835:(for the same reason, they're very powerful). The basic principle is this. In cases where there are unique considerations and/or some of the generic considerations are not applicable (or less so), people have to take into account the considerations when deciding the grade of a given article. Now, assuming some effort goes into this, you may as well do it once then save having to do it every time thereafter. However, becuase the exemplars may have a strong impact on the assessments, ideally the first time a decision is made, an exemplar should be selected that is considered as close to the generic one as possible. Another thing worth considering. 1357:
at the bottom because I was trying to avoid people thinking "GA is better than A" or vice versa; it's not better, it's just different. (And it's obvious that an FA is better than a Stub) If we could put a border between the two sections, it'd be even better. My preference is to have the WikiProject-based assessments at the top, simply because that's what the page is mainly about; we're not really trying to define what a Featured Article is. If the consensus is for FA etc at the top, I don't mind switching them, though. Adding List-Class is definitely a good idea, I should have included that, my mistake. Very useful comments, thanks!

when desired, provided they've been carefully selected and calibrated. Incidentally, this also answers the question in FAQ about more or less grades. The thing people are generally thinking when they ask this is: I think there should be more precision (or less, though I wouldn't recommend less here). So this is one way to get the best of both worlds -- simplicity plus precision when needed. Anyhow, hope this background and explanation is useful but fire away with questions if not. Cheers
463:) We should simplify the basic definitions of each class. The descriptions are quite detailed, but that may mean simply that people don't bother to read them properly. We could simply do a copyedit and chop out a lot of wording; that would make them easier to follow, but we may lose some of the rigour if actual examples or nuances of meaning are lost. Hence my proposal for a "summary style" approach; this will allow us to have very clear, simple definitions for routine use. 322:... perhaps a link to those pages would be better than trying to sum up what's needed in a table ... and I didn't know what to say about A-class. I should add that I and others are putting major energy into the GA process. I know how A-class is defined, but I'm kind of wondering what the function of A-class is ... there might have been a feeling that the GA process should be avoided for a variety of reasons. This would be a good time for people to post a message at 1124: 355:
to specific points of procedure. I personally think that GA-Class is the one that doesn't belong in the scheme, but not because I don't like GA (I'm a big fan!). It's because it's not a project-based assessment. However, we need to work with the system that the consensus likes to use, and that will (for the foreseeable future) include both GA and A. I'll try to get things started this week from my side. Thanks again,

less strictly/harshly or leniently, and with different assumed interpretation of the various elements. Don't get me wrong, I think it's very important to describe, to orient to what features people need to look at, but then at the end of the day someone can always ask: so what does that actually look like? Just as a picture tells a thousand words, so does an example of an article!

time since the conference getting these details done; fortunately, the group of us active here over the last couple of days were unanimous in our opinions about changes (because we'd agreed on the substance of these earlier). The alternative - letting things drift along for a few more days - was much worse than last-minute wording changes. Sorry that we didn't things clearer.

you how consistent you were overall and tell you which articles were anomalous, if any. Include at least two or three of the articles in the scheme so you will be able to see how the rest scale in between. If you can organize more than one judge to make comparisons, even better, and I can give you feedback on each judge's consistency and the agreement between them.

standard for Start-Class). We may also be able to consider how we handle the different aspects of assessment (article length, quality, technical aspects, aesthetics, etc). We have one very knowledgable contributor offering to help, and I think we should use this opportunity to make the scheme more rigorous. Any thoughts?

to find a way of showing how the various requirements change at different rates from one level to the next, and to provide a checklist for quick reference. Naturally, we would hope that the raters would also read the detailed descriptions, which would help in understanding qualitatively what "75%" means.Ā :) --
288:, and it would make sense to do everything at once. If you're up for working on this, I'll try and recruit a few others for their input. Bearing in mind that this scheme is used by over 1000 projects, we need to make sure that any rewrite represents a consensus of several interested people. Thanks! 1806:, before an assessment scheme had been organized. This was relevant when we wrote the assessment scheme in 2006, but I doubt if many people remember this system now! Please take a look at the version that has been uploaded, and let us know if there's anything else you see that doesn't fit. Thanks, 1693:
In this table, each number is a "semi-quantitative" percent progress towards achieving the goal for that column. Of course, the numbers are a bit fuzzy and subjective, and I just made them up, so they are certainly open to discussion. I'm just presenting this table as a proof of concept; the point is
1502:
I agree with the discussion above that there should be a simplified version of the assessment scheme, even if just as a summary or supplement of the more complete and nuanced version. How about taking it to the extreme? A simple checklist could help give an overview at a glance without having to read
1356:
Thanks! I think I agree with some of these. For the second point, we're disagreeing about the meaning of "peer review". I meant an internal peer review WITHIN THE WIKIPROJECT. I should probably find a better way of saying that. I love that Atom example, that's a must for this page. I put FA etc
978:
This can be extended across projects. This would simply require choosing a number of articles in your project as well as some from another project also doing a calibration exercise. All articles can be scaled jointly and tests conducted to see how successful the exercise was. It's preferable that the

