Optional parameters

computer-science – set |computer-science=yes if the article is supported by WikiProject Computer science, or |computer-science=no if not; n.b. the default is yes.
- This parameter populates Category:WikiProject Computer science articles, and the relevant subcategory of Category:Computer science articles by quality based upon the |class= parameter.
- computer-science-importance (only used if |computer-science=yes is set; uses the same values as |importance=) – Importance rating within WikiProject Computer science. If blank or omitted, the importance rating set by |importance= is used.
  - This importance rating populates the relevant subcategory of Category:Computer science articles by importance.
computing – set |computing=yes if the article is supported by WikiProject Computing.
- This parameter populates the relevant subcategory of Category:Computing articles by quality based upon the |class= parameter.
- computing-importance (only used if |computing=yes is set; uses the same values as |importance=) – Importance rating within WikiProject Computing. If blank or omitted, the importance rating set by |importance= is used.
  - This importance rating populates the relevant subcategory of Category:Computing articles by importance.
importance – valid values are: top, high, mid, low, na (case-insensitive). See the project's importance scale for details. Setting an explicit value of NA is rarely necessary; for this, either leave |importance= blank or omit the parameter.
auto – This parameter is for the use of bots and indicates that the article has been automatically rated:
- |auto=length – based on the length of the article
- |auto=inherit – because one or more other projects use this class
- |auto=yes (or |auto=stub), in conjunction with |class=stub – as Stub-Class because it uses a stub template
  - Use of the above values (or value combinations) with this parameter populates Category:Automatically assessed Database articles.
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.
