To assess the quality of the article, add either stub, start, C, B, GA, A, or FA after class=.

:Example:

::{{WikiProject Greater Manchester|class=GA|importance=}}

To assess the importance of the article, add low, mid, high, or top after importance=.

:Example:

::{{WikiProject Greater Manchester|class=GA|importance=high}}

;The following is a list of parameters for different quality ratings and importance ratings:
