User:LaughingVulcan/sandbox/Closing Out Fishing Assessments

WIP - This is the process I use to close out assessments in the WikiProject Fishing/Assessment/Drive WP Fishing Assessment Drive, and it may apply to the wider field of assessment once the initial drive is over. At present, they are objective rules which may use subjective standards for evaluating the consensus.

Process:

If there are sufficient opinions for consensus

 * Note: This is a very fluid evaluation, as some articles may have consensus with 2 reviewers commenting, others articles may require more.  Also, this does not yet treat how to determine if consensus exists.


 * In the "Secretary and date closed" block, include your signature. (" ~ ")


 * In the "Result:" box, summarize the result you will apply to the article. Use as few words as possible, and don't explain if consensus appears to be unanimous.


 * In the "Archived Discussions" box, add the article link to the Recently Closed: point. Use:  " Pagename Discussion on Pagename ".


 * C/P the entry to WikiProject Fishing/Assessment/Drive_Archive.


 * Go to the Article's talk page. Edit the page.


 * On the template, fill in the variables with the appropriate values - Date (date closed) from secretary block, Class, Importance, Reviewers, Completed=Y.  Class and Importance should be same as what you will put in the  template momentarily.

Assessment closed. Also edited Fishing project rating template to reflect consensus. ~
 * Below the "Added assessment template" line (assuming it's there,) add:


 * Edit the template.  Change (or add) the class= and importance= variables to the result of the consensus.

Edited fishingassessment and WP:FISHING templates with result of article assessment consensus.
 * Save the page with Edit Summary:


 * A "sufficient" time later, remove the links you created in the Assessment Drive page on Archived Discussions.
