Welcome to the assessment department of the Ukraine WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles about Ukraine. 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 Ukraine}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Ukraine articles by quality, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.
Frequently asked questions
- 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 Ukraine 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.
Instructions
An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the {{WikiProject Ukraine}} project banner on its talk page:
{{WikiProject Ukraine
|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 Ukraine articles)
- A (adds articles to Category:A-Class Ukraine articles)
- GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class Ukraine articles)
- B (adds articles to Category:B-Class Ukraine articles)
- Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class Ukraine articles)
- Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class Ukraine articles)
- NA (for pages, such as templates or disambiguation pages, where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NA-Class Ukraine articles)
Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Ukraine articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.
Quality scale
Importance scale
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 Ukraine.
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 a Western audience—but which are of high notability in other places—should still be highly rated.
Status | Template | Meaning of Status |
---|---|---|
Top | {{Top-Class}} | This article is of the utmost importance to this project, as it forms the basis of all information. |
High | {{High-Class}} | This article is fairly important to this project, as it covers a general area of knowledge. |
Mid | {{Mid-Class}} | This article is relatively important to this project, as it fills in some more specific knowledge of certain areas. |
Low | {{Low-Class}} | This article is of little importance to this project, but it covers a highly specific area of knowledge or an obscure piece of trivia. |
None | None | This article is of unknown importance to this project. It remains to be analyzed. |
The following are guidelines as to how to rate articles by importance:
- Top-Class for: articles directly related to Ukraine, like History of Ukraine, Economy of Ukraine, Ukrainian language, Ukrainians, etc. Also include shall be the important biographical figures, like Taras Shevchenko, Mykola Gogol, Bohdan Khmelnytsky, President, Prime Minister, etc. In addition, articles which are about important events, history related, or culture (Chernobyl disaster, Holodomor, Kievan Rus', Zaporozhian Cossacks, Bandura).
- High-Class for: Other major political figures like Yulia Tymoshenko, Oleksandr Moroz, Andriy Shevchenko, etc. Also included shall be major architectural landmarks like Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, Pochaiv Lavra, or Saint Sophia Cathedral, Kyiv. In addition, subdivision-related articles shall High-Class: administrative centers of oblasts/Crimea, Galicia (Central Europe), Bukovyna, Volyn, Donbas, and Carpathian Ruthenia.
- Mid-Class for: important, but not major localities (Podil), other important architectural landmarks (Swallow's Nest (Crimea), Vorontsov Palace, etc.)
- Low-Class for: small or less known localities (Kobyzhcha, Olevsk, etc), biographies, constructions, events, etc.
We are currently discussing which articles should be counted as being of Top-importance at Wikipedia:WikiProject Ukraine/Assessment/Top-importance articles.
Requesting an assessment
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.
- BetterMe Changed a whole bunch of stuff on this page and re-organised to remove the majority (if not all) of the promotional gubbins from this article, as well as general fixing of other areas. Looking to get it re-assessed if possible. CommissarDoggoTalk? 14:49, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- Vasiliy Tairov I think I've managed to make it no longer a stub, so it should probably be re-assessed. Thanks! DeemDeem52 (talk) 16:46, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Tornado Company (Ukraine) - Made some slight edits, although much of the article was done by M Waleed. Ominae (talk) 03:06, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
