Wikipedia:WikiProject Furry/Assessment

Instructions
An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the WikiProject Furry project banner on its talk page



The following values may be used for the class parameter:


 * [[Image:Featured article star.png|16px]]FA (adds articles to Category:FA-Class furry articles)
 * A (adds articles to Category:A-Class furry articles)
 * [[Image:Symbol support vote.svg|14px]] GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class furry articles)
 * B (adds articles to Category:B-Class furry articles)
 * C (adds articles to Category:C-Class furry articles)
 * Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class furry articles)
 * Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class furry articles)
 * Dab (adds pages to Category:Disambig-Class furry articles)
 * Template (adds pages to Category:Template-Class furry articles)
 * Cat (adds pages to Category:Category-Class furry articles)
 * List (adds pages to Category:List-Class furry articles)
 * FL (adds pages to Category:FL-Class furry articles)
 * NA (adds pages to Category:NA-Class furry articles for pages where assessment is unnecessary)

Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed furry articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.

The following values may be used for the importance parameter:


 * Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance furry articles)
 * High (adds articles to Category:High-importance furry articles)
 * Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance furry articles)
 * Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance furry articles)
 * NA (used in cases where the page being tagged is a template, category, or disambiguation page; rates it as "NA-importance" and doesn't add it to a category)

If the parameter is omitted entirely, the article will be added to Category:Unknown-importance furry articles. The importance should be assigned according to the importance scale below.

The following parameters are used to assess specific needs for individual articles and are used in the form:




 * attention=yes (adds articles to Category:Furry articles needing attention) for cases where immediate attention is needed.

Importance scale
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 those attempting to study the furry fandom.

''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.''
