Welcome to the assessment department of the Wikipedia WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia-related articles (for scope, see the WikiProject page). 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 rating system allows the project to monitor the quality of articles in our subject areas, and to prioritize work on these articles. It is also utilized by the Wikipedia 1.0 program to prepare for static releases of Wikipedia content. Please note, however, that these ratings are primarily intended for the internal use of the project, and do not necessarily imply any official standing within Wikipedia as a whole.
2. How do I add an article to the WikiProject?
Just add {{WikiProject Wikipedia}} to the talk page; there's no need to do anything else.
3. Someone put a {{WikiProject Wikipedia}} template on an article, but it doesn't seem to be within the project's scope. What should I do?
Because of the large number of articles we deal with, we occasionally make mistakes and add tags to articles that shouldn't have them. If you notice one, feel free to remove the tag, and optionally leave a note on the project talk page (or directly with the person who tagged the article).
4. Who can assess articles?
Any member of WikiProject Wikipedia is free to add—or change—the rating of an article. Editors who are not participants in this project are also welcome to assess articles, but should defer to consensus within the project in case of procedural disputes.
5. How do I rate an article?
Check the quality scale and select the level that best matches the state of the article; then, follow the instructions below to add the rating to the project banner on the article's talk page. Please note that some of the available levels have an associated formal review process; this is documented in the assessment scale.
6. Why didn't the reviewer leave any comments?
Unfortunately, due to the volume of articles that need to be assessed, we are unable to leave detailed comments in most cases. If you have particular questions, you might ask the person who assessed the article; they will usually be happy to provide you with their reasoning.
7. 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. Please note that some of the available levels have an associated formal review process; this is documented in the assessment scale.
8. Aren't the ratings subjective?
Yes, they are somewhat subjective, 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!
9. What if I have a question not listed here?
If you have any other questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department; for any other issues, you can go to the main project discussion page.
An article's quality assessment is generated from the class parameter in the {{WikiProject Wikipedia}} project banner on its talk page: {{WikiProject Wikipedia|class=???}}
The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):
Afeatured article exemplifies Wikipedia's very best work and is distinguished by professional standards of writing, presentation, and sourcing. In addition to meeting the policies regarding content for all Wikipedia articles, it has the following attributes.
It is:
well-written: its prose is engaging and of a professional standard;
comprehensive: it neglects no major facts or details and places the subject in context;
well-researched: it is a thorough and representative survey of the relevant literature; claims are verifiable against high-quality reliable sources and are supported by inline citations where appropriate;
stable: it is not subject to ongoing edit wars and its content does not change significantly from day to day, except in response to the featured article process; and
a lead: a concise lead section that summarizes the topic and prepares the reader for the detail in the subsequent sections;
appropriate structure: a substantial but not overwhelming system of hierarchical section headings; and
consistent citations: where required by criterion 1c, consistently formatted inline citations using footnotes—see citing sources for suggestions on formatting references. Citation templates are not required.
Length. It stays focused on the main topic without going into unnecessary detail and uses summary style where appropriate.
Professional, outstanding, and thorough; a definitive source for encyclopedic information.
No further content additions should be necessary unless new information becomes available; further improvements to the prose quality are often possible.
Prose. It features professional standards of writing.
Lead. It has an engaging lead that introduces the subject and defines the scope and inclusion criteria.
Comprehensiveness.
(a) It comprehensively covers the defined scope, providing at least all of the major items and, where practical, a complete set of items; where appropriate, it has annotations that provide useful and appropriate information about the items.
(c) In length and/or topic, it meets all of the requirements for stand-alone lists; does not violate the content-forking guideline, does not largely duplicate material from another article, and could not reasonably be included as part of a related article.
Structure. It is easy to navigate and includes, where helpful, section headings and table sort facilities.
Style. It complies with the Manual of Style and its supplementary pages.
(a) Visual appeal. It makes suitable use of text layout, formatting, tables, and colour; and a minimal proportion of items are redlinked.
Stability. It is not the subject of ongoing edit wars and its content does not change significantly from day to day, except in response to the featured list process.
Professional standard; it comprehensively covers the defined scope, usually providing a complete set of items, and has annotations that provide useful and appropriate information about those items.
No further content additions should be necessary unless new information becomes available; further improvements to the prose quality are often possible.
The article is well organized and essentially complete, having been examined by impartial reviewers from a WikiProject or elsewhere. Good article status is not a requirement for A-Class.
More detailed criteria
The article meets the A-Class criteria:
Provides a well-written, clear and complete description of the topic, as described in Wikipedia:Article development. It should be of a length suitable for the subject, appropriately structured, and be well referenced by a broad array of reliable sources. It should be well illustrated, with no copyright problems. Only minor style issues and other details need to be addressed before submission as a featured article candidate. See the A-Class assessment departments of some of the larger WikiProjects (e.g. WikiProject Military history).
