Assessment and progress of articles
Below is a bot generated table of the assessment process of WikiProject Merseyside supported articles. See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Merseyside/Assessment. The stats are generated automatically every 2-3 days, but they can be updated manually by entering Merseyside (and replacing Foobar) into the Category box
[http://wp1en.kiwix.org/cgi-bin/wp/wp10/run_wp10.html here].
The proportion of all articles with a project banner assessed is:
{{Progress bar
|{{#expr:(100-(({{PAGESINCAT:Unassessed Merseyside articles|R}})/1862)*100)}}
|text = assessed (estimate: some more article talk pages may still need a banner)
}}
