:Wikipedia:WikiProject Objectivism/Assessment

This is the assessment department of WikiProject Objectivism. This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles of Objectivism. 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 {{tl|WikiProject Objectivism}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of :Category:Objectivism articles by quality, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

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 WikiProject Objectivism is free to add—or change—the rating of an article.

; 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.

  1. Anthem_(novella) It's currently listed as C, but I think due to the recent (major) changes it may rank as higher. Brandonk2009 (talk) 16:48, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