Very useful to readers. A fairly complete treatment of the subject. A non-expert in the subject would typically find nothing wanting.
Expert knowledge may be needed to tweak the article, and style problems may need solving. WP:Peer review may help.
it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);
Useful to nearly all readers, with no obvious problems; approaching (though not necessarily equalling) the quality of a professional publication.
Some editing by subject and style experts is helpful; comparison with an existing featured article on a similar topic may highlight areas where content is weak or missing.
The article meets all of the B-Class criteria. It is mostly complete and does not have major problems, but requires some further work to reach good article standards.
The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.
The article has a defined structure. Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.
The article is reasonably well-written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but does not need to be of the standard of featured articles. The Manual of Style does not need to be followed rigorously.
The article contains supporting materials where appropriate. Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams, an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.
Readers are not left wanting, although the content may not be complete enough to satisfy a serious student or researcher.
A few aspects of content and style need to be addressed. Expert knowledge may be needed. The inclusion of supporting materials should be considered if practical, and the article checked for general compliance with the Manual of Style and related style guidelines.
The article is substantial but is still missing important content or contains irrelevant material. The article should have some references to reliable sources, but may still have significant problems or require substantial cleanup.
More detailed criteria
The article cites more than one reliable source and is better developed in style, structure, and quality than Start-Class, but it fails one or more of the criteria for B-Class. It may have some gaps or missing elements, or need editing for clarity, balance, or flow.
Useful to a casual reader, but would not provide a complete picture for even a moderately detailed study.
Considerable editing is needed to close gaps in content and solve cleanup problems.
An article that is developing but still quite incomplete. It may or may not cite adequate reliable sources.
More detailed criteria
The article has a meaningful amount of good content, but it is still weak in many areas. The article has one or more of the following:
A useful picture or graphic
Multiple links that help explain or illustrate the topic
A subheading that fully treats an element of the topic
Multiple subheadings that indicate material that could be added to complete the article
Provides some meaningful content, but most readers will need more.
Providing references to reliable sources should come first; the article also needs substantial improvement in content and organisation. Also improve the grammar, spelling, writing style and improve the jargon use.
A very basic description of the topic. Meets none of the Start-Class criteria.
Provides very little meaningful content; may be little more than a dictionary definition. Readers probably see insufficiently developed features of the topic and may not see how the features of the topic are significant.
Any editing or additional material can be helpful. The provision of meaningful content should be a priority. The best solution for a Stub-class Article to step up to a Start-class Article is to add in referenced reasons of why the topic is significant.
Meets the criteria of a stand-alone listorset index article, which is an article that contains primarily a list, usually consisting of links to articles in a particular subject area.
There is no set format for a list, but its organization should be logical and useful to the reader.
Lists should be lists of live links to Wikipedia articles, appropriately named and organized.
The page serves to distinguish multiple articles that share the same (or similar) title.
Additions should be made as new articles of that name are created. Pay close attention to the proper naming of such pages, as they often do not need "(disambiguation)" appended to the title.
Any template falls under this class. The most common types of templates include infoboxes and navboxes.
Different types of templates serve different purposes. Infoboxes provide easy access to key pieces of information about the subject. Navboxes are for the purpose of grouping together related subjects into an easily accessible format, to assist the user in navigating between articles.
Infoboxes are typically placed at the upper right of an article, while navboxes normally go across the very bottom of a page. Beware of too many different templates, as well as templates that give either too little, too much, or too specialized information.
An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject Wikipedia}} project banner on its talk page:
{{WikiProject Wikipedia|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):
The criteria used for rating article importance are not meant to be an absolute or canonical view of how significant the topic is. Rather, they attempt to gauge the probability of the average reader of Wikipedia needing to look up the topic (and thus the immediate need to have a suitably well-written article on it). Thus, subjects with greater popular notability may be rated higher than topics which are arguably more "important" but which are of interest primarily to students of Wikipedia.
Note that general notability need not be from the perspective of editor demographics; generally notable topics should be rated similarly regardless of the country or region in which they hold said notability. Thus, topics which may seem obscure to a Western audience—but which are of high notability in other places—should still be highly rated.
Subject is extremely important, even crucial, to its specific field. Reserved for subjects that have achieved international notability within their field.
Subject is not particularly notable or significant even within its field of study. It may only be included to cover a specific part of a notable article.
