WikiProject Cities

(Rated Template-Class)

Template

This template does not require a rating on the project's quality scale.

[edit] Examples to follow for development of this template

{{WPBiography}}

[edit] Category names

I think we should prefix the category names with WikiProject Cities. This way we can have all the articles separated for quick review by project members. In the banner, where there is a wikilink for the rating, I think we should link to X-Class WikiProject Cities articles vs. X-Class articles. Thoughts? Alan.ca 19:52, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Priority option broken

Could someone fix the priority option, it seems not to be working. Alan.ca 20:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clarification

Being a newbie I would like to see more explanation of what all the elements and parameters mean and how they interact; possibly with examples of usage. JimScott 15:52, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please fix this template

This template does not appear to be putting the new C-class articles into the proper category. It puts them into the Unassessed category, not Category:C-Class WikiProject Cities articles. Dr. Cash (talk) 18:18, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I've made a fixed for this at Template:WPCities/Sandbox. Please ask a sysop to copy and paste the contents of the sandbox onto this template, because it is currently protected. bsrboy (talk) 19:06, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] importance=NA

I propose that the importance grade NA be added to the template. It is the most appropriate assessment category for categories for instance. __meco (talk) 10:45, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] upgrade to WPBM

{{edit protected}} Would like to upgrade this template to WPBM, have worked up a test template at {{WPCities/Sandbox}}.

Question: Is there a way to designate the name for the auto assessment category, i.e., "Automatically assessed WikiProject Cities articles", instead of "Automatically assessed Cities articles"? Thanks --Funandtrvl (talk) 00:05, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, it's |AUTO_ASSESS_CAT but I'm not sure why it isn't documentated. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 00:35, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you! The test template is updated and ready for implementation...I hope! --Funandtrvl (talk) 01:03, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Done. Let me know if anything is not working as expected. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:24, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Table of contents issue?

Unless I'm completely losing it, I can't figure out why {{WPCities}} is causing the ToC to not show up at Talk:Montreal. Here's it without the template: [1]; and here's it with the template (even with me attempting to forcetoc): [2]. Any ideas what I'm missing here? user:J aka justen (talk) 20:46, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
