This template is used on ೨೨,೭೦,೦೦೦+ pages, or roughly 1607% 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. |
Because the {{WikiProject Biography}}
template is used on over one million pages and that it puts a big strain on the servers every time it is updated (see the job queue), the template is currently protected and can be edited only by template editors and administrators.
If you would like to propose a change to this template:
- If the changes are significant, then discuss it on the talk page first.
- Test the changes in the Template:WikiProject Biography/sandbox and then request an edit to the template on the talk page.
Usage
[ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ]Please note: This template should be transcluded as {{WikiProject Biography}}
and not substituted, because it employs conditional code. Transclusion also allows easy updating of all the Project's talk pages without having to edit hundreds of thousands of pages. Many of these parameters place the talk page of the article into an appropriate category. A manually generated (though sporadically updated) list of all the categories used in this template is at Template:WikiProject Biography/category list.
Place this template on the talk page of biography articles.