The person interested in tightening up the assessment scheme looks to be quite busy elsewhere (he had warned me), so maybe we should make a start here anyway. However, I have an idea - I wonder if we should consider having a simple form, but if people want to know more detail they can click for more
1709:
Yes, I like this! As an organic chemist, I'm happy to use numbers in a fuzzy, subjective way to convey concepts, but I'm sure the physical chemists (and some others!) might say, "How do you define these percentages!" I wonder if we could put these numbers into a graphic format, which might put the
1057:
I'm not sure I followed that either, but the general thrust seems to be adding examples, or proceeding to describe the problem by comparing examples, and I'm all for that. My intention in simplifying the table was only to take out some words that I couldn't follow, to make the table easier to read,
946:
I understand but my standard response is that the payoffs outway the up-front time, often by a large factor, and of course anything worth doing takes some effort and coordination. The only reason most of us can buy a thermometer and easily, yet precisely, measure temperature at will is that a lot of

However, it may be very useful to have specific examples for more unusual kinds of article. In these cases, for the sake of comparability, I would advise people in the relevant projects to very carefully select examples that are as close to the same quality as those in the generic scheme as possible

for the original proposal. We have a good scheme that works well, but there are variations in standards. It should be possible to sharpen the boundaries of the scheme by including additional examples to indicate specific detail about the levels (the lowest standard for Start-Class, vs. the highest
354:
Good! A-Class predates GA, and GA was added into the scheme later. It still fulfils a useful role for some projects, and there are some projects (such as WP:MILHIST) that have had a wariness concerning the GA process - I don't think that would change at this point, since they don't relate any more

The scheme gives broad classifications, which is fine for many purposes. If people are interested in adding, I would recommend selecting candidate articles and experienced assessors quickly doing pairwise comparisons between the candidates and existing exemplars. Given relatively little data, I can

I'd strongly advise against using different examples/exemplars in different versions of the generic scheme (not that anyone has suggested it) because I have seen empirical cases in which exemplars are changed in a scheme that otherwise remains the same, and there is a severe impact on ratings (e.g.

779:
From experience, the examples tend to be the most powerful part of the process, and as I've said elsewhere I think it is excellent you have examples. The description of an article (like the description of most complex things) can be interpreted in different ways, and most importantly here, more or

There have been two proposals recently relating to assessment, and both seem to be reasonable (IMHO). They would both involve some rewriting and recalibrating, and therefore I think we should consider both proposals at the same time. I'm adding a third proposal, which is in effect how I think the

for proof), it would be perfectly reasonable to set up subpages as needed for this - especially if we add a range of examples, as planned. That's one thing I like about the wiki framework - you can keep it simple on the main page, but have more detail for those who want to go deeper. I think I'd

This went live yesterday? It seems from the revision history that changes were still being made until late yesterday, and no-one mentioned here that it was considered complete. I don't think there are any big problems, as it doesn't deviate in substance from WPBIO or MILHIST's criteria, but it
1421:
OK, I'm glad you asked that! I think that on Friday I'd like to officially announce that C-Class is going ahead, and these are the new definitions, etc. We will have to leave the GA/A issue for now, though I think we can tighten up on peer review a little bit. I think we can reach consensus on

Good measurement instruments and procedures are a cornerstone of industry and technology -- without common standards, many things are impossible in industry. The same idea applies to Knowledge as a whole. If editors can quickly, yet precisely, measure against calibrated standards as they work and
885:
After looking through the discussion here, I think it might be instructive to describe an 'ideal' process, and to work back from there to what's doable. Pretty much every issue that has come up here is fairly common in assessment. I hope it will be easier to see why from the ideal. Please keep in
865:
Just as extra increments on a tape measure (or any instrument) provide additional precision in a region of a continuum, so additional exemplars provide additional precision in the region (border between adjacent classifications). So additional exemplars in selected regions allow greater precision
857:
In keeping with the general principle of having a simple scheme with flexibility for cases that require or warrant special attention, I want to add that additional borderline examples could also be listed on a separate page, only to be used when necessary (e.g. if start vs B is a difficult call).
889:
It may also turn out something closer to the ideal is achievable with available skills than I realize. With some ingenuity, Knowledge could be a first for online ratings en mass by developing a top-class process based on solid foundations! OK, not likely, but possible. It's already considerably
974:
This should be quite quick for someone who is reasonably familiar with the set of articles, if the assessor only needs to refer to them when it's hard to say which is better. Most judgments should be quick and only a portion take more time. The payoff -- for your project you get a much clearer
618:
approach: Have one short, succinct description of the scheme, but then have a sub-page (or sub-pages) to give more detail. That way, someone who just wants to "get the general idea" can do so, but the reviewer who is agonising over where something is B or Start can look for some more detailed
830:
On that note, I'd also be careful changing the examples over time if you want consistent grading over time. Having said that, there are ways to link new to old if this is a must and I can advise and help. It takes some time and effort to make sure changing examples doesn't change the relative

