Guidelines
Tagging and assessment
Any articles that are within the scope of this project should be tagged with the project banners of WikiProject Computing. You may also find {{WikiProjectBanners}} useful. To each of these banners, you should add |hardware=yes
as this will automatically put the page in the appropriate categories, such as Category:Computer hardware articles. Also consider adding |hardware-importance=xxx
at the same time with xxx
matching (or different in your assessment) the |importance=xxx
entry already present. Otherwise once the |hardware=yes
is added the importance entry gets set to unknown.
{{WikiProject Computing |class= |importance= |hardware=yes |hardware-importance= }}
