Competition
Drive Organizer/s:
Welcome to Tag & Assess 2012 Pakistan!There are more than 15K unassessed articles about Pakistan. Pakistan has a good number of articles now and needs clean up. This will be beneficial for articles as well as editors as they will be able to interact with editors in their country and will learn new things and can obtain a lot of knowledge about their country. The drive will run from 7 April 2012 to 7 September 2012. The opening/closing time for both days is midnight/0001 hours of that day PST.
The purpose of holding this contest is three-fold:
- to ensure that all the articles are within our scope;
- to ensure that they are correctly tagged for task forces;
- and to ensure that they are correctly assessed for class and importance.
Rewards
Barnstars will be given after the organizer/s reviews your work at the end of the day. Your work will always be valued. Rewards will be given one after another, e.g., after reaching 200 mark, tireless award then after reaching 400, working Wikipedian's award and it goes on...
At the end of the contest, the editors with most number of assessments (top 3) will be given Golden wiki barnstar, then Silver and then bronze respectively.
All the best for assessment!

Example code is given below:
{{WP Pakistan|class=B|importance=High|attention=yes}}
Attention is guaranteed if the importance
variable is set to High
or Top
as well.
Details
An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the {{WP Pakistan}} project banner on its talk page (see the project banner instructions for more details on the exact syntax):
- {{WP Pakistan| ... | class=??? | importance=??? | ...}}
The following values may be used for the class parameter:
- FA (adds articles to Category:FA-Class Pakistan articles)
- A (adds articles to Category:A-Class Pakistan articles)
- GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class Pakistan articles)
- B (adds articles to Category:B-Class Pakistan articles)
- C (adds articles to Category:C-Class Pakistan articles)
- Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class Pakistan articles)
- Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class Pakistan articles)
- NA (for pages, such as templates or disambiguation pages, where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:Non-article Pakistan pages)
Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Pakistan articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.
The following values may be used for the importance parameter:
- Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance Pakistan articles)
- High (adds articles to Category:High-importance Pakistan articles)
- Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Pakistan articles)
- Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance Pakistan articles)
The parameter is not used if an article's class is set to NA, and may be omitted in those cases. The importance should be assigned according to the importance scale below.
Quality scale
Importance scale
The criteria used for rating article importance are not meant to be an absolute or canonical view of how significant the topic is. Rather, they attempt to gauge the probability of the average reader of Wikipedia needing to look up the topic (and thus the immediate need to have a suitably well-written article on it). Thus, subjects with greater popular notability may be rated higher than topics which are arguably more "important" but which are of interest primarily to students of Pakistan.
Note that general notability need not be from the perspective of editor demographics; generally notable topics should be rated similarly regardless of the country or region in which they hold said notability. Thus, topics which may seem obscure to a Western audience—but which are of high notability in other places—should still be highly rated.
Status | Template | Meaning of Status |
---|---|---|
Top | {{Top-Class}} | This article is of the utmost importance to this project, as it forms the basis of all information. |
High | {{High-Class}} | This article is fairly important to this project, as it covers a general area of knowledge. |
Mid | {{Mid-Class}} | This article is relatively important to this project, as it fills in some more specific knowledge of certain areas. |
Low | {{Low-Class}} | This article is of little importance to this project, but it covers a highly specific area of knowledge or an obscure piece of trivia. |
None | None | This article is of unknown importance to this project. It remains to be analyzed. |
