Mathematics C‑class High‑priority

This article is within the scope of WikiProject Mathematics, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of mathematics on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks.MathematicsWikipedia:WikiProject MathematicsTemplate:WikiProject Mathematicsmathematics articles C This article has been rated as C-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale. High This article has been rated as High-priority on the project's priority scale. Additional information: /  This was a selected article on the Mathematics Portal. Shortcut: [[{{{shortcut}}}]]

This WikiProject banner template uses Module:WikiProject banner, a meta-template for easily creating and maintaining project banners. Please report any errors or feature requests to Module talk:WikiProject banner. Information or warnings about the template are below: The 2 notes in this template will automatically collapse if more than one of them is activated. To change this setting, set or update the |COLLAPSED= parameter. This banner template includes a link to Portal:Mathematics, and the accompanying image is File:Nuvola apps edu mathematics blue-p.svg. See the instructions on how to change this. Automatic parameter checking is enabled and pages with invalid parameters can be found in the tracking category.

Usage

This template is used to categorize and assess articles within WikiProject Mathematics. To classify an article, place the template {{WikiProject Mathematics}} on the article's talk page and fill in the |class= and |priority= parameters.

Please do not simply add this template without filling in the parameters. The purpose of this template is to carry article assessment data.

Anyone can add a maths rating or change an existing rating. These parameters will place the article in the appropriate subcategories of Category:Mathematics articles by priority and Category:Mathematics articles by quality.

Syntax overview

When using this template, please set both of these parameters:

• |class= choose one of: FA, FL, GA, A, B, C, Start, Stub, List or NA. (e.g. |class=B)
• |priority= choose one of: Top, High, Mid, Low or NA. (e.g. |priority=High)

The following parameters are also available. In general, if you don't know what they mean then you don't need them.

• |portal=Y for an article that is a selected articleonPortal:Mathematics.
• |category=no if the template is being used as a demonstration and you do not want the page it is on to be added to any categories.
• |shortcut= adds a custom wikilink within the project banner within the format "Shortcut: [[value]]"; must be a valid page name on this wiki, including the namespace if not in normal articlespace, but without the paired square brackets at both ends.

Standard template syntax

{{WikiProject Mathematics
 | class    = <!--FA, FL, GA, A, B, Start, Stub, List or NA-->
 | priority = <!--Top, High, Mid, Low or NA-->
<!--Optional or special-purpose-->
 | portal   = <!--set to Y to place the article in Category:Featured articles on Mathematics Portal-->
 | category = <!--set to "no" to prevent the template from adding categories to a page-->
 | shortcut = <!--set to valid page name on this wiki to add a link to it within the banner template on this page-->
}}

Syntax details

The main purpose of this template is to show the classifications of articles on their talk pages, as well as to place talk pages in the appropriate categories. Only the first three parameters are required for this. However, other flags can be used to show additional information and categorize the page further.

The template also supports a |importance= parameter which functions identically to |priority=, except for causing the template to display the word 'importance' in the place that it typically displays 'priority.' Beyond that, there is no reason to use one over the other, and still even less reason to use both simultaneously. If they are both used, the |importance= parameter will be ignored. If the |priority= parameter is called but given no value—if |priority= appears as it does here, with no argument—then the parser considers this a valid declaration of |priority= to a null value and will ignore |importance= even if it has an explicit value, except when assigning categories.
