Unused parameters may be omitted.

Optional parameters

• attention – set |attention=yes if the article needs immediate attention from experienced editors. Use only if another parameter does not cover the need for attention; this should be used sparingly. It is strongly encouraged to also add a section to the talk page explaining what needs attention.
  • This parameter populates Category:Ancient Egypt articles needing attention.
• 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: top, high, mid, low, na (
  case-insensitive). 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.
• listas – This parameter, which is the equivalent of the
  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.
• needs-infobox – set |needs-infobox=yes if the article needs an infobox. Remember that infoboxes are not suitable for all articles, and can overwhelm short articles.
  • This parameter populates Category:Ancient Egypt articles needing infoboxes.
• religion – set |religion=yes if the article is supported by Egyptian religion work group.
  • This parameter populates Category:Egyptian Religion work group articles, and the relevant subcategory of Category:Egyptian Religion articles by quality based upon the |class= parameter.
  • religion-importance (only used if |religion=yes is set; uses the same values as |importance=) – Importance rating within Egyptian religion work group
    • This importance rating populates the relevant subcategory of Category:Egyptian Religion articles by importance.
• 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.
