Wikipedia:WikiProject Women's History/Assessment

The WikiProject Women's History assessment system allows the project to monitor the quality of articles in its subject areas, and to prioritize work on these articles. The ratings are also used by the Wikipedia 1.0 program to prepare for static releases of Wikipedia content.

In general, anyone can add or change an article's rating. However, the "GA" and "FA" labels should only be used on articles that have been reviewed and are currently designated as good articles or featured articles, respectively.

In addition to assessing article quality, for which there are generally accepted article assessment criteria, we can also assess articles for their importance in Women's History. Importance is always somewhat subjective and will vary from project to project, so that an article may be of top importance to one project but of low importance to another, regardless of its quality.

To assess an article, consult the standards below; once you have chosen the level that seems to be closest to the article, set the class parameter in the WikiProject banner template to the level's name (omitting "Class" from the end). For example, to rate an article as "B-Class", use  in the banner. Again, the "FA" and "GA" labels should not be added to articles unless they are currently designated as such.

Articles needing assessment
The following articles need assessment! Please take a look and assess them according to the criteria below.


 * Category:Unassessed Women's History articles
 * Salon (gathering) & Salon (France) & Historiography of the salon have identical content, a merge seems appropriate. Xb2u7Zjzc32 (talk) 00:33, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Lorgnette -- please review this stub, I believe it should be at least a start class. Jenette143 (talk) 02:02, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Amanda Swisten - I have added enough content to this stub that I think it can be ranked as a B class article. If not what do I need to do ensure it reaches a B class. Recapbean (talk) 08:24, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Gender roles in post-communist Central and Eastern Europe, I previously assessed the article as C class, missing the reasonable coverage criteria. Since the myself and others have added more to the article, and it could do with re-assessing as to whether it is believed to reasonably cover the topic. -- Cdjp1 (talk) 18:14, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Josina Carolina van Lynden, this page is currently rated as stub but I think it could be rated as a start article. REGIW (talk) 09:49, 8 November 2022 (UTC)

Assessment standards
WikiProject Women's History recommends the following guidelines for assessing an article's importance to the project once it has met the criteria for inclusion under the project's banner. To ask questions or suggest changes, please join the discussion at the project's talk page.

WikiProject Women's History uses the same criteria for grading articles as those set out by the Version 1.0 Editorial Team, as described below. (The examples given are general, and not specific to the project.)