✔ Done: rated as C. Not rating as B because there are a number of unsourced parts, and I'm not confident with those criteria. Mrfoogles (talk) 23:17, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✔ Done as C: Text, coverage, and presence of reliable sources seems good, but there are a number of uncited statements, so it does not qualify for B. Mrfoogles (talk) 23:42, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✔ Done: rating as a C. Sourcing, text, images, very good except for issues with understandability (one of the B criteria) in the lead and the deep gluteal space section (not knowing any of the terminology there I have no idea what this is). Probably nearly a B Mrfoogles (talk) 23:24, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of Oliver R. BarrettSuo Edits (talk) 19:39, 9 July 2024 (UTC). I've been expanding this article a lot, and, while it needs significant improvement, I most certainly believe it is way above the standards of a stub.[reply]
Not done @CanonNi, as this still qualifies as a Start article. I will leave a message on the talk page of things you could do to expand and improve the article. Once you work on it some more, request reassessment again. Ktkvtsh (talk) 17:40, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done @Sc2327, upgraded assessment form Stub to C. Please note that there is a notice on the page. This article does have some spots where it is overly promotional. Once this is addressed, it can be upgraded to B. Ktkvtsh (talk) 17:31, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ktkvtsh Thank you for your work. I would appreciate an example or two of the promotional lines so as to further improve the article. Best wishes. Sc2327 (talk) 17:39, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done @Isi96, with the information available in the article, this is still a Start article. There is a massive amount of inline citations. With that many sources, this article could certainly be expanded more. Ktkvtsh (talk) 22:17, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The current assessment was made for the original article when it was a stub. Since then I've made the article from scratch twice. The first version got nominated for the DYK, and after it got rejected, I remade it again following the advice received. Thanks for your work. ZenZeppelin (talk) 10:09, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to know where this article stands and if summary style between it and Big Excursion have been properly introduced per the duplication tag. It is not a very active area, so probably best to get an opinion here. Pietrus1 (talk) 17:28, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done @Pietrus1, upgraded assessment from Start to C.
As for where the article stands with the notice on the page, I will leave a message on the Revival Process talk page. Ktkvtsh (talk) 21:43, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of Opole. I never edited the article though, it's just that for me the Start class seems to be a bit too low, and I don't feel confident enough to change it on my own. Dżamper (talk) 20:02, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Can I also ask if this has any affect on search engine indexing? Because I've noticed that compared to other similar articles, googling 'hp spectre' doesn't bring this article up anywhere near the top and it's way down below which is strange for a Wikipedia article. Privateeih (talk) 19:45, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have any statistical reason for this, but Wikipedia entries for terms related to tech companies, such as phones, tablets, computers are usually indexed lower than the companies themselves and advertisements because they tend to be much more aggressive with ad placement and search engine optimization. Reconrabbit23:40, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done @Mrfoogles, it appears you have already assessed this article on 20 May 2024 as C. I do not believe this article should be re-assessed to anything other than C at this time. Ktkvtsh (talk) 14:49, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I edited it a bit, then I noticed it was a stub and figured it should probably be more than that (it wasn't a stub before I edited it either, I don't think). I thought about putting it as a B, but I wasn't sure if it qualified, so I put it up here. I'll take that as it being considered a C, then. Mrfoogles (talk) 18:21, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done @Joeykai. This article has only one source and inline citation. This is unacceptable and must be addressed. No re-assessment can take place until this is taken care of. Ktkvtsh (talk) 14:47, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Partly done @Joeykai, upgraded assessment from Stub to C. Please address the notices I added where citations are needed and then reply here and I will upgrade to B. Ktkvtsh (talk) 17:00, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done as there are not enough inline citations verifying statements made in the article. @MemeGod ._. please add citations or remove content that can not be verified. Then re-request assessment. Ktkvtsh (talk) 20:44, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Ktkvtsh, I wonder if you have time could you have a look at the edits I have made to the lists on the Literary fragment page? I've tried to address the verifiability by referencing where these notable examples have come from as well as incorporating the lists into the article proper. Thank you Alsonamedbort15 (talk) 03:17, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's my first time requesting a reassessment of any article, so please do pardon me if I make some informal requests but I think Gupta–Hunnic Wars deserves more than a C rating. Can't it be upgraded to B, GA or even an A rating? Jonharojjashi (talk) 16:32, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done @Jonharojjashi there are numerous issues that must be addressed before any re-assessment can take place. The lead is much too long. There are far too many statements that lack inline citations. There is also an issue with the neutrality of the article. Only after these things are addressed can we re-assess this article. Please re-request once these are fixed. Thanks. Ktkvtsh (talk) 16:09, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of George W. Minns. It's initial assesment was in 2007, and I have added roughly 10,000 bytes in the last few months. SammySpartan (talk) 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Requesting reassessment of Regina's historic buildings and precincts. It's currently rated a "B" class, but I think that's way over-rated, for reasons discussed on the Talk page. I'm not familiar with how assessments work and would like a new pair of eyes looking at it. I will try to improve it, but I think it needs a new baseline to start with. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 03:04, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of ICIMOD. I have completely rewritten this page over September 2022 - April 2024, added several sections and categories to it. Its existing assessment was done in 2006. The article stands significantly improved, and is of interest to several Wikiprojects in addition to those originally visible on its talk page. (talk) 28 April 2024
