{{ editprotected}} Please make this edit to fix the broken links. That will fix the issue reported at Template talk:WPBannerMeta#Nesting again.... Thanks. Anomie ⚔ 00:56, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
I've been looking at incorporating future-class and current-class articles, to categorize/assess articles about future/current seasons and games. We could also incorporate Redirect-class, Project-class, and other article categories to get a better handle on the large and growing pile of non-article pages we have in this project.
I also noticed that the link in the banner was pointing to the general Wikipedia quality category rather than our project quality category. For example, a B-class article was pointing to Category:B-Class articles rather than Category:B-Class college football articles.
I was going to make the changes to Template:WikiProject College football to address these issues, but then I noticed Template:WPBannerMeta, can do it all. It's a template used for generating WikiProject banner templates, with some cool extra features built in. For example, you can tell it to use a six-item checklist for B-class assessments, tagging auto-assessed articles, and more.
I've done some testing in my sandbox and created an experimental version of the new banner template at Template:WikiProject College football/sandbox, with a test using the new banner with some features enabled at Template:WikiProject College football/testcases. Try it out and play around.
Any suggestions for getting the new template to work the same as the existing one are welcomed. Once we get it nailed down, I'd like to incorporate it. DeFaultRyan ( talk) 21:44, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Please replace the template source with
this. This will replace all of the specialized code with {{
WPBannerMeta}} which has more support and more features.

Please add the following lines:
after "BANNER_NAME...":
after "ASSESSMENT_CAT...":
Thanks. Should be nothing controversial here. Just addressing the nag warnings. De Fault Ryan 20:15, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Please add the note from
this version of the sandbox to the template (flags for reassessment). In addition, could you please add this template (via <noinclude> tags) to
Category:WikiProject College football. Thanks.

Going to have some bot-assissted assessment activity coming up. Would like to pass the auto-assessment parameter through to WPBM. Please apply
this diff of the sandbox. Thanks.

Here's a thought: what if we made a project class called "AFD" that would allow us to then place our project tag on the talk page of any AFD discussion (such as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul LaVinn) which would then allow us to have one-click access to Articles for Deletion Discussions (essentially an AfD Library) on all college football related issues. Ideas?-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 03:09, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

It would be very nice to have a couple more "categories" added if possible. One I have in mind is for "AFD Discussions" so we can quickly group and reference previous AFD topics of various articles of note. Another is a "user-page" or "development" category so that articles that we have in our userspaces can still relatively quickly be located for collaboration.--

The template doesn't accept importance ratings, and at a glance I'm not clear where the functionality problem is. -- Muboshgu ( talk) 20:01, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Per discussions at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football/Assessment#Reinstating importance assessment and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football#Importance assessment -- any concerns?, importance assessment is being reinstated for WP:CFB. I believe all that is needed on the template is to add the parameter as such. I can then update the template documentation (not protected), create the categories, and start doing the importance assessments. Thanks, cmadler ( talk) 15:40, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

One more thing, please. We would like to use a custom importance mask to enable the "Bottom-importance" category. Performing this edit will do what we need. Thanks! De Fault Ryan 20:16, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
