Template:GAProgress/doc

This template is a progress assessment tool for Good Article reviews. The user may adjust its parameters to indicate whether each of the good article criteria are met as a review progresses. It is a quick and simple template, in contrast to other more detailed review templates.

All parameters default to File:Symbol comment 2.png when left blank. The syntax for all parameters is as follows:

• y, yes, ok and good produce File:Symbol support vote.svg
• n, no and bad produce File:Symbol oppose vote.svg
• neu and neutral produce File:Symbol neutral vote.svg
• huh, question and ? produce File:Symbol question.svg
