Wikipedia:WikiProject Nigeria/Assessment

Welcome to the assessment department of the Nigeria WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's Nigeria 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 WikiProject Nigeria project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Nigeria articles by quality and Category:Nigeria articles by importance, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

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



The following values may be used for importance assessments:
 * Top - adds articles to Category:Top-importance Nigeria articles
 * High - adds articles to Category:High-importance Nigeria articles
 * Mid - adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Nigeria articles
 * Low - adds articles to Category:Low-importance Nigeria articles

Importance scale
Importance must be regarded as a relative term. If importance values are applied within this project, these only reflect the perceived importance to this project. An article judged to be "Top-Class" in one context may be only "Mid-Class" in another. 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).
