Wikipedia:WikiProject King Arthur/Assessment

Welcome to the assessment department of the King Arthur WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's Arthurian studies related articles. 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 WP King Arthur project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:King Arthur articles by quality and Category:King Arthur 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 the King Arthur WikiProject is free to add or change the rating of an article.
 * Why didn't the reviewer leave any comments? : Unfortunately, due to the volume of articles that need to be assessed, we are unable to leave detailed comments in most cases. If you have particular questions, you might ask the person who assessed the article; they will usually be happy to provide you with their reasoning.
 * 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 others questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department.

Quality assessments
After assessing an article's quality, any comments on the assessment can be added to the article's talk page.

Importance assessment
An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the WP King Arthur 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 Arthurian studies. Adds articles to Category:Top-importance King Arthur articles
 * High - The article is about the most well-known or culturally or historically significant aspects of Arthurian studies. Adds articles to Category:High-importance King Arthur articles
 * Mid - The article is about a topic within the Arthurian studies field that may or may not be commonly known outside the Arthurian studies community. Adds articles to Category:Mid-importance King Arthur articles
 * Low - The article is about a topic that is highly specialized within the Arthurian studies field and is not generally common knowledge outside the community. Adds articles to Category:Low-importance King Arthur articles
 * Unknown - Any article which has not yet been assessed on the importance scale is automatically added to the Category:Unknown-importance King Arthur articles.


 * For discussion regarding which articles should be counted as which level of importance to the project, please see WikiProject King Arthur/Importance.

 * Importance assessment request: Perceval. Written by the famous French poet, Chétien de Troyes, Perceval (The Grail Knight) plays an integral part in the construction and representation of the Arthurian time period's fictitious characters. The article is listed as low importance, however, I feel as though middle importance it due. ItsPugle 01:20, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
