| Article progress grading scheme | |
|---|---|
 FA | Reserved exclusively for articles that have received "Featured article" status afterpeer review, and meet the current criteria for featured articles. Example:Algorithm |
 A | The article provides a well-written, reasonably clear and complete description of the topic, as described inHow to write a Great Article. It includes a well-written introduction to the topic, and an appropriate series of headings to break up the article. It should have sufficient external literature references, preferably from textbooks or peer-reviewed papers rather than websites. It contain illustrations where apropriate (with no copyright problems). It should be at the stage where it meets the criteria for or is aGood article. Example:Ammonia (as of Oct 2005). |
| B | The article is "almost there" but it may be missing one of the following: references, balance of content, or an important section. Alternatively, the English may need a comprehensive rewrite to make it flow, or it may need to be edited to follow standard Englishspelling andconventions. For maths articles, articles which are overly technical and fail to explain the basics would often end up here. Example:Antarctica (as of Oct 2005) is a good start but contains too many lists, and it needs more prose content & references. |
| Start | The article has a good amount of content, but it is still weak in certain areas, and may lack a table. For example an article on Africa might cover the geography well, but be weak on history and culture. Example:Arithmetic (as of Oct 2005). |
| Stub | The article is either a very short article or a stub that will need a lot of work to bring it to A-Class level, although there may be a significant amount of material in the article. |
Need: The article's importance, regardless of its quality
| Top | Subject is a must-have for a print encyclopaedia |
| High | Subject contributes a depth of knowledge |
| Mid | Subject fills in more minor details |
| Low | Subject is peripheral knowledge, possibly trivial |
Quality: current article quality as per thegrading scheme
| FA | Featured article |
| A | Article is well written, reasonably complete and referenced; possiblefeatured article candidate. |
 GA | This is agood article |
| B | We have a decent article, but it needs further editing |
| Start | Significant cleanup or expansion needed. |
| Stub | Article missing or miserable, or a stub. |
