The assessment of articles on Wikipedia is essential to help editors improve and maintain quality standards. Within the scope of a WikiProject, members with shared interests can identify and assess articles, in order to appraise editor contributions, using an established quality grading scheme. In addition to standard ratings, articles can also be assessed, independent of WikiProjects, as Good articles and Featured articles, allowing editors to produce work at a professional encyclopedic level. What follows are the assessment standards offered by WikiProject Westerns.
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 the Westerns WikiProject is free to add or change the rating of an article, up to and including B-Class without need for a formal review process. See instructions below.
; 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!
Instructions
Project members may grade articles up to and including B-Class without need for a formal review process. Editors should enter the class they feel the article meets using the {{tlx|Westerns}} project banner. Editors may also raise or lower an article's class, accordingly, if the article appears over-rated or has been developed to a higher quality grade.
- Template and Category pages that are related to the project should be tagged with the {{tlx|Westerns}} project banner and given the appropriate class. No further action is required.
- The project does not identify Disambiguation, Book, or FM (featured media) pages, at present.
- Articles that have been reviewed as FA/FL or GA class should also be identified as such within the project banner.
- Editors may tag and assess articles which they have created up to B-Class, although a second opinion should normally be made at B-Class requests to avoid bias.
= Quality assessments =
WikiProject Westerns uses the same criteria for grading articles as set out by the Version 1.0 Editorial Team. If you are not sure what class an article falls under, leave a note on the WikiProject's talkpage, and someone will help you out.
{{Assessment Class Summary|banner=WikiProject Westerns|topic=Westerns}}
For a non-article, such as a Category, File, Template, or Project page, placing the {{tl|WikiProject Westerns}} banner on the talk page, without a class parameter, will automatically put the page in the appropriate class category.

=Importance scale=
Don't worry too much about assessing for Importance. It's helpful to have the most vital westerns genre articles tagged as Top importance so they can be easily identified as the highest priority, but less influential television articles don't really need to be tagged for importance.
Note: The "importance" of an article is to be assessed for its importance within this WikiProject.
