Wikipedia:WikiProject Argentina/Assessment

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following system is proposed for use in the Wikiproject Argentina, for assessing the topic, importance and quality of our articles by use of the {{WPArgentina}} tag in Argentina-related articles' talk pages.

The importance system is divided in 4 levels, while the quality system is based on a 7 levels scheme which reflects principally how complete the article is, though the content and language quality are also factors. Once an article reaches the A-Class, it is considered "complete", although obviously edits will continue to be made.

It is critical that people not take these assessments personally. It is understood that we all have different priorities and different opinions about what makes a perfect article.

Pages progress grading scheme
Featured article	Reserved exclusively for articles that have received "Featured article" status after peer review. Articles are placed in Category:FA-Class Argentine articles.
A	The article provides a well-written and complete description of the topic, as described in How to write a Great Article. It includes a complete article and an appropriate series of headings to break up the article. It should have sufficient external reliable references, and properlly illustrated. It should be at the stage where it could at least be considered for featured article status. Articles are placed in Category:A-Class Argentine articles.
GA	Reserved exclusively for articles that have received Good Article status after peer review. Articles are placed in Category:GA-Class Argentine articles.
B	The article is "almost there" but it may be missing secondary information and details. Alternatively, the English may need a comprehensive rewrite to make it flow. Articles are palced in Category:B-Class Argentine articles.
Start	The article has a good amount of content, but it is still weak in certain areas. Articles are placed in Category:Start-Class Argentine articles.
Stub	The article is either a very short article or a stub that will need a lot of work to bring it to A-Class level, although there may be a significant amount of material in the article. Articles are placed in Category:Stub-Class Argentine articles.
Needed	The article does not exist and needs to be created. Articles are listed in Category:Needed Argentine articles.

[edit] Crossed categories

In order to locate articles that share importance and quality or importance and topic, the crossed categories are generated.

[edit] Importance and Quality

To reduce the number of categories, Top and High importance are merged into High importance. FA-Class, GA-Class and A-Class articles are merged into Fine articles, and B-Class and Start into Fair.

[edit] Topic and importance

For this crossing, importance is separated in two: High, containing Top and High importance articles, and Mid-low containing the Mid and Low importance ones.
