Template:Text quality/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Text quality.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This page documents the template {{TextQuality}}. It provides a small page-status indicator for the prose quality of an article. For the guideline behind the levels, see Chalo Chatu:Text quality.

What this template does

• Renders a small icon (often via an Indicator) showing the page’s text quality level.
• In mainspace only, adds a tracking category: ‘‘Category:Text quality N%’’ (where N is 0, 25, 50, 75, 100).

Usage

Place once at the very top of a page (just below any short description).

Preferred (named parameter)

{{TextQuality|level=50%}}

Legacy positional (kept for compatibility)

{{TextQuality|50%}}

Optional CSS class (default is noprint)

{{TextQuality|level=75%|class=noprint}}

Suppress categories outside mainspace

{{TextQuality|level=25%|nocat=yes}}

Parameters

One of: 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. Controls the icon and (in mainspace) the tracking category.

class

Extra CSS class for the wrapper (default: noprint).

nocat

Levels

0%		Text added / very rough	Start basic copyedits; add sections; fix obvious errors
25%		Being edited / partial	Expand stubs; structure the lead; fix grammar; cleanup
50%		Text complete (unproofread)	Full pass for style and consistency; verify names/terms
75%		Proofread and corrected	Second review; tighten wording; resolve talk-page notes
100%		Proofread by several users	Light housekeeping; keep current
