Welcome to the WikiProject Brands assessment page.
The ratings are performed within the {{WikiProject Brands}} project banner, which places articles in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Brands articles by quality. This also serves as an automatically-generated worklist for the project: see: (Index · Statistics · Log).
Instructions[edit]
An article's assessment is generated from the class and importance parameters in the {{WikiProject Brands}} project banner on its talk page:
{{WikiProject Brands
|class=
|importance=
|listas=
}}
The following values may be used for the class parameter:
- FA (adds articles to Category:FA-Class Brands articles)
- A (adds articles to Category:A-Class Brands articles)
- GA (adds articles to Category:GA-Class Brands articles)
- B (adds articles to Category:B-Class Brands articles)
- C (adds articles to Category:C-Class Brands articles)
- Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class Brands articles)
- Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class Brands articles)
- FL (for Featured lists only. Adds articles to Category:FL-Class Brands articles)
- List (adds articles to Category:List-Class Brands articles)
- NA (for pages, such as templates or disambiguation pages, where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NA-Class Brands articles)
Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Brands articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.
Quality scale[edit]
This WikiProject uses the Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment standard quality scale.
Importance scale[edit]
Label | Criteria | Examples |
---|---|---|
Top | Core, highly notable topics about brands and brand-related topics. This may also include product brand topics that have or had an established global presence with wide distribution. | Brand, Coca-Cola |
High | Topics that are very notable within the field of brands, and well-known outside of it, and can be reasonably expected to be included in any print encyclopedia. This may also include product brand topics that have or had widespread distribution on multiple continents. | Brand equity, Oreo |
Mid | Topics that are reasonably notable without necessarily being famous or very notable outside of the field. This may also include product brand topics that have or had distribution on a national level or distribution in multiple countries. | Brand management, Cadbury Eclairs |
Low | Topics of mostly specialized interest or those that are only included for complete coverage or as examples of a higher-level topic; peripheral or trivial brand-related topics. Also encompasses topics about generally lesser-known product brand topics, and may include those that have or had local, regional or statewide distribution. | Green brands, Bob's-Cola |
NA | Subject importance is not applicable. Generally applies to non-article pages such as redirects, categories, templates, etc. | Category:Brands |
??? | Subject importance has not yet been assessed. |
- ^ For example, this image of the Battle of Normandy is grainy, but very few pictures of that event exist. However, where quite a number of pictures exist, for instance, the moon landing, FPC attempts to select the best of the ones produced.
- ^ An image has more encyclopedic value (often abbreviated to "EV" or "enc" in discussions) if it contributes strongly to a single article, rather than contributing weakly to many. Adding an image to numerous articles to gain EV is counterproductive and may antagonize both FPC reviewers and article editors.
- ^ While effects such as black and white, sepia, oversaturation, and abnormal angles may be visually pleasing, they often detract from the accurate depiction of the subject.
