Wikipedia talk:WikiProject The Supremes

Latest comment: 1 year ago by Aymatth2 in topic Project-independent quality assessments

Welcome to the discussion page of the The Supremes WikiProject!

So we need to tag all the articles talk pages with {{WikiProject The Supremes|class=???|importances=???}}

Class

An article's quality assessment is generated from the class parameter in the {{WikiProject Banner Shell}}. Articles that have the {{WikiProject The Supremes}} project banner on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.

The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):

FA (for featured articles only; adds articles to Category:FA-Class The Supremes articles)  FA
A (adds articles to Category:A-Class The Supremes articles)  A
GA (for good articles only; adds articles to Category:GA-Class The Supremes articles)  GA
B (adds articles to Category:B-Class The Supremes articles) B
C (adds articles to Category:C-Class The Supremes articles) C
Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class The Supremes articles) Start
Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class The Supremes articles) Stub
FL (for featured lists only; adds articles to Category:FL-Class The Supremes articles)  FL
List (adds articles to Category:List-Class The Supremes articles) List

For non-standard grades and non-mainspace content, the following values may be used for the class parameter:

Category (for categories; adds pages to Category:Category-Class The Supremes articles) Category
Disambig (for disambiguation pages; adds pages to Category:Disambig-Class The Supremes articles) Disambig
Draft (for drafts; adds pages to Category:Draft-Class The Supremes articles) Draft
File (for files and timed text; adds pages to Category:File-Class The Supremes articles) File
Portal (for portal pages; adds pages to Category:Portal-Class The Supremes articles) Portal
Project (for project pages; adds pages to Category:Project-Class The Supremes articles) Project
Template (for templates and modules; adds pages to Category:Template-Class The Supremes articles) Template
NA (for any other pages where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NA-Class The Supremes articles) NA
??? (articles for which a valid class has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unassessed The Supremes articles) ???
Importance

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

{{WikiProject The Supremes|importance=???}}

The following values may be used for the importance parameter to describe the relative importance of the article within the project (see Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Priority of topic for assessment criteria):

Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance The Supremes articles)  Top 
High (adds articles to Category:High-importance The Supremes articles)  High 
Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance The Supremes articles)  Mid 
Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance The Supremes articles)  Low 
NA (adds articles to Category:NA-importance The Supremes articles)  NA 
??? (articles for which a valid importance rating has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unknown-importance The Supremes articles)  ???

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

edit

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:48, 1 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject X is live!

edit

Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject

edit

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.

Portals are being redesigned.

The new design features are being applied to existing portals.

At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.

The discussion about this can be found here.

Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.

Background

edit

On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.

There's an article in the current edition of the Signpost interviewing project members about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.

Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.

So far, 84 editors have joined.

If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.

If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.

Thank you.    — The Transhumanist   07:58, 30 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Banner

edit

Hi, please be sure to assess Supremes-related articles by using the {{WikiProject The Supremes}} banner on their respective talk pages and not by adding quality and importance categories directly to the articles. Thank you. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 00:09, 5 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Project-independent quality assessments

edit

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.