Requesting an assessment of Money Money 2020. I've added over 4,000 bytes to the article, an entirely new section, added citations for almost all claims on the article and generally cleaned it up a lot. I no longer believe it should be classed as a stub. Beachweak (talk) 19:44, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassessment for Orbital (1991 album). I've updated the page significantly and replaced unreliable sources with more reliable ones. Also, I think this page was last assessed in 2009, and I think there has been plenty of new information added since then, not just from me. Tedster41 (talk) 20:24, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassesment for Shahed drones. I've added about 30,000 bytes since its previous review, which scored it at Stub Class. Rater predicts B or higher with 93.2% confidence. – Primium (talk)16:43, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting assessment for 321 Coffee, which was added to the mainspace on April 12 but has undergone significant revisions. Currently ranked at Start-class, but I believe it should be C- or maybe even B-Class. Dallasoliver (talk) 19:43, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting an assessment for Amie Parnes, which was just added to the mainspace yesterday. Currently ranked at Start-class, but Rater is predicting a rating of B-Class or higher with 93.9% accuracy. Pac-Man PHD (talk) 05:17, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting an assesment for Draft:Hirohara Shrine. A user with the name User:WC gudang inspirasi disregarded WP:AFCREVIEW and moved the page from Draftspace to Mainspace. Reverted back but assesment scale still asses it as 'redirect', halting the review process. the same user have done the same unauthorized moves with other draft articles and moving it to Mainspace. Kaliper1 (talk) 02:59, 24 April 2024 (UTC) Retracted, Fixed![reply]
Done Assessed as B-class. Great effort. Make sure to verify anything without a citation - it looks like that honorary doctorate may have been fabricated. Reconrabbit18:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting assessment for Botswana after re-reading, adding sources, updating data and images, adding context, and paragraphs. I would like to know if it is B-class worthy. 48JcL48 (talk) (contribs) 02:45, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of S. L. Rose. The page has been expanded greatly since it was originally ranked a stub when I first created it, and it definitely merits more than a stub in its current state. TarheelBornBred (talk02:32, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of Carl Bunch. Originally ranked as a stub, I've expanded the page significantly. Rater predicts the article could be considered as B or higher with 86% accuracy. Pac-Man PHD (talk) 19:56, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done @CanonNi, as it is still Start. To get to C, the article will need more inline citations and more information. After reading, I am left wanting more on the topic. Please do this and re-request assessment. Ktkvtsh (talk) 21:40, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting assessment/reassessment of Dee D. Jackson, which has been significantly expanded upon, cited to a greater extent and brought up to a more encyclopedic state of existence compared to its previous assessment as a stub-class article. TheMysteriousShadeheart (talk) 17:08, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting assessment/reassessment of Tiziana Rivale, which has been significantly expanded upon, cited to a greater extent and brought up to a more encyclopedic state of existence compared to its previous assessment as a stub-class article. TheMysteriousShadeheart (talk) 17:07, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done to B-class. InDimensional Very interesting topic, and it inspired me to do a little research myself. I found information on how the Omnichord has been used as a form of musical therapy, which I think will add a lot to the page. Anyway, this was well written and cited, though I wish there were more reputable/non-primary sources out there. I had to remove one of your in-line citations however as it didn't provide any information. I looked for a suitable source to replace it but I was unable to find anything, so keep that in mind when looking on how to improve the article. Cheers, Pac-Man PHD (talk) 21:28, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for taking the time and for the edits, I went through your changes and took some mental notes for the future. Agreed on the primary resources but there was some conflicting info about years of releases so they'll do for now. I will have to check out that article. Cheers. InDimensional (talk) 21:35, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting assessment of Maarjamäe, which I expanded on majorly recently. Would the future addition of images (planning to take in spring-summer) affect the assessment? Many thanks. MartinusK (talk) 15:47, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It would definitely be at least a C class, the Evad37/rater prediction is saying "B or higher" with 90.5% accuracy. I want to also point out the transport section has no sources. Shadow311 (talk) 00:04, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassessment of Kangaroo Route, It has not been assessed since 2007 when it was 6 sentences long and many editors (including myself) have put significant build out in the last 17 years towards the B Class checklist :). DigitalExpat (talk) 07:03, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Georgeykiwi Done content-wise it's a B-class in my opinion, I rated it "C" only because many of the references are dead, making verification difficult. If you rescue them, please ping me and I'll up the rating. Broc (talk) 11:34, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done I fixed some minor style issues and rated it B-class as the article is well sourced and detailed; if you want additional feedback let me know. Broc (talk) 12:57, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassessment of Tapir! - I gave it an assessment of C class myself, but I'd like an independent review to see if it hits B class (I think it does, but I might be biased since I wrote it). Suntooooth, it/he (talk/contribs) 08:54, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassessment of Paradox of Tolerance. I spent a lot of time expanding this a few weeks ago and requested an assessment via the Philosophy WikiProject, but following the changes to the assessment process I'm resubmitting my request here. Thanks! Ddevault (talk) 09:22, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting assessment of Chachmei Lublin Yeshiva. Article assessed as stub class in WikiProject Poland, and start class in Wikiproject Judaism. Expansions were made, along with some recent note-worthy content. It has been greatly expanded over the past 17 years. NeverBeGameOver (talk) 04:22, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassessment for Li Yundi. It was last assessed 17 years ago in 2007. I believe it fits the criteria for B-class.
