Welcome to the assessment department of the Religion WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's Religion related articles. 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 {{WPReligion}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Religion articles by quality and Category:Religion articles by importance, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

[edit] 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 Religion WikiProject is free to add or change the rating of an article.
Why didn't the reviewer leave any comments? 
Unfortunately, due to the volume of articles that need to be assessed, we are unable to leave detailed comments in most cases. If you have particular questions, you might ask the person who assessed the article; they will usually be happy to provide you with their reasoning.
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.

[edit] Quality assessments

An article's quality assessment is generated from the class parameter in the {{WikiProject Religion}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Religion| ... | class=??? | ...}}
Featured article FA
A-Class article A
Good article GA
B
Start
Stub
???
Needed

The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article:


Template
Disambig
Category
NA

For pages that are not articles, the following values can also be used for the class parameter:

Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Religion articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.

After assessing an article's quality, comments on the assessment can be added either to the article's talk page or to the /Comments subpage which will appear as a link next to the assessment. Adding comments will add the article to Category:Religion articles with comments. Comments that are added to the /Comments subpages will be transcluded onto the automatically generated work list pages in the Comments column.

[edit] Importance scale

Label Criteria Reader's experience Editor's experience Example
Top The article is one of the core topics about religion. Generally, this is limited to those articles that are listed on {{Religion topics}} A reader who is not involved in the field of religion will have high familiarity with the subject matter and should be able to relate to the topic easily. Articles in this importance range are written in mostly generic terms, leaving technical terms and descriptions for more specialized pages. Religion
High The article covers a topic that is vital to understanding religion.
Mid The article covers a topic that has a strong but not vital role in the history of religion. Many readers will be familiar with the topic being discussed, but a larger majority of readers may have only cursory knowledge of the overall subject. Articles at this level will cover subjects that are well known but not necessarily vital to understand religion, such as specific aspects of more-widely known faiths. Due to the topics covered at this level, Mid-importance articles will generally have more technical terms used in the article text. Most people involved in specific religions will be rated in this level. Southern Pacific 4449
Low The article is not required knowledge for a broad understanding of religion. Few readers outside the religion field or that are not adherents to the specific faith may be familiar with the subject matter. It is likely that the reader does not know anything at all about the subject before reading the article. Articles at this range of importance will often delve into the minutiae of religion, using technical terms (and defining them) as needed. Topics included at this level include most practices and infrastructure of religions. Jordanhill railway station

Given the number and variety of articles with which this project shall be dealing, I believe that we should devote a good deal of attention in the short run to determining which of the articles we consider to be of greatest importance to the project. We now have a page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Religion/Assessment/Top-importance articles where we can discuss which articles should receive top-importance ranking. Any and all input is more than welcome.

[edit] 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.

  1. Taoic religion - Recently passed GA review. Started with this, expanded it to this, which includes editor notes for expansion, earning the GA pass. Looking for outside input to see if others think this would appropriately be rated A-Class and what project participants think needs to be done to pass a WP:FAC review.Vassyana 10:18, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
  2. Fellowship of Friends - Can you tell me how to rate this article? Thanks. Mario Fantoni 06:22, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
  3. Fellowship of Friends - this article is probably a B class, low importance religion.--Moon Rising 17:55, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
  4. Ismailism - I recently rewrote most of the article and have tried to make it as high quality as I could. --Enzuru 21:20, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
  5. Sant Nirankari Mission - I have added new content and done as much referencing as I could. I would need some sort of rating and comments to make it even better. Would appreciate your feedback. Thanks!
  6. Aura-Soma - have been working on this one, and will be trying to get it to GA class once I can get hold of the books referenced to add citations. Think it might be B class now, a second would be very welcome, as would thoughts on anything the article needs to reach GA. - Zeibura (Talk) 13:34, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
  7. Ayyavazhi - An extremely well-referenced and lengthy article which is written in Summary style with main article for each sections. It seems right to fit as a Good article. Any one pls tale a look into it.
  8. Sai Baba of Shirdi - it's just received GA status and I think it could be brought to A class. Kkrystian 17:16, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
  9. Tamara Siuda -- Significant changes have been made in the past month or so, including layout, content, and the addition of a variety of references. Was not rated under the Religion project before, I believe now to be "GA". IanCheesman (talk) 20:31, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
  10. Kemetic Orthodoxy -- Complete re-write took place over the past few months, including layout, content, and references. Article is now more than four times the original size, and layout is largely based on that of other religion pages. Was not rated under the Religion project before, I believe now to be "GA". IanCheesman (talk) 20:31, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
  11. Share International -- New information added about essential philosophy, incorrect information deleted, new pictures added Camillaworld 15:22,8 August 2008 (UTC)
  12. Lynn de Silva -- New biography article. It has been refined and reviewed quite a bit over the past few months, so I would appreciate your rating and feedback. Thanks! Ldesilva (talk) 03:00, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
  13. History of religions -- I would think this to be a high importance article, but its currently lacking in many ways. Reading through the talk page, it seems like it has been fomred by a bad merge of two other articles. KalevTait (talk) 18:04, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
