Wikipedia:WikiProject Organized Labour/Assessment#Instructions

; 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 Organized Labour 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.

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.

• Graduate Employees' Organization 3550 - hasn't been assessed for this project
• Confectionery Workers' Union of Australia - significant edits made, potentially due for a re-grade

• Andrew Furuseth - Thanks! Haus42 01:12, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
• Starbucks Workers Union rated.--Bookandcoffee 17:52, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

• Justice for Janitors request High rating for significance of movement for US labor in particular

• UK miners' strike (1984–1985) currently only "Mid" importance, I think it should be High. Fundamental to an understanding of the decline of the UK labour movement and from an international POV it was key to the ascendance of the Thatcherism / neo-liberalism that became economic orthodoxy over the subsequent 20 years.
