Template:WikiProject banner shell/doc

Usage
This template combines several talk page banners (generally three or more) into a nested shell. They were designed for WikiProject banners and will only work reliably with such templates.

WikiProject assessment bots may change shell templates per this usage guideline when the bot is editing the talk page for other reasons. If local consensus on a talk page is to not follow this guideline, please specify yes or no explicitly to override the bots.

Syntax
The 1 parameter is not optional and must be included at the end of the first line.

Optional parameters

 * 1) Adding yes or its alias yes will display the  banner above the shell, detailing Wikipedia's official policies regarding biographies of living persons.  This must be added for articles about living people.
 * 2) Adding yes will display the  banner above the shell.  This should be used for articles where  does not apply directly to the subject, but which nevertheless have content that directly relates to other living persons. It is mutually-exclusive with yes.
 * 3) Adding yes will display the  banner above the shell.
 * 4) Adding yes will cause the outer table to be collapsed, hiding even the project names. Explicitly adding no (the default) will cause the outer table to not be collapsed, showing the summary of the banners, and prevent any bots that might have logic that would cause them to assign a value of yes from doing so.
 * 5) Adding Custom header text allows for the replacement of the default table title text ("This  is of interest to the following WikiProjects:") with whatever is supplied as its value.

Limitations and bugs

 * Pages where expansion depth is exceeded issue: This "shell template" adds to the "expansion depth" of the page. In certain circumstances, it can cause the page to exceed the limit. If this happens, find out which enclosed template is already "near the limit" and notify the WikiProject responsible for that template that there is an issue. Include details, as some WikiProject templates only get "close to the limit" with uncommon combinations of parameters. –davidwr (talk/contribs) 16:24, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
