I think the rationale is that because like 90% of the project's articles are going to fall in the mid-importance assessment, and so many articles weren't given an importance rating, it was felt that we could default them to that assessment rather than need to rate thousands of articles all with

Is it possible to get a tracing category added that tracks articles not associated with a task force? I know there will be articles that don't need it, but that way we can easily find actual articles that need to be assigned to their appropriate task force?

I was wondering why you had a class which was completely unused. Maybe time to retire it? I think I've fixed the assessments - your task forces were using a different scale to the main banner. Now they are using the custom class mask — Martin

Why does the template default to "MID-importance" rating? Assessments made without regard to articles seems meaningless. If the wikiproject doesn't want importance ratings, they can be removed from the banner --

Should this template also have the reassess, needs-map, needs-jctint, needs-shield and attention-mtf parameters like USRD has, that would create clear lists of stuff that has to be done.

It's a good idea to separate it out by task force. But why is this template using a different kind of coding then the USRD template, they seem to serve the same purpose.

This project uses mid as the average since it's the middle of the scale. What other projects do or don't do is irrelevant to this project's practices.

At least make templates and categories default to NA-importance. These types of pages don't have any importance. --

I purged the unassessed category, so it's cleared out now. Thanks for that; I figured it was something simple. –
