[edit] Usage

To add an article to the list, simply add the template to the talk page of the article with the following parameters:

 {{WikiProject Energy  |class=XXX  |importance=YYY  |needs-infobox=  |attention= }} 

• class: Options are FA, A, GA, B, C, Start, Stub, List, Cat, Template, Image, NA. If blank, this will default as Unassessed. Descriptions of the options can be found at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment. NA is "not applicable".
• importance: Options are Top, High, Mid, Low, NA. If blank, this will default as Unknown priority. NA is "not applicable". This is the importance within energy according to this scale.
• attention: Answer yes if the page needs immediate attention, otherwise remove this line.
• needs-infobox: Answer yes if the article needs an infobox, otherwise remove this line.
• auto: This parameter is for the use of bots.
