Usage

This template draws a progress bar using {{Progression}} and displays a statistics box. It differs from the original bar in that is designed for use in backlog category elimination drives; as articles are removed from the category specified, the percentage goes up based on the original population (e.g., at the start of the drive) and the goal.

The example shown above uses Category:Articles that need to be wikified from January 2009. The backlog started with 500 articles and the goal is to reach 0 articles.
