Wikipedia:WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals/Assessment

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to the assessment department of the Orders, decorations, and medals WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles about Orders, Decorations, and Medals. While much of the work is done in conjunction with the WP:1.0 program, the article ratings are also used within the project itself to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.

The ratings are done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the {{WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Orders, decorations, and medals articles by quality, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

Frequently asked questions

[edit]
How can I get my article rated?
Please list it in the section for assessment requests below.
Who can assess articles?
Any member of the Orders, Decorations, and Medals WikiProject is free to add—or change—the rating of an article.
What if I don't agree with a rating?
You can list it in the section for assessment requests below, and someone will take a look at it. Alternately, you can ask any member of the project to rate the article again.
Aren't the ratings subjective?
Yes, they are, but it's the best system we've been able to devise; if you have a better idea, please don't hesitate to let us know!

If you have any other questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department.

Quality assessment

[edit]

An article's quality assessment is recorded using the |class= parameter in the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Articles that have the {{WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals}} banner template on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.

The following standard grades may be used to describe the quality of mainspace articles (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):

FL (for featured lists only; adds them to the FL-Class Orders, decorations, and medals articles category)  FL

C (for substantial articles; adds them to the C-Class Orders, decorations, and medals articles category) C
Start (for developing articles; adds them to the Start-Class Orders, decorations, and medals articles category) Start
Stub (for basic articles; adds them to the Stub-Class Orders, decorations, and medals articles category) Stub
List (for stand-alone lists; adds them to the List-Class Orders, decorations, and medals articles category) List
NA (for any other pages where assessment is unwarranted; adds them to the NA-Class Orders, decorations, and medals pages category) NA
??? (articles for which a valid class has not yet been provided are listed in the Unassessed Orders, decorations, and medals articles category) ???

For non-mainspace content, the following values may be used:

Category (for categories; adds them to the Category-Class Orders, decorations, and medals pages category) Category

Importance assessment

[edit]

An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals|importance=???}}

The following values may be used for the importance parameter to describe the relative importance of the article within the project (see Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Priority of topic for assessment criteria):

Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance Orders, decorations, and medals articles)  Top 
High (adds articles to Category:High-importance Orders, decorations, and medals articles)  High 
Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Orders, decorations, and medals articles)  Mid 
Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance Orders, decorations, and medals articles)  Low 
NA (adds articles to Category:NA-importance Orders, decorations, and medals articles)  NA
