One of the main tasks of the WikiProject Africa is to assess the quality of Wikipedia's Africa articles. The resulting article ratings are used within the project to help in recognising excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work. They also play a role in theWP:1.0 program, which the WikiProject uses to help automate some of the assessing process.

The assessment is done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the{{WikiProject Africa}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories ofCategory:Africa articles by quality andCategory:Africa articles by importance, which serve as the foundation for WP:1.0 bot updates which produce astatistics page, and alog of articles asessed.

How to assess

Quality

edit

An article's quality assessment is recorded using the|class= parameter in the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Articles that have the{{WikiProject Africa}} banner template on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.

The following standard grades may be used to describe the quality of mainspace articles (seeWikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):

FA(forfeatured articlesonly; adds them to theFA-Class Africa articles category)  FA
FL(forfeatured listsonly; adds them to theFL-Class Africa articles category)  FL
A(for articles that passed a formalpeer reviewonly; adds them to theA-Class Africa articles category)  A
GA(forgood articlesonly; adds them to theGA-Class Africa articles category)  GA

C(for substantial articles; adds them to theC-Class Africa articles category)C
Start(for developing articles; adds them to theStart-Class Africa articles category)Start
Stub(for basic articles; adds them to theStub-Class Africa articles category)Stub
List(forstand-alone lists; adds them to theList-Class Africa articles category)List
NA(for any other pages where assessment is unwarranted; adds them to theNA-Class Africa pages category)NA
???(articles for which a valid class has not yet been provided are listed in theUnassessed Africa articles category)???

For non-mainspace content, the following values may be used:

FM(forfeatured mediaonly; adds them to theFM-Class Africa pages category)  FM
Category(forcategories; adds them to theCategory-Class Africa pages category)Category
Draft(fordrafts; adds them to theDraft-Class Africa pages category)Draft

Portal(forportal pages; adds them to thePortal-Class Africa pages category)Portal
Project(forproject pages; adds them to theProject-Class Africa pages category)Project
Template(fortemplates andmodules; adds them to theTemplate-Class Africa pages category)Template

The following non-standard assessment grades for mainspace content may be used at a WikiProject's discretion:

Disambig(fordisambiguation pages; adds them to theDisambig-Class Africa pages category)Disambig
Redirect(forredirect pages; adds them to theRedirect-Class Africa pages category)Redirect

Quality scale

WikiProject Africa uses the same criteria for grading articles as set out by the Version 1.0 Editorial Team. If you are not sure what class an article falls under, leave a note on the WikiProject'stalkpage, and someone will help you out.

WikiProject content quality grading scheme
ClassCriteriaReader's experienceEditing suggestionsExample
  FAThe article has attainedfeatured article status by passing an in-depth examination by impartial reviewers fromWP:Featured article candidates.

    3. well-researched: it is a thorough and representative survey of the relevant literature; claims areverifiable against high-qualityreliable sources and are supported by inline citationswhere appropriate;
    4. neutral: it presents viewsfairly and without bias;
    5. stable: it is not subject to ongoingedit wars and its content does not change significantly from day to day, except in response to the featured article process; and
    6. compliant withWikipedia's copyright policy and free ofplagiarism ortoo-close paraphrasing.
  2. It follows thestyle guidelines, including the provision of:

  4. Length. It stays focused on the main topic without going into unnecessary detail and usessummary style where appropriate.
Professional, outstanding, and thorough; a definitive source for encyclopedic information.No further content additions should be necessary unless new information becomes available; further improvements to the prose quality are often possible.Giraffe

More detailed criteria
The article meets thefeatured list criteria:
  1. Prose. It features professional standards of writing.
  2. Lead. It has an engaginglead that introduces the subject and defines the scope and inclusion criteria.
  3. Comprehensiveness.

  AThe article is well organized and essentially complete, having been examined by impartial reviewers from a WikiProject or elsewhere. Good article status is not a requirement for A-Class.
More detailed criteria
The article meets theA-Class criteria:
Provides a well-written, clear and complete description of the topic, as described inWikipedia:Article development. It should be of a length suitable for the subject, appropriately structured, and be well referenced by a broad array of reliable sources. It should be well illustrated, with no copyright problems. Only minor style issues and other details need to be addressed before submission as afeatured article candidate. See the A-Class assessment departments of some of the larger WikiProjects (e.g.WikiProject Military history).
Very useful to readers. A fairly complete treatment of the subject. A non-expert in the subject would typically find nothing wanting.Expert knowledge may be needed to tweak the article, and style problems may need solving.WP:Peer review may help.N/A
  GAThe article meetsall of thegood article criteria, and has been examined by one or more impartial reviewers fromWP:Good article nominations.
More detailed criteria
Agood article is:
  1. Well-written:
    1. the prose is clear, concise, andunderstandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct; and
    2. it complies with theManual of Style guidelines forlead sections,layout,words to watch,fiction, andlist incorporation.
  2. Verifiable withno original research:
    1. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance withthe layout style guideline;
    2. reliable sources arecited inline. All content thatcould reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);
    3. it containsno original research; and
    4. it contains nocopyright violations orplagiarism.
  3. Broad in its coverage:

  4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoingedit war or content dispute.
  6. Illustrated, if possible, bymedia such asimages,video, oraudio:
    1. media aretagged with theircopyright statuses, andvalid non-free use rationales are provided fornon-free content; and
    2. media arerelevant to the topic, and havesuitable captions.
Useful to nearly all readers, with no obvious problems; approaching (though not necessarily equalling) the quality of a professional publication.Some editing by subject and style experts is helpful; comparison with an existingfeatured article on a similar topic may highlight areas where content is weak or missing.Malawi
BThe article meetsall of theB-Class criteria. It is mostly complete and does not have major problems, but requires some further work to reachgood article standards.
More detailed criteria
  1. The article issuitably referenced, withinline citations. It hasreliable sources, and any important or controversial material which islikely to be challenged is cited. Any format of inline citation is acceptable: the use of<ref> tags andcitation templates such as{{cite web}} is optional.
  2. The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for anA-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.
  3. The article has a defined structure. Content should be organized into groups of related material, including alead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.
  4. The article is reasonably well-written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but does not need to beof the standard of featured articles. TheManual of Style does not need to be followed rigorously.
  5. The article contains supporting materials where appropriate. Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams, aninfobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.
  6. The article presents its content in anappropriately understandable way. It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. The article should not assume unnecessary technical background andtechnical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.
Readers are not left wanting, although the content may not be complete enough to satisfy a serious student or researcher.A few aspects of content and style need to be addressed. Expert knowledge may be needed. The inclusion of supporting materials should be considered if practical, and the article checked for general compliance with theManual of Style and relatedstyle guidelines.Gorilla
CThe article is substantial but is still missing important content or contains irrelevant material. The article should have some references to reliable sources, but may still have significant problems or require substantialcleanup.
More detailed criteria
The article cites more than one reliable source and is better developed in style, structure, and quality than Start-Class, but it fails one or more of the criteria for B-Class. It may have some gaps or missing elements, or need editing for clarity, balance, or flow.
Useful to a casual reader, but would not provide a complete picture for even a moderately detailed study.Considerable editing is needed to close gaps in content and solvecleanup problems.Cape Verde
StartAn article that is developing but still quite incomplete. It may or may not cite adequate reliable sources.
More detailed criteria
The article has a meaningful amount of good content, but it is still weak in many areas. The article has one or more of the following:
  • A useful picture or graphic
  • Multiple links that help explain or illustrate the topic
  • A subheading that fully treats an element of the topic
  • Multiple subheadings that indicate material that could be added to complete the article
Provides some meaningful content, but most readers will need more.Providing references toreliable sources should come first; the article also needs substantial improvement in content and organisation. Improve the grammar, spelling, and writing style; decrease the use of jargon.Agriculture in Sierra Leone
StubA very basic description of the topic. Meets none of the Start-Class criteria.Provides very little meaningful content; may be little more than a dictionary definition. Readers probably see insufficiently developed features of the topic and may not see how the features of the topic are significant.Any editing or additional material can be helpful. The provision of meaningful content should be a priority. The best solution for a Stub-class Article to step up to a Start-class Article is to add in referenced reasons of why the topic is significant.Adendema
ListMeets the criteria of astand-alone list orset index article, which is an article that contains primarily a list, usually consisting of links to articles in a particular subject area.There is no set format for a list, but its organization should be logical and useful to the reader.Lists should be lists of live links to Wikipedia articles, appropriately named and organized.List of African countries by population density
CategoryAnycategory falls under this class.Categories are mainly used to group together articles within a particular subject area.Large categories may need to be split into one or more subcategories. Be wary of articles that have been miscategorized.Category:Africa
DisambigAnydisambiguation page falls under this class.The page serves to distinguish multiple articles that share the same (or similar) title.Additions should be made as new articles of that name are created. Pay close attention to the proper naming of such pages, as they often do not need "(disambiguation)" appended to the title.Sahara (disambiguation)
FileAny page in thefile namespace falls under this class.The page contains an image, a sound clip or other media-related content.Make sure that the file is properly licensed and credited.File:Elephants in tanzania.jpg
PortalAny page in theportal namespace falls under this class.Portals are intended to serve as "main pages" for specific topics.Editor involvement is essential to ensure that portals are kept up to date.Portal:Africa
ProjectAllWikiProject-related pages fall under this class.Project pages are intended to aid editors in article development.Develop these pages into collaborative resources that are useful for improving articles within the project.Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa
TemplateAnytemplate falls under this class. The most common types of templates includeinfoboxes andnavboxes.Different types of templates serve different purposes. Infoboxes provide easy access to key pieces of information about the subject. Navboxes are for the purpose of grouping together related subjects into an easily accessible format, to assist the user in navigating between articles.Infoboxes are typically placed at the upper right of an article, while navboxes normally go across the very bottom of a page. Beware of too many different templates, as well as templates that give either too little, too much, or too specialized information.Template:Countries of Africa
NAAny non-article page that fits no other classification.The page contains no article content.Look out for misclassified articles. Currently, many NA-class articles may need to be re-classified.Congo Republic

Importance

edit

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

{{WikiProject Africa|importance=???}}

The following values may be used for theimportance parameter to describe the relative importance of the article within the project (seeWikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Priority of topic for assessment criteria):

Top (adds articles toCategory:Top-importance Africa articles) Top 
High (adds articles toCategory:High-importance Africa articles) High 
Mid (adds articles toCategory:Mid-importance Africa articles) Mid 
Low (adds articles toCategory:Low-importance Africa articles) Low 
NA (adds articles toCategory:NA-importance Africa articles) NA 
??? (articles for which a valid importance rating has not yet been provided are listed inCategory:Unknown-importance Africa articles) ???