Also, I would like a reassessment of its importance. I believe it fits the criteria high, as the page is about a world-renowned pianist. Thanks EleniXDD (talk) 09:18, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, thanks for the assess of biography. That’s quick. Is it possible to also assess the two related wiki projects and evaluate their importance. Thanks a lot EleniXDD (talk) 09:56, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting an assessment for Sydney van Hooijdonk. It is currently rated Stub, and has been since 2019 despite major work on it since. I believe it fits the criteria for C-class, but would like an outside opinion on this, and if not C-class, which class it currently sits in. Christhecoolboy (talk) 16:40, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting an assessment for Tyler1. To the best of my knowledge it has not had an assessment since the article was first created in 2018. I believe it is a B class or close to it, and I would appreciate feedback to better understand the criteria for BLP articles like this. Mokadoshi (talk) 23:07, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done I think Start class makes sense here because the majority of the article is specifically about the South African branch which no longer exists. I also believe extraneous detail should be removed. For example, a whole paragraph on Schultz's fiancé is not significantly relevant to a business with over 50 locations. With more English sources about the overall business this article would be greatly improved. I understand the frustration since there aren't many English sources. As an aside, it's worth mentioning that the article relies heavily on references to TimesLive which is on the Usable but be cautious list. I also fixed a minor duplicated reference. Mokadoshi (talk) 07:08, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I actually put in a request on WikiProject Netherlands out of a hope that some people there could grab some more info from Dutch sources just to make sure I don't mess up on some translation, but I'll probably end up just doing it myself.
As for the fiancé situation I forgot to put in what actually made it a problem, the fact that the business was under threat. That being said, I don't think it was ever really specified why the business was under threat because of her being barred from the country so I'll probably just remove that para entirely. CommissarDoggoTalk?10:57, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@BEN917 Done rated as Start but the article has major sourcing issues, most of the statements in the page are unsourced. Please reach out if you need help with referencing. Broc (talk) 13:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of both the Tui T. Sutherland and Wings of Fire (novel series) pages. With deepest gratitude offered to all those involved, I have led the charge in undertaking major overhauls of the entirety of the content of the aforementioned articles, respectively commencing these efforts in August 2022 and January 2023. Seeing as to how these pages have changed exponentially since these efforts were launched, it appears that a quality assessment is again in order. Considering the interdisciplinary output of the affiliated WikiProjects these pages are related, coupled with my consistent presence on these pages (simultaneously preventing vandalism/fancruft and holistically improving sections), an "outsider's" perspective would be most welcome at this time. As always, feedback is welcome and greatly appreciated; I thank you in advance for your time and consideration! ^^ TheMysteriousShadeheart (talk) 05:43, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done@Scientelensia: I can't judge the importance, but I updated the rating to C-class. I also tagged a couple dead links, there is space for further improvement to the article. Broc (talk) 13:59, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bob Orders has, in my estimation, proper citations and improved organization which place it around C-class as opposed to start class. Given the minor shift from start to C as the request this is very low priority. Dionysius Millertalk13:59, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of Bertram Fletcher Robinson. I have added fully referenced and original photographs and content to this article over the past few months and I now believe it fulfils the standard required for GA standard. Therefore, please can I request a reassessment and/or feedback about how to achieve a GA rating for this article.

Requesting reassessment of Nubian ibex. I've added a lot of content over the last several months, bringing it from Start-Class to C-Class. Following further edits with in-depth citations, I would like to get the article to B-Class (and ideally GA when possible). Thank you, Bbreslau (talk) 17:51, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of Thailand. Major cleanup tags were removed, in addition to some content rewrite, which might need a quality reassessment from external observers for impartiality.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Kornkaobat (talk • contribs) 13:47, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment of History of fantasy. Massive swathes of unsourced or questionably relevant information, all written in a partisan, essayist style. Recently merged with another article so I can only hope the issues were a result of that because there is no way an article this bad should have slipped forward to B-class. Some of the sources are also derived directly from modern authors like Moorcock which seems like it could easily lead to biased writing - Fantasy is a form of genre fiction first and foremost, a work simply having supernatural elements does not warrant inclusion here without strong corroboration.

