Wikipedia:WikiProject LGBT studies/Assessment

Assessing the quality of Wikipedia's LGBT articles lets us recognise excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work. The quality ratings also play a role in the WP:1.0 program, which the WikiProject uses to help automate some of the assessing process.

Assessment is done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the WikiProject LGBT studies project banner. This causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:LGBT articles by quality, which serve as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist. WP:1.0 also produces a statistics page, and a log of articles assessed.

Unassessed and recently assessed articles

 * Category:Unassessed LGBT articles contains articles that need a valid quality class.
 * LGBT articles by quality log shows WP:LGBT articles that have been assessed, reassessed, renamed, or removed from the project's scope within the past seven days.

Quality scale
WikiProject LGBT Studies uses the same criteria for grading articles as set out by the Version 1.0 Editorial Team. If you are not sure what class an article falls under, leave a note on the WikiProject's talkpage, and someone will help you out.

Importance
An importance parameter has not been added to the project tag for talk pages, though this has been proposed. A list of core articles is available at WP:LGBT/Core.

Requesting an assessment

 * If you have made significant changes to an article and would like someone to reassess it (up to and including B-class), please post a reassessment request at WT:LGBT.
 * For improving an article beyond B-class, see WP:GA to nominate an article as a good article and WP:FAC to nominate an article as a featured article.
 * You can request a peer review for an article at WP:PR.
