The {{ WikiProject China}} project banner template should be added (not subst:ed) to the talk page of every article within the scope of the project. While the template does not require any additional parameters, it has a number of optional ones that add various extra features to the banner. The full syntax is as follows:

|class=
blank or omit the parameter.|importance=
blank or omit the parameter.|attention=yes
if the article needs immediate attention from experienced editors. Use only if another parameter does not cover the need for attention; this should be used sparingly. It is strongly encouraged to also add a section to the talk page explaining what needs attention.
|image-needed=yes
if the article needs pictures, otherwise remove this line.
|map-needed=yes
if the article needs a map, otherwise remove this line.
|needs-infobox=yes
if the article needs an
infobox. Remember that infoboxes are not suitable for all articles, and can overwhelm short articles.
|orphan=yes
if the article is not currently supported by a Chinese WikiProject.
|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
|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.|listas=Guan, Yu
so that the talk page will show up in the G's and not the Y's of the various assessment and administrative categories). This is important because it is one source used by those who set DEFAULTSORT on the article; consider also setting the DEFAULTSORT for the article when setting this parameter.