Requesting a re-assessment of Emblem of Andhra Pradesh. It was in a stub category on the mainspace with start class assessment on it's talk page when I first took up the task to improve it. I have left some considerable amount of time after my development of the article to consider any more user requests and other consideration and everything seems to be fine now. 456legendtalk08:43, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done@456legend: the article lacks clarity. There are too many foreign words without explanation or links, which makes it almost impossible to understand for a casual reader. If clarity is improved, it could be upped to C-class. Ping me if you need help. Broc (talk) 16:10, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Broc I apologize for not addressing this earlier. I have now rectified the issue and provided clarification for the words. Could you please review the article now? 456legendtalk03:11, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a re-assessment of Circa (company), I added some more details to it, some more references and pushed it past what I would see as a stub - looking for some eyes on it to see whether I'm right on that. Thanks in advance. CommissarDoggoTalk?19:09, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@HelenDegenerate: nice article! I found two issues with sources which I tagged with {{cn}} and {{failed verification}}, once they are solved I would rate it B-class.
Requesting assessment of article on the Oesterdam. I have overhauled this as it was previously just a redirect link to the main Delta Works article. I've made it into an article on this dam (the longest in the Delta Works) in its own right. Thanks. D McParland (talk) 20:25, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Kia ora, requesting an assessment of Crate Day, I've updated it to include more background about its origins and related events but not sure if it falls under Start or C now. Cheers. Dudsud (talk) 12:22, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done Upgraded to C-class; good work Dudsud! It looks like another editor had already bumped it to start-class. For images you may want to check: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Beer_crates Something lacking in the current article is a description of the celebration: to what degree is it a joke, to what degree is it celebrated, how widely, how is it (aside from the becoming drunk part) celebrated. Some parts cited to primary sources on Facebook like "mainstream rock radio station The Rock started The Rock National Crate Day" should be cited to secondary sources if possible. Rjjiii (talk) 05:49, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done, Updated to Start class, article needs a tad bit more referencing, but with a few general improvements it will probably become a C-class, Nice job! Begocci (talk) 09:31, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done@Davidindia: it's a rather short page (194 words), which still gets categorized as a stub per WP:STUBDEF. I haven't changed the rating, but feel free to ping me once you expand the article further! I added a couple tags to the article, and made some style changes. Broc (talk) 14:54, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Adding a historical background section would provide readers with context on the development of this concept. Source quality is crucial; ensure all statements are backed by reliable sources and add citations where needed. Enhance the measurement section by detailing the tools used to assess ecological empathy and discussing their application in research. Ktkvtsh (talk) 18:10, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for all the additions you made to my article, @JoeNMLC! I love all the Wikilinks you put in. I added a more substantial summary to the lead section (thank you for that suggestion!) and added more Wikipedia links throughout the article. Is it possible to have a reassessment? Thanks for your help with my article! Zen Buddhista (talk) 21:00, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a new assessment of Yoshito Hori-assessed as a "Start" back in 2019. I significantly overhauled it since and this biography might qualify as a B. Much appreciated! Furoba (talk) 03:02, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting an assessment of Remembrance Day (Hong Kong), which I recently created by translating the article in Chinese and would appreciate any feedback. Thank you! CanonNi (talk) 23:57, 7 December 2023
Done @CanonNi - I've assessed this as Start class for now. The main problems are the quality of references. Looking specifically at the Origins section, one of the references is permanently dead, and the citation at the end of the 2nd paragraph only seems to provide a reference to that last sentence and nothing before it (but I can't tell for certain). Lastly, the last sentence in the article has a reference to photos on Facebook, which makes me think this is original research. I'm assuming you can find some English references to the history portions of the article - there is no requirement for English references, but it makes assessment easier. If you improve this further, please submit another request, and feel free to ping me directly to get a quicker response if you want. Mokadoshi (talk) 02:29, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a new assessment of Guy Lombardo-now assessed as a "Start". New sections, reference citations, audio links, and additional content has been added & this musician's biography might qualify as a B or GA (a nomination has been posted). Since Lombardo was known as "Mr. New Year's Eve" a speedy review might be useful just in time for the Holiday! Enjoy!. Ciao160.72.80.178 (talk) 15:32, 7 December 2023 (UTC)NHPL[reply]
Requesting an assessment of Utopian thinking, I created this page mainly summarizing social psychological research on it. I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you! --- Kiwimiho (talk) 19:06, 4 December 2023
Requesting an assessment of Friendship, I added two sections (evolutionary approach and friendship jealousy) and made major changes to the Non-human friendship section (formerly Inter-species friendship). Thank you! --NRodbruin (talk) 16:40, 4 December 2023 (UTC)NRodbruin[reply]
