Welcome to the Assessment Department of the Computer Science WikiProject. The goal of this project is to assess articles related to Computer science and to provide editors with guidance on how to improve existing articles.

If you would like to participate, feel free to sign up on the Computer Science WikiProject participants list.

Instructions

An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the {{WikiProject Computer science}} project banner ({{WPCompSci}} for short) on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Computer science
 |class=
 |importance=
}}

Process

  1. Tag an article related to computer science (or look at a tagged article)
  2. Read the article and analyze it
  3. Place your assessment in the {{WPCompSci}} or {{WikiProject Computer science}} banner on the articles talk page (According to the scales below)

Quality scale

Computer Science articles are graded for quality according to the Wikipedia 1.0 Assessment Scale.

FA
A
GA
B
Start
Stub
???

The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article:

If left blank, the article will default as Category:Unassessed-Class Computer science articles.

Note: You should not assign any article GA or FA grades arbitrarily. These grades must pass through official Wikipedia channels and undergo a Peer Review process.

Importance scale

Computer Science articles are rated on this importance scale. Importance must be regarded as a relative term. If importance values are applied within this project, these only reflect the perceived importance to this project and to the work groups the topic falls under. An article judged to be "Top-Class" in one context may be only "Mid-Class" in another project. The criteria used for rating article priority 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).

The following values may be used for importance assessments:
