Article Assessment
We are looking to update a stub article, which is just a simple introduction to the topic. There are no references and very little information available in the article. The goal of this class assignment is to update the stub article to somewhere between a B level and GA level article. A B level article has a good deal of information and some references, although possibly incomplete. You are able to get a good amount of information out of the article, but things like pictures and charts may not be included and the formatting may not be perfect. A GA or good article is a step above a B level article and has good information and references. It is just below the quality of an actual encyclopedia. The main problems are generally editing/formatting, and this may be helped out by having a peer review or comparing it to featured articles. To get an article to be between a B and GA level, the content must be complete and easily understood by an reader. The formatting needs to be close to perfect and references need to be very complete and include footnotes/references within the text as opposed to just the list at the bottom of the article.
