![]() | Some of the assessment categories required for UK geography do not currently exist, and should to be created to avoid redlinks appearing on talk pages. Alternatively, you may need to set or update the |ASSESSMENT_CAT= parameter in this template.
|
![]() | The following categories are required for the banner to work correctly. Please either create these categories or adjust the banner so that they are not required. |

Basic usage
Place this on the talk page of relevant articles:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{WikiProject UK geography |class= |importance= }}</syntaxhighlight>Full usage
It is usual to remove any unused parameters from the template call.<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{WikiProject UK geography |category= |listas= |class= |importance= |needs-infobox= |photo= |map= |pop= |2009= }}</syntaxhighlight>Parameters
- 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. - listas – this parameter, which is the equivalent of the DEFAULTSORT sortkey that should be placed on all biographical articles, is a sortkey for the article talk page (e.g. for John Smith, use
|listas=Smith, John
so that the talk page will show up in the Smith's and not the John's of the various assessment and administrative categories. Similarly, for topics with titles beginning with an article such as "the" or "a" - e.g. for The Matrix, use|listas=Matrix, The
so that the talk page will show up in the Matrix's. This is important because it is one source used by those who set DEFAULTSORT on the article; consider also setting the DEFAULTSORT for the article when setting this parameter. For more information about this, please see Wikipedia:Categorization of people#Ordering names in a category. It is not required if another WikiProject template on the same page has its own {{para|listas}} set, since it affects the sortkey of all banners and templates. - class – see #Quality assessment below.
- importance – see #Importance assessment below.
Notes and alerts
- 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:UK geography articles needing infoboxes. - photo – to request that an image or photograph be added to the page.
- photo – specify the location of the requested image. Will be categorised into Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in LOCATION, where LOCATION is the value of the
|photo=
paramater. If no location is specified then Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in the United Kingdom is used by default. - map – set
|map=yes
or any non-blank value other than "no", "n" or "0". The following message will be displayed: "This article needs a map." This will populate Category:WPUKgeo articles without maps. - pop – set
|pop=yes
or any non-blank value other than "no", "n" or "0". The following message will be displayed: "This article needs census data." This will populate Category:WPUKgeo articles without population data.
Task forces
- 2009 – set
|2009=yes
if the article is supported by the 2009 local government structural changes task force. This parameter populates Category:2009 local government structural changes task force articles.
