వికీపీడియా:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment
 | ఈ పేజీ వికీపీడియా మార్గదర్శకాలలో ఒకటి. సర్వామోదం పొందిన ప్రమాణాలను వివరించే పేజీ ఇది. చాలామంది వీటిని ప్రామాణికంగా స్వీకరించారు. అయితే ఇవి శిలాక్షరాలేమీ కాదు. ఈ పేజీలో మార్పులు అవసరమని భావిస్తే చొరవగా ముందుకు వచ్చి తగు మార్పులు చెయ్యండి. కాకపోతే, ఆ మార్పులు విస్తృతంగా ఆమోదిస్తారని మీరు భావిస్తేనే చెయ్యండి. సందేహాస్పదంగా ఉంటే, ముందుగా ఆ మార్పులను చర్చా పేజీ లో ప్రస్తావించండి. |
The following system is used by the Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team for assessing how close we are to a distribution-quality article on a particular topic. The system is based on a letter scheme which reflects principally how factually complete the article is, though the content and language quality are also factors. Once an article reaches the A-Class
, it is considered "complete", although edits will continue to be made.
The quality assessments are mainly performed by members of WikiProjects, who tag talk pages of articles. These tags are then collected by a bot, which then generates output such as a table, log and statistics. For more information see Using the bot. (Note that when more than one WikiProject has rated an article, the bot will take the best rating as the rating of the overall article.) The WP:1.0 team is now setting up to use a second bot to select articles, based on the assessments performed by WikiProjects.
Two levels, GA and FA, are assessments made by external panels, rather than by Wikiprojects. Candidates are nominated by listing them at Good article nominations and Featured article candidates. Judgments are made according to the criteria at What is a good article? and Featured article criteria, and the results are listed at Good articles and Featured articles.
It is vital that people do not take these assessments personally. It is understood that we each have our own opinions of the priorities of the objective criteria for a perfect article. Generally an active project will develop a consensus, though be aware that different projects may use their own variation of the criteria more tuned for the subject area, such as this. Many projects have an assessment team. If you contribute a lot of content to an article you may request an independent assessment.
At present this assessment system is in use in the Wikipedia 1.0 project, and in several hundred WikiProjects on the English Wikipedia. As of December 2013, over 3.8 million articles have been assessed. Several other languages are also using this assessment system or a derivative thereof.
There is a separate scale for rating articles for importance or priority, which is unrelated to the quality scale outlined here. Unlike the quality scale, the priority scale varies based on the project scope. See also a proposed template at {{Importance Scheme}}.
Grades
[మార్చు]Non-standard grades
[మార్చు]Some WikiProjects use a few other assessments for the main namespace that do not fit into the scale. The more popular assessments, in no particular order:
| Label | Criteria | Reader's experience | Editor's experience | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| మూస:Bplus-Class {{Bplus-Class}} |
Detailed, clear and accessible, often with history or images; possible good article nominee. | Useful to nearly all readers. A good treatment of the subject which attempts to be as accessible as possible, with a minimum of jargon. No obvious problems, gaps, excessive information. | May be improved by input from experts to assess where coverage is still missing, and also by illustrations, historical background and further references. Consider peer review or nominating for good article status. If the article is not already fully wikified, now is the time. | Gödel's incompleteness theorems (as of December 2010) |
| మూస:Future-Class {{Future-Class}} |
A topic where details are subject to change often. The article covers a future topic of which no broadcasted version exists so far and all information is subject to change when new information arises from reliable sources. With multiple reliable sources there might be information that contradicts other information in the same or other articles. | Amount of meaningful content varies over time as the projected event draws near. | Material added might be speculation and should be carefully sourced. | Preston City Council election, 2014 (as of September 2013) |
| మూస:Current-Class {{Current-Class}} |
A topic where details are subject to change often. The article covers an event or topic that is currently going on, such as a football game or a sports team's season. | Amount of meaningful content varies over time as the projected event goes on. | Material added might quickly become obsolete. | March 2013 nor'easter (as of September 2013) |
| మూస:Disambig-Class {{Disambig-Class}} |
Any disambiguation page falls under this class. | The page directs the reader to other pages of the same title. | Additions should be made as new articles of that name are created. | Aa River (as of June 2008) |
| మూస:NA-Class {{NA-Class}} |
Any non-article page that does not fit into any other category. | The page does not have article content. | May or may not apply, depending on the type of page. | any WikiProject's internal resources |
| మూస:Redirect-Class {{Redirect-Class}} |
Any redirect falls under this class. | Collapse Into Now | ||
| మూస:Book-Class {{Book-Class}} |
Any Wikipedia book falls under this class. | Book:Canada | ||
| మూస:Template-Class {{Template-Class}} |
Any template falls under this class. | Template:Magnapop | ||
| మూస:Category-Class {{Category-Class}} |
Any category falls under this class. | Category:George Orwell |
Some WikiProjects use additional grades not listed above, such as those used at WP:Comics. Most common are Cat, Dab (for Disambiguation), Current (for ongoing events), Image, Needed, and Template. See the relevant Assessment page for the WikiProject, at Category:WikiProject assessments.
Evolution of an article – an example
[మార్చు]This clickable imagemap, using the article "Atom" as an example, demonstrates the typical profile for an article's development through the levels. Hold the mouse over a number to see key events, and click on a number to see that version of the article. Please note that until 2008, a C-class rating did not exist on the project, and as such this grading is retroactive. Also, in 2006 references were much less used, and inline references were quite rare; a barely-B-Class article today would typically have many more references than this article did in late 2006.
Statistics
[మార్చు]The WP 1.0 bot tracks assessment data (article quality and importance data for individual WikiProjects) assigned via talk page banners. If you would like to add a new WikiProject to the bot's list, please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Using the bot.
The global summary table below is computed by taking the highest quality and importance rating for each assessed article in the main namespace.
