Wikipedia:WikiProject Artificial Intelligence utilizes article assessment. By assessing quality, we see which articles need the most work. By assessing importance, we know which topics are most vital to Artificial Intelligence.

Assessing an article is easy! Before you begin you may want to look at the Editorial Team's assessment scale with examples to get a feel for what the different ratings mean.

Method and syntax[edit]

1. Go to Unassessed Artificial Intelligence articles and Unknown-importance Artificial Intelligence articles. These categories contain the articles that need to be assessed.
2. Click on an article link - this should take you to the talk page.
3. Click on the "Article" tab - look at the article and make an assessment. (See also: Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment if you need help)
4. Click on the "Discussion" tab - this should return you to the talk page.
5. Click the "Edit this Page" tab. You will see {{WikiProject Artificial Intelligence|class=|importance=}} at the top of the page.
6. Fill in the tag's attributes.
   1. Fill in |class= using one of these values: Stub, Start, List, C, B, GA, A, FA; examples and criteria for these classes are listed below.
   2. Fill in |importance= using one of these values: Top, High, Mid, Low, NA; examples of these ratings for WikiProject Artificial Intelligence are below.
7. You're done! (unless you want to go back and do another assessment) -- we hope you will!

Below is a list of the importance criteria developed by the WikiProject Artificial Intelligence community. It is very much a work in progress, and as such is open to debate, interpretation, and modification. Please be bold when assessing! If you come across an article that you think is assessed incorrectly, change it to what you think it should be. If the criteria indicate one level but you think it's another, reassess it and discuss on the assessment talk page to let the community weigh in. As we decide more edge cases, the criteria will become focused and reflect consensus.

Note that priority is a relative term. If priority or importance values are applied within WikiProject Artificial Intelligence, these only reflect the perceived priority to this project. An article judged to be "Top-Class" for WP:Artificial Intelligence may be only "Mid-Class" in another project.
