This is the {{WikiProject Systems}} template which is used to categorize and assess articles within the Systems WikiProject.
To classify an article, place the template {{WikiProject Systems}} on the article's talk page. Anyone can add a WikiProject Systems rating or change an existing rating. The template can be used to assess the importance (or priority) and quality (or class grading) of the article using the importance and class parameters respectively. Specifying these parameters will place the article in the appropriate subcategory of Category:Systems articles by importance and Category:Systems articles by quality. There is also a field parameter to define the subject area of the article.
The (reduced) syntax of the WikiProject Systems template is:
{{WikiProject Systems
|class=
|importance=
|field=
}}
- class must be one of:
- FA (for Featured Articles only)
- A (for A-class articles only)
- GA (for Good Articles only)
- B
- Start
- Stub
- Disambig (systems disambiguation pages)
- Cat (Systems categories)
- Template (Systems templates)
- importance must be one of:
- Top
- High
- Mid
- Low
- NA (for non-articles only)
- The synonym priority is also available for the importance parameter.
- field must be one of:
- chaos theory
- cybernetics
- control theory
- dynamical systems
- enterprise modelling
- operations research
- project management
- scientific modeling
- social systems theory
- software engineering
- systems
- systems biology
- systems ecology
- systems engineering
- systems psychology
- systems theory (general information about Systems theory not related to a particular field)
- visualization
Comments may be left in the /Comments subpage of the article talk page (for example, Talk:Abacus/Comments). These brief comments usually contain suggestions on how the article could be improved to bring it up to the next grade. It is helpful to at least put ~~~~ as a comment, so that the date of the rating can easily be seen. Comments can be added by following the "Add comments" link on the template, and may edited by following the "Comments" link on the template.
If either class or importance is missing, then the article will be placed in Category:Unassessed quality Systems articles or Category:Unassessed importance Systems articles respectively. If field is missing, then the article will be placed in Category:Unassessed field Systems articles.
