• title: name of the featured topic (used for the talk page link)

  Example: Final Fantasy titles         for Final Fantasy titles

• lead: name of topic to be displayed in header bar, including any formating and links. Must not include any bold text.

  Example: {{FA-star}} [[List of Final Fantasy titles|''Final Fantasy'' titles]]

• count: number of articles in topic

  Example: 17

• image (optional): name of image to be used, which must not be fair use. If omitted or blank, no image is used.

  Example: Solar sys2.jpg         (see Image:Solar sys2.jpg)

• imagesize (optional) size of any image in pixels. If omitted or blank, this will take the value 60 (if there is an image)

  Example: 55

  To make the height 60, like in most of the current boxes, divide length by height and multiply by 60.

• column1, column2, column3: use these to list the articles in the topic using bulleted lists, with any formatting, links, and the FA/GA stars.

  Example:

  • {{GA-icon}} [[Sun]]
  • {{FA-star}} [[Mercury (planet)|Mercury]]
  • — etc.

• Use ftstar=yes when when all articles in the topic are Featured Articles or Featured Lists. This adds the icon on the far left of header bar.
