This template is of interest to the following WikiProjects: |
 | This template is used on approximately 9,610,000 pages, or roughly 16% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | This template uses Lua: |
 | This template uses TemplateStyles: |
 | This template is used by the standard installation of AutoWikiBrowser (AWB). If you are planning to make any major changes to this template, how it should be used, or nominate it for deletion, please notify AWB's users and maintainers beforehand at Wikipedia talk:AWB as a courtesy. |
 | This template is used by one or more bots.
If you intend to change this template in any significant way, move or nominate it for deletion, please inform the bot operators. Thank you. The relevant bots are: cewbot. |
Usage
This template combines talk page banners into a nested shell and displays a general quality assessment for an article. It was designed for WikiProject banners and will work reliably only with such templates. This template may be added to an article talk page with no WikiProject banners, but with a |class= quality assessment value, in which case it will populate a general category such as Category:C-Class articles.
WikiProject assessment bots may change shell templates per this usage guideline when the bot is editing the talk page for other reasons. If local consensus on a talk page is to not follow this guideline, please specify |collapsed=yes or |collapsed=no explicitly to override the bots.

Project-independent quality assessments
In February 2023, the Wikipedia community expressed strong support for article quality assessments that are independent of WikiProjects.
Consensus was found for adding a |class= parameter to Template:WikiProject banner shell, which all projects would inherit. To avoid redundancy, this rating is then shown only on the banner shell. Projects can choose to opt-out of this system by adding the parameter |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom to their project banner template.
It is also possible to add a standalone banner shell template to an article without any WikiProjects, for example {{WikiProject banner shell | class=start}}
Cewbot will regularly maintain {{WikiProject banner shell}}.
Parameters
All parameters are optional.
| Parameter | Notes |
|---|---|
| class | Adding a quality rating (e.g. Start, C, GA etc.) after |class= will cause the banner shell to display the quality rating for the article based on Wikipedia:Content assessment. This value will be available to the project banner templates, which may use it in forming categories like Category:Start-class Ruritania articles.
|
| vital | If |vital=yes then the module will check subpages of Wikipedia:Vital articles/data to see if the article is a vital article. If so, then it will display a message and link to the relevant sublist of vital articles.
|
| 1 | Holds a list of WikiProject banners, each with their parameters. It is not necessary to pass the |class= value to the banners, which will use the value supplied to this template if relevant.
|
| blp | |blp=yes or its alias |living=yes will display the {{BLP}} banner above the shell, detailing Wikipedia's official policies regarding biographies of living persons. Set to |blp=no for dead persons. This parameter must be added for biographical articles.
|
| blpo | |blpo=yes will display the {{BLP others}} banner above the shell. This should be used for articles where {{BLP}} does not apply directly to the subject, but which nevertheless have content that directly relates to other living persons. It is mutually-exclusive with |blp=yes.
|
| activepol | |activepol=yes will display the {{Active politician}} banner above the shell.
|
| listas | Sets the default sort key for the current page, e.g. |listas=Smith, John
|
| collapsed | |collapsed=yes will cause the outer table to be collapsed, hiding even the project names. Explicitly adding |collapsed=no (the default) will cause the outer table to not be collapsed, showing the summary of the banners, and prevent any bots that might have logic that would cause them to assign a value of yes from doing so.

Limitations and bugs
Pages where expansion depth is exceeded issue: This "shell template" adds to the "expansion depth" of the page. In certain circumstances, it can cause the page to exceed the limit. If this happens, find out which enclosed template is already "near the limit" and notify the WikiProject responsible for that template that there is an issue. Include details, as some WikiProject templates only get "close to the limit" with uncommon combinations of parameters. (Example report)
