Wikipedia:WikiProject Conservatism/Assessment/A-Team

A-Teams are small groups of at least three editors who work closely together to improve an article to the vaunted A-Class. Collaborative editing is one of the main attractions at Wikipedia. And promoting an article to A-Class on an A-Team is a rewarding experience. An A-Class article presents a complete and thorough encyclopedic treatment of a subject, such as might be written by an expert in the field. An article that undergoes this process must be reviewed by at least two members. The A-Class rating is the highest assessment level that may be assigned by an individual WikiProject; higher assessment levels are granted only by Wikipedia-wide independent assessment processes.