And something that has arisen with a few Biography articles where even everything known about a notable, obscure subject still isn't much: maybe some sort of "bastard" A/Start grade for articles that are as complete as reasonably possible, but still so very short that many stubs are longer.

becomes much harder to be deemed in a category). The relevant research was thorough and very controlled. I can't say exactly to what extent it applies to this scheme, but in general it's better to keep things consistent as much as possible (provided of course they're sound and working!).
265:), says, in its entirety: "Keep policy, guideline and procedure pages short, or else people won't read them, more people will leave the project, and less people will join the project." That's my experience too ... the shorter the instructions, the more likely they are to get read. - Dan 1314:
I am not sure about the comment about considering a peer review at "A Class" level, as it is done at high-B class for most articles in preparation for GAC. (This may be the reason why Peer review is flooded with articlesā€”but unless Peer review change their policies to review articles
1824:, as it sets a sort of "quality floor" that was once not very well defined. Originally, articles that were A's and GA's were accepted, with some B's and some Starts either accepted or not accepted in the release versions. This now sets some sort of "hard" requirement. 613:
This was my suggestion for dealing with the first two proposals, which at first glance would appear to be irreconcilable. How can we make the scheme even more nuanced and rigorous, yet make it simpler to understand? I think we can accomplish this through use of the
771:
Hi all. On Dank55's suggested simplication. I would certainly keep the current version with a more detailed description. However, for those who have become accustomed to it, I doubt they will refer to it in detail often, and an abbreviated version could be used to

Obviously, this requires coordination if it crosses editors and particularly projects. However, the result could be a nice list across projects of articles from the worst to higher quality that everyone can refer to pluse the benefits to the project mentioned.
53:
For the assessment table, I'm wondering if we couldn't say more or less the same thing using fewer words, here's a suggestion. I've included a description of a "list", which was commented out of the table; feel free to delete it if it's not relevant.
805:
I've just noticed my comments are similar to the summary style idea above. If many are familiar with the existing scheme though, I'd still argue that keeping it and adding a short version would be easiest, but either way the principle is the same
404:
Sounds great. Or, if you'd like to put more information in the chart, based on the questions people ask, that's fine too. What didn't look right to me about it was the low meaning-to-words ratio, or maybe I just didn't get the meaning. - Dan

Sorry I didn't see this, I've been very busy offline; this proposal is well worth looking at. I'm a great supporter of KISS, but the wiki approach tends to mean that often people simply add rather than rewriting. There has also been a

However, it's like everything, it does take time and coordination. Hopefully though, this helps in explaining various issues and how they all fit together in the bigger picture even if nobody actually ends up participating.

mind that the work put into what I outline to follow overlaps with normal work on articles anyway, and in the long run would likely make that work far easier by helping to identify what needs to be done and when.
1032: 1427:
As for making the announcement, should we use AWB to spam all the WikiProject pages? Should we divide up the work between us? Is there a better way? I'll cross post this on the main assessment page.
966:
I can offer to anyone who wishes to do a small scale test in their own project. I don't think I have yet encountered a case in assessment where people have not found the process informative and useful.
538: 285: 943:
A common reaction to this is that it's too time consuming because most are used to easy, but poor, rating processes (e.g. pluck a number from 1 to 10 out of the air or a grade based on best guess).
1039:. It might work for the purposes you're suggesting. I expect there to be a lot of deviation there, though, because many of the assessments seem to have been copies of preexisting assessments. 1217:
Any editing or additional material can be helpful. Considerable editing is needed to reach Featured list status. In particular, issues of breadth, completeness, and balance may need work.

When the scheme is refined, it can be refined not only based on what 'should' distinguish better from worse, but what is seen to in a carefully calibrated and ordered set of examples.
664:
I think it's about time we wrote a simple FAQ to deal with these questions; for every one person who posts on one of these, there are probably ten who are simply baffled and leave.

P.S. I'd be happy to drop "Lists" if it's not needed, and it seems to me the "Editor's experience" column could be dropped, since it logically follows from everything else. - Dan

I announced last Monday/Tuesday that I wanted to do this on Friday, and that we would be implementing the results of the discussions held during late June. on Wednesday

For the most part, "list class" would refer to articles that can never be more than a mere list or indexes (as opposed to a categories), for instance
