{{Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Sumo articles by quality statistics}}

W
elcome to the assessment page of WikiProject: Sumo. On this page you will find all the information you need if you have any questions about assessing sumo articles on Wikipedia. The resulting article ratings are used within the project to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work, and are also expected to play a role in the WP:1.0 program.

The assessment is done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the {{tl|WikiProject Sumo}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of :Category:Sumo articles by quality, which serve as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

Articles classified by importance and quality can be found by clicking on the number statistics in the table opposite.

What is assessment? How can I participate?

: See also the general assessment FAQ

; 1. What is the purpose of the article ratings? : The rating system allows the project to monitor the quality of articles in our subject areas, and to prioritize work on these articles. It is also utilized by the Wikipedia 1.0 program to prepare for static releases of Wikipedia content. These ratings are primarily intended for the internal use of the project, and do not necessarily imply any official standing within Wikipedia as a whole.

; 2. How do I add an article to WikiProject Sumo? : Just add {{tl|WikiProject Sumo}} to the top of the talk page; there's no need to do anything else.

; 3. Someone put a {{tl|WikiProject Sumo}} template on an article, but it doesn't seem to be within the project's scope. What should I do? : If you notice one, feel free to remove the tag, and optionally leave a note on the project talk page (or directly with the person who tagged the article). We still try to keep articles by wrestlers who have made a brief passage through sumo, even if they are known for another career.

; 4. Who can assess articles? : Any member of the WikiProject Sumo is free to add—or change—the rating of an article. Editors who are not participants in this project are also welcome to assess articles, but should defer to consensus within the project in case of procedural disputes.

; 5. How do I rate an article? : Check the quality scale and select the level that best matches the state of the article (source, level of information, coverage ...); then, follow the instructions below to add the rating to the project banner on the article's talk page. Please note that some of the available levels have an associated formal review process; this is documented in the assessment scale.

; 7. What if I don't agree with a rating? : You can ask any member of the project to rate the article again or rate it again yourself. Please note that some of the available levels have an associated formal review process; this is documented in the assessment scale.

; 8. Aren't the ratings subjective? : Yes, they are somewhat subjective, 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!

Importance assessment

An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{tl|WikiProject Sumo}} project banner on its talk page:

; {{WikiProject Sumo| ... | importance=??? | ...}}

border="0" align="right"
width=40px {{Top-Importance}}
{{High-Importance}}
{{Mid-Importance}}
{{Low-Importance}}
style="color:black; text-align:center; background:#FAEBD7;" | ???

The following values may be used for importance assessments:

! Examples

{{Top-importance}}

| Core topics about Sumo. Generally, these topics are sub-articles of the main Sumo article, vital for the understanding of Sumo or extremely notable to people outside of Sumo. This category should stay limited to approximately 10 articles.

| Sumo

{{High-importance}}

| Topics that are very notable within Sumo, and not unheard of outside of it, and can be reasonably expected to be included in any print encyclopedia

| Articles about Yokozuna and sumo-related professions (yobidashi, rikishi...)

{{Mid-importance}}

| Topics that are reasonably notable within Sumo itself without necessarily being famous or very notable internationally

| Wrestler lists (List of ōzeki), articles on notorious top-division wrestlers, arenas

{{Low-importance}}

| Topics of mostly local interest or those that are only included for complete coverage or as examples of a higher-level topic; peripheral or trivial topics

| Articles on Edo and Meiji-era wrestlers, articles on wrestlers who have never progressed beyond the second-highest division, articles on wrestlers in the smallest divisions who are notable for anecdotal facts
