The subtemplates {{tl|WPBannerMeta/core}}, {{tl|WPBannerMeta/importance}}, {{tl|WPBannerMeta/class}}, {{tl|WPBannerMeta/qualityscale}}, {{tl|WPBannerMeta/importancescale}}, and {{tl|WPBannerMeta/comments}} need documentation subpages, at least to include the {{tl|high-risk}} template. If there is nothing substantial to document, then the doc subpage could just be a redirect to [[Template:WPBannerMeta/doc]] or possibly some other related template that is also high-risk. Does this make sense? [[User:Set theorist|Set theorist]] ([[User talk:Set theorist|talk]]) 08:22, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
:I'm not sure I see any advantage in using the documentation template on this pages, because all the documentation is centralised on the main template. At best it is useless and at worst it could be rather confusing to redirect them all to the same page. &mdash;&nbsp;Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ|MSGJ]]&nbsp;·&nbsp;[[User talk:MSGJ|talk]])</small> 20:05, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
== Problem that needs fixing ==
 
I made a change to a WikiProject template yesterday ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:WikiProject_Years&diff=483850711&oldid=384758929 see]). But the changes don't manifest as I had expected. Can someone help me fixing the problem? __[[User:Meco|meco]] ([[User talk:Meco|talk]]) 19:28, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
:I think I've fixed it for you. You adjusted the setting for the qualimpintersect hook (which is what populates all the categories in [[:Category:Years articles by quality and importance]]) rather than the main assessment classes. &mdash;&nbsp;Martin <small>([[User:MSGJ|MSGJ]]&nbsp;·&nbsp;[[User talk:MSGJ|talk]])</small> 20:02, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

== Linking to template ==
 
Hello,
 
It would be useful to have a link to the template page on every banner template, in the same way as {{tl|infobox}} (with its "View", "Talk", and "Edit" links, although I think only a "View" is necessary). This is useful in order to see what parameters it accepts, such as task force assignments, without having to edit the page, see its name, and looking it up.

::Great, thank you! Maybe this should be mentioned in the documentation? [[User:InverseHypercube|<font color="blue" size="2px">Inverse</font><font color="#6495ED" size="2px">Hypercube</font>]] <small>([[User talk:InverseHypercube|talk]])</small> 20:34, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