Done @A.mollusk: Assessed at B class, only because higher classes need more than one person's input. This article has really come a long way! Left my feedback in the edit summary, if you would like me to further elaborate feel free to ask. Good luck with your GA nomination! Pear 2.0(say hi!)17:20, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done @LowellMillGirl: Assessed at Start class like you asked. I left some feedback in the edit summary - very good work considering you're a new editor. If you would like me to further elaborate feel free to ask. Pear 2.0(say hi!)16:35, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Request reassessment of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Article is currently rated Start class, but has substantial sourcing. I have shortened the plot summary and cut down an EXAMPLEFARM to bring it in line with current standards and policy. Hopefully, the newly overhauled article rates at least C Class by now. Just Another Cringy Username (talk) 21:32, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done @RegMonkey: Assessed at B class. I didn't have anything to say - the article is pretty much flawless from my perspective. If you have any questions let me know. Good luck with the GA nomination! Pear 2.0(say hi!)17:49, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The article MegaCon has been overhauled in the past couple months from a starter class article reading like incomplete tidbits of info into an informative read with much cited research done into the event's history. I'd say this could be a B or even GA class article now. ShadowDragon343 (talk) 01:44, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I edited both Battle of Cynoscephalae and Pee curl a whole bunch in order to fix some issues (distinct lack of citations (template had been there since 2015) and other historical issues that came with it on Battle of Cynoscephalae - issues in translation, citations and additionally just fleshing out the article on pee curl) and was wondering whether both could potentially be assessed. CommissarDoggo (talk) 14:28, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No questions, just glad they've been looked at and proper pleased that the battle was re-assessed, I just wish I could've found more citations for it than I did. Thanks! CommissarDoggoTalk?19:17, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not done as no effort was made to improve citations for Pee curl, it will remain assessed as C. Please re-request assessment once improvements are made please. Ktkvtsh (talk) 17:08, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Another article I've edited, Aberffraw, Anglesey is no longer a start class because of my additions and needs a better rating. But more importantly, Talk:Aberffraw is listed as Wikiproject city, which it is not, it's a village, and in the talk rating, it is also listed as a Celts project, not too sure about that either, maybe the House of Aberffraw, perhaps a review is needed of the article interests. Cltjames (talk) 18:46, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please take a look at the descriptions of each WP:PROJECT, "towns and various other settlements on Wikipedia" are under the coverage of WP:CITIES, and "modern day Celtic nations" are under the coverage of WP:CELTS.
Thanks for that assessment. It was originally a redirect, and I felt there I'd written a sufficient article for Hugh Ellis-Nanney to separate into 2. Although both are relatively small, the information about the person and his baronetcy is much improved, and also correctly structured for readers to enjoy learning his biography and peerage. Cltjames (talk) 14:31, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to request a re-assessment of Konecranes. It has a stub assessment but I added content to it and is now much larger. In my opinion it does not fit that assessment anymore. Yökyöpeli (talk) 16:26, 9 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Cool cool, I should also let you know I recovered two of the sources with IABot after my assessment, so the dead links are no longer an issue. Pac-Man PHD (talk) 00:43, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It appears stats.gov.cn had just decided to move these to a different subdomain. I've found the updated links and added them to the article so all good in that respect now :) - azpineapple | T/C08:57, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not done @Prspiring: While the article is so close to A class, there are some sections missing citations that make it just fall short. A few more citations and it is an easy A class. Frankly there's nothing that couldn't be ironed out in the GA nomination, if you're willing to go that route. Please let me know if you have any questions. Pear 2.0(say hi!)16:50, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done @Raskuly: Assessed as B class. Great work! I left some feedback in the edit summary, though I had really nothing to say, if you would like me to further elaborate feel free to ask.Pear 2.0(say hi!)16:59, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done @Koopastar: Assessed as start-class. A few statements are unsourced, and the lead could use some work. A few of your sources (youtube, imdb, twitter if possible) also need to be replaced with more reliable ones. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!20:09, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done @Kallmemel: Assessed as B class. Good work here, I know these relatively obscure subjects are difficult to source so well. I left some feedback in the edit summary, if you would like me to further elaborate feel free to ask. Pear 2.0(say hi!)16:59, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting a reassessment of Jonathan Allen (journalist). JoeNMLC believed that the article was worthy of being assessed by people more familiar with the subject and/or political journalism. The WP:RATER tool shows "Class B, or better" at 95 percent prediction. I would just like to improve this article as much as I can. Thank you. Pac-Man PHD (talk) 00:41, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm surprised so many articles went unrated. I left some feedback in the edit summaries for each, if you would like me to further elaborate feel free to ask. Pear 2.0(say hi!)17:22, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, I did not think the assessment would ever get done after looking at the backlog and receiving no response. I'm trying to improve the latter 4 articles to at least C class. I will be using primary sources and details important to history military for the last 3, while for the sports one I'm working on the individual athletes' details as you pointed out. Thanks once again. Matarisvan (talk) 09:13, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done - Assessment remains Class Start, needing a few improvements for upgrade to Class C level. See article's Talk for details. JoeNMLC (talk) 14:41, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting an assessment of 2023 Premier Lacrosse League Season. I've recently done a string of improvements to the article that I think puts it at C-class. It's difficult for me to assess the article myself as I've never assessed an article before and the leagues size makes it difficult to compare to similar articles like that of the NFL. I plan to continue revising the article but I would like to know where it currently stands. Thank you. Jsfxmn(talk) 4:28, 5 August 2023 UTC
