Wikipedia:WikiProject United States Constitution/Assessment

An article's assessment is generated from the class parameter in the WikiProject United States Constitution project banner on its talk page (see the template page for more details on the exact syntax):



The following values for the class parameter may be used:

These classes no longer need to be explicitly specified to the template. They are deduced by the namespace of the page the template is placed upon.
 * FA (adds articles to Category:FA-Class United States Constitution articles; should only be used for articles that are currently listed as featured articles)
 * FL (adds articles to Category:FL-Class United States Constitution articles; should only be used for articles that are currently listed as featured lists)
 * A (adds articles to Category:A-Class United States Constitution articles; should only be used for articles that have made considerable progress upon the GA version, an article that is undergoing FA review would be A-class)
 * GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class United States Constitution articles; should only be used for articles that are currently listed as good articles)
 * B (adds articles to Category:B-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * C (adds articles to Category:C-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * List (for articles which consist primarily of a list; adds pages to Category:List-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * Dab (adds pages which are disambiguation pages to Category:Disambig-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * Category (categories in Category:Category-Class United States Constitution articles)
 * Image or File (media in Category:File-Class United States Constitution articles)

The following values for the importance parameter may be used:
 * Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance United States Constitution articles)
 * High (adds articles to Category:High-importance United States Constitution articles)
 * Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance United States Constitution articles)
 * Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance United States Constitution articles)
 * NA (for none articles, do not need importance rating for non-articles)

Articles for which a class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed United States Constitution articles and articles for which an importance is not provided are listed in Category:Unknown-importance United States Constitution articles. The class and importance should be assigned according to the quality scale below.

Quality scale
The quality "class" an article receives should follow Wikipedia's regular guidelines for quality found below.
 * Articles which have not been formerly evaluated, or which have failed a good article review, should not be assigned a quality rating higher than B class. Above that an article needs to go through a formal review process.
