Wikipedia:WikiProject Grenada/Assessment

Welcome to the assessment department of Grenada WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles about Grenada, its governments, people, geography, and history. 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 ratings are done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the WikiProject Grenada project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Grenada articles by quality and Category:Grenada articles by importance, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

Frequently asked questions

 * How can I get my article rated? : Please list it in the section for assessment requests below.
 * Who can assess articles? : Any member of Trinidad and Tobago WikiProject is free to add—or change—the rating of an article.
 * 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. Alternately, you can ask any member of the project to rate the article again.
 * Aren't the ratings subjective? : Yes, they are, 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!

If you have any other questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department.

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

The following values may be used for the class parameter:


 * FA (adds articles to Category:FA-Class Grenada articles)
 * A (adds articles to Category:A-Class Grenada articles)
 * GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class Grenada articles)
 * B (adds articles to Category:B-Class Grenada articles)
 * Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class Grenada articles)
 * Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class Grenada articles)
 * NA (for pages, such as templates or disambiguation pages, where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NA-Class Grenada articles)

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

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 students of Grenada.

''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.''

Importance assessment
An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the WikiProject Grenada project banner on its talk page:



The following values may be used for importance assessments:
 * Top - The article is about one of the core topics of Grenada. Adds articles to Category:Top-importance Grenada articles
 * High - The article is about the most well-known or culturally or historically significant aspects of Grenada. Adds articles to Category:High-importance Grenada articles
 * Mid - The article is about a topic within the field that may or may not be commonly known outside Grenada. Adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Grenada articles
 * Low - The article is about a topic that is highly specialized within the field of Grenada studies and is not generally common knowledge outside that community. Adds articles to Category:Low-importance Grenada articles