Tilaka requesting a reassessment from it's current rating as a start class article. Some clean up and copyediting was done to the article. Chilicave (talk)
Done - @Chilicave, The article had a mixed-class of C and Start so I updated to C-class for all WP. In addition on article Talk, I added the B-class article checklist to begin the review. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 14:35, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done - @CanadianSingh1469, for now, I gave a C-class initial assessment. The Rater assessment tool predicts 90-percent as B-Class article. On article's Talk, I added the "B-class review" checklist to start that evaluation. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 12:51, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Borgenland, the Rater assessment tool predicts this as B-Class article. On article's Talk, I added the "B-class review" checklist to start that discussion. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 19:54, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done - @TheTranarchist, the Rater assessment tool predicts the article as B-Class or higher, so for now rated as C-Class; and recommend article be submitted for B-Class article review. Cheers, JoeNMLC (talk) 19:40, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done - Article remains Class-Start, mainly because of "Overly detailed" tag that I added, and the "factual accuracy" and " neutrality" tags. @Justlookingforthemoment, with updates to resolve these issues the article can be C-Class. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 16:00, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done@Alfie66: there are too many sourcing issues, including a section completely unreferenced. I would suggest you to focus on those rather than further expansion, as the content is there. Once the issues are solved, the article could be upped to B-class. Broc (talk) 15:28, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alfie66:, the B-Class review from 30 November 2016 mentions the unsourced section (Dealing with depth). Possibly find a published instruction book/manual to cite, or remove that content. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 16:14, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am requesting a review of sections 2-7 of Chinese Legalism. I am not requesting a review of sections beyond this, as I have not much worked on and reviewed the sections beyond this, they are older. I am only requesting a review of the writing, concept, the content, the organization. As to the sourcing, the sourcing should be there, but my sources have become disjointed in places with rewriting, I am working on reconfirming and properly organizing them, which can be seen in some places. And I would of course have to introduce additional source content.FourLights (talk) 16:22, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do not specifically require one unless you only wish to review small content. The article is under construction. I have not worked as much last week, I am under the weather. I must gradually make a complete review of the concept of wuwei.FourLights (talk) 19:30, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment requested for Pusheen. Several users (including myself) have made cleanup edits and slight expansions to the article over the past several months. I just noticed that the article is still showing up as a Stub. Top5a (talk) 23:04, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done already, it looks like User:Ipigott assessed the article a few months back bumping it from stub to C class. It's definitely well past a stub. Thanks for improving the article Top5a! C class seems appropriate. Several sentences are not cited (B-class criteria 1), and the article is not quite at Criteria 2 for coverage. See The Yellow Kid for an example of types of coverage going beyond the popularity and merchandising. Good luck, Rjjiii (talk) 05:35, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done GA status is the current assessment and seems correct. FA status requires an FA review. One issue to be addressed before an FA review or project-specific A-class review, is that the article uses a great number of duplicated citations and sometimes includes lower quality sources like Fox News when the higher qualities sources in the same grouping of 2-5 citations likely cover the material. Rjjiii (talk) 05:24, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done Harmony assessed as C-class, Thoth as B-class. I left the default importance ratings -- if they're inaccurate, feel free to fix them. Vaticidalprophet00:58, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Already done - @Magonz - Article was moved on 16 December 2023. Upgraded to B-Class (Rater assessment tool) on 22 December 2023. See article's Talk History for details. JoeNMLC (talk) 00:50, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done - @1namesake1, At article Talk I added WP Engineering, WP Sports. The Rater assessement tool shows ORES prediction of 73.1% for Class-B. For now, I set at Class-Start level. Anyone else here is welcome to re-evaluate and possibly upgrade. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 21:52, 24 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Eric Harroun I gave this page a glowup, I'd argue it meets Good Article standards imo. The article is pretty complete in terms of info; there's not much more reliable info available on him outside of what's currently included. There's also no copyright-free photos of him, based on some searching. I included several general relevant images Toobigtokale (talk) 03:48, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done Assessed as B-class. I agree it's pretty close to GA. As he's deceased, you can use a fair use image without worrying about copyright. Vaticidalprophet00:58, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Requesting reassessment for Nikki Budzinski. This was the version assessed as start-class in May. I think it has improved in quality, perhaps to a C-class, with edits from myself and others, but more importantly it is not low-importance anymore: there are 17 US representatives from Illinois. Heavy Water (talk) 00:23, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there - I am in the process of updating and revising Nursing in Australia and while there is still much to achieve, I feel it is of a higher status than a "start" article.

Jenn Colella — extensively revised and expanded. Self-upgraded from 'Start' to 'C' class on March 11th, but with work now substantively complete, would appreciate an objective opinion for the article's current grade. Thank you. ~ OldBeeg (talk) 10:06, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
