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

How can I get my article rated?

Please list it in the section for assessment requests below.

Who can assess articles?

Any member of the Wales WikiProject is free to add—or change—the rating of an article.

What if I don't agree with a rating?

You can list it in the section for assessment requests below, and someone will take a look at it. Alternately, you can ask any member of the project to rate the article again.

Aren't the ratings subjective?

Yes, they are, but it's the best system we've been able to devise; if you have a better idea, please don't hesitate to let us know!

If you have any other questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department.

An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the {{WikiProject Wales}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Wales
|class=
|importance=
|attention=
|collaboration-candidate=
|past-collaboration=
|peer-review= 
|old-peer-review=
|needs-infobox=
}}

The following values may be used for the class parameter:

• FA (adds articles to Category:FA-Class Wales articles)
• FL (adds articles to Category:FL-Class Wales articles)
• A (adds articles to Category:A-Class Wales articles)
• GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class Wales articles)
• B (adds articles to Category:B-Class Wales articles)
• C (adds articles to Category:C-Class Wales articles)
• Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class Wales articles)
• Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class Wales articles)
• NA (for pages, such as templates or disambiguation pages, where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NA-Class Wales articles)
• List (adds lists to Category:List-Class Wales articles)
• Cat (adds categories to Category:Category-Class Wales articles)

Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Wales articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.

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

{{WikiProject Wales| ... | importance=??? | ...}}

The following values may be used for importance assessments:

• Top - The article is about one of the core topics of Wales. Adds articles to Category:Top-importance Wales articles
• High - The article is about the most well-known or culturally or historically significant aspects of Wales. Adds articles to Category:High-importance Wales articles
• Mid - The article is about a topic within the scope of the project that may or may not be commonly known outside the Wales community. Adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Wales articles
• Low - The article is about a topic that is highly specialized within the Wales field and is not generally common knowledge outside the Wales community. Adds articles to Category:Low-importance Wales articles
• Unknown - Any article which is not assessed on the importance scale is automatically added to the Category:Unknown-importance Wales articles.

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). Thus, subjects with greater popular notability may be rated higher than topics which are arguably more "important" but which are of interest primarily to students of Wales.

Note that general notability need not be from the perspective of editor demographics; generally notable topics should be rated similarly regardless of the country or region in which they hold said notability. Thus, topics which may seem obscure to an outside audience—but which are of high notability in other places—should still be highly rated.

We are currently discussing which articles should be counted as being of Top-importance at Wikipedia:WikiProject Wales/Assessment/Top-importance articles.

If you have made significant changes to an article and would like an outside opinion on a new rating for it, please feel free to list it below.

• Those under Category:Unassessed Wales articles
  • I have created a few articles in this category, and would like them assessed by a third party, as I largely self-enforce a policy of no self-assessment. Diolch! DankJae 01:46, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
