not yet passed the featured list review process. | List-Class Canada-related articles |
| Category | Category-class articles | Category-Class Canada-related articles |
| Template | Template-class articles | Template-Class Canada-related articles |
| NA | Not applicable; the page is not an article and should not be rated; it could be an image or category, for example. | NA-Class Canada-related articles |
This optional parameter records the Project priority assessment rating currently assigned to the particular article on whose talkpage the project banner appears.
If unassigned, or an invalid value is given, or the class parameter is set to "NA", the parameter defaults to "unassigned" and the template places the talkpage into Category:Unknown-importance Canada-related articles.
Valid values for this parameter, their associated meanings and categories are given in the table below. Values should be typed as shown (e.g. |importance=Mid ):
| Value | Meaning | Category |
|---|---|---|
| Top | Reserved for the primary articles. These are considered fundamental to the topic and are mostly overview articles with many links, like Geography of Canada and Manitoba. | Top-importance Canada-related articles |
| High | Major topic about Canada, such as Prime Minister of Canada, or CBC; and for needed subtopics of "key" articles | High-importance Canada-related articles |
| Mid | For general articles on more specialised (sub-)topics; most articles about Canadian topics go here, such as Greater Napanee, Clarity Act, or Stompin' Tom Connors. | Mid-importance Canada-related articles |
| Low | For still notable, but more highly specialised or even obscure topics; people or things that are only notable in one small region or for a short amount of time; includes most backbench MPs. | Low-importance Canada-related articles |
The template can also be used to add an article to one of WikiProject Canada's workgroups. Adding any of these parameters will put the article in assessment categories for both WikiProject Canada and the project selected, using the same quality and importance for both.
