[edit] Project banner

The {{WPMILHIST}} project banner template should be added (not subst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has a number of optional ones that add various extra features to the banner. Note that task force parameters have two versions: a long form ("Fooish-task-force=") and a short form ("Fooish="), which are completely interchangeable. Note also that the template accepts "Y" or "y" instead of "yes" and "N" or "n" instead of "no". The full syntax is as follows:

General parameters:

• small – "yes" if the banner should be rendered in its miniature size; this should be used sparingly and only on crowded talk pages for the time being.
• class – a rating of the article's quality; see the assessment department for more details.
• A-Class – indicates the status of the article's A-Class review, if any; see the review department for more details.
• peer-review – "yes" if the article is currently listed for peer review by the project; see the review department for more details.
• old-peer-review – "yes" if the article was previously listed for peer review by the project; see the review department for more details.
• no-task-force – "yes" if no existing task force includes the article in its scope.

B-Class checklist (available only for articles rated as "Start-Class" or "B-Class", and must be completed to allow a "B-Class" rating—see the assessment department for more details):

• B-Class-1 (or B1) – "yes" if the article meets criterion #1 for B-Class status; "no" if it does not.
• B-Class-2 (or B2) – "yes" if the article meets criterion #2 for B-Class status; "no" if it does not.
• B-Class-3 (or B3) – "yes" if the article meets criterion #3 for B-Class status; "no" if it does not.
• B-Class-4 (or B4) – "yes" if the article meets criterion #4 for B-Class status; "no" if it does not.
• B-Class-5 (or B5) – "yes" if the article meets criterion #5 for B-Class status; "no" if it does not.

Portals:

• portalX-name – if the article has been selected for use on a portal, the name of that portal. The name should be given without any formatting or namespace prefixes; thus, Portal:Italian Wars is given as "|portal1-name=Italian Wars". Up to five different portals may be specified, via the parameters portal1-name through portal5-name.
• portalX-link – the portal subpage location where the article may be found on the corresponding portal. This should be given as a pure unlinked subpage name; thus, Portal:Italian Wars/Selected event/3 is given as "|portal1-link=Selected event/3".
