Usage

To avoid needlessly cluttering up talk pages, it is usually appropriate to remove any unused parameters when placing the template on an article's talk page. A common initial configuration for the template includes the following basic parameters:

{{WikiProject Apple Inc. |class= |importance=}}

The following example contains all possible parameters. Again, it is usually appropriate to delete any unused parameters.

{{WikiProject Apple Inc.|class= |importance= |needs-image= |ib= |screenshot= |listas= |category=}}

Legend

• class – valid values are fa, a, ga, b, c, start, stub, fl, list, category, disambig, draft, file, portal, project, template, na (case-insensitive). See the project's quality scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |class= blank or omit the parameter.
• importance – valid values are listed in the custom importance mask. See the project's importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |importance= blank or omit the parameter.
• needs-image – set |needs-image=yes if the article needs an image.
  • This parameter populates Category:Apple Inc. articles needing images.
• needs-infobox – set |needs-infobox=yes to mark the page as needing an infobox.
  • This parameter populates Category:Apple Inc. articles needing an infobox.
• screenshot – set |screenshot=yes if the article needs a screenshot.
  • This parameter populates Category:Apple Inc. articles needing screenshot.
• listas – This parameter, which is the equivalent of the DEFAULTSORT sortkey that should be placed on all biographical articles, is a sortkey for the article talk page (e.g. for Steve Jobs, use |listas=Jobs, Steve so that the talk page will show up in the J's and not the S's of the various assessment and administrative categories). This is important because it is one source used by those who set DEFAULTSORT on the article; consider also setting the DEFAULTSORT for the article when setting this parameter. For more information about this, please see Wikipedia:Categorization of people § Ordering names in a category.
  If the article is using {{WikiProject banner shell}} then it is preferable to add |listas= to that template instead of a project banner template. Putting the parameter on more than one template is not required.
• auto – This parameter is for the use of bots and indicates that the article has been automatically rated:
  • |auto=length – based on the length of the article
  • |auto=inherit – because one or more other projects use this class
  • |auto=yes (or |auto=stub), in conjunction with |class=stub – as Stub-Class because it uses a stub template
    • Use of the above values (or value combinations) with this parameter populates Category:Automatically assessed Apple Inc. articles.
• category – set |category=no if, and only if, a banner is being used for demonstration or testing purposes, to prevent unnecessary or undesirable categorization. Otherwise, omit this parameter.

Aliases

• The parameters |needs-photo= and |photo= are recognised as aliases for |needs-image=. If more than one is present, |needs-photo= has precedence over |photo=, and |needs-image= has precedence over both of the others: parameters with lower precedence are ignored.

• The parameter |ib= is recognised as an alias for |needs-infobox=. If both |needs-infobox= and |ib= are present, |ib= is ignored.

Notes

• This template adds articles to Category:WikiProject Apple Inc. articles.
