Welcome to the assessment department of the Food and drink WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's Food and drink related articles. While much of the work is done in conjunction with the WP:1.0 program, the article ratings are also used within the project itself to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.
The ratings are done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the {{WikiProject Food and drink}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Food and drink articles by quality and Category:Food and drink articles by importance, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.

Frequently asked questions
- How can I get my article rated?
- Please list it in the section for assessment requests below.
- Who can assess articles?
- Any member of the Food and drink WikiProject is free to add or change the rating of an article.
- Why didn't the reviewer leave any comments?
- Unfortunately, due to the volume of articles that need to be assessed, we are unable to leave detailed comments in most cases. If you have particular questions, you might ask the person who assessed the article; they will usually be happy to provide you with their reasoning.
- What if I don't agree with a rating?
- You can list it in the section for assessment requests below, and someone will take a look at it. Alternately, you can ask any member of the project to rate the article again.
- Aren't the ratings subjective?
- Yes, they are, but it's the best system we've been able to devise; if you have a better idea, please don't hesitate to let us know!
If you have any other questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department.
Instructions
[] Quality assessments
An article's quality assessment is generated from the class parameter in the {{WikiProject Food and drink}} project banner on its talk page:
- {{WikiProject Food and drink| ... | class=??? | ...}}
The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article:
For pages that are not articles, the following values can also be used for the class parameter:
Articles for which a valid class is not provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Food and drink articles. The class should be assigned according to the quality scale below.
After assessing an article's quality, comments on the assessment can be added either to the article's talk page or to the /Comments subpage which will appear as a link next to the assessment. Adding comments will add the article to Category:Food and drink articles with comments. Comments that are added to the /Comments subpages will be transcluded onto the automatically generated work list pages in the Comments column.

Example |
FA
{{FA-Class}} |
The article has attained Featured article status.
| More detailed criteria |
| The article must meet the featured article criteria:
A featured article exemplifies our very best work and features professional standards of writing and presentation. In addition to meeting the requirements for all Wikipedia articles, it has the following attributes.
- It is—
- (a) well-written: its prose is engaging, even brilliant, and of a professional standard;
- (b) comprehensive: it neglects no major facts or details and places the subject in context;
- (c) factually accurate: claims are verifiable against reliable sources, accurately represent the relevant body of published knowledge, and are supported with specific evidence and external citations; this requires a "References" section in which sources are listed, complemented by inline citations where appropriate;
- (d) neutral: it presents views fairly and without bias; and
- (e) stable: it is not subject to ongoing edit wars and its content does not change significantly from day to day, except in response to the featured article process.
- It follows the style guidelines, including the provision of:
- (a) a lead—a concise lead section that summarizes the topic and prepares the reader for the detail in the subsequent sections;
- (b) appropriate structure—a system of hierarchical headings and a substantial but not overwhelming table of contents (see section help); and
- (c) consistent citations—where required by Criterion 1c, consistently formatted inline citations using either footnotes[1] or Harvard referencing (Smith 2007, p. 1) (see citing sources for suggestions on formatting references; for articles with footnotes, the meta:cite format is recommended).
- Images. It has images and other media where appropriate, with succinct captions and acceptable copyright status. Non-free images or media must satisfy the criteria for inclusion of non-free content and be labeled accordingly.
- Length. It stays focused on the main topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
|
|
Professional, outstanding, and thorough; a definitive source for encyclopedic information. |
No further content additions should be necessary unless new information becomes available; further improvements to the prose quality are often possible. |
Tourette Syndrome
(as of June 2008) |
FL
{{FL-Class}} |
The article has attained Featured list status.
| More detailed criteria |
The article must meet the featured list criteria:
- Prose. It features professional standards of writing.
- Lead. It has an engaging lead section that introduces the subject, and defines the scope and inclusion criteria of the list.
- Comprehensiveness. It comprehensively covers the defined scope, providing a complete set of items where practical, or otherwise at least all of the major items; where appropriate, it has annotations that provide useful and appropriate information about entries.
- Structure. It is easy to navigate, and includes—where helpful—section headings and table sort facilities.
- Style. It complies with the Manual of Style and its supplementary pages.
- Visual appeal. It makes suitable use of text layout, formatting, tables, and colour; it has images if they are appropriate to the subject, with succinct captions or "alt" text; and it has a minimal proportion of red links.
- Stability. It is not the subject of ongoing edit wars and its content does not change significantly from day to day, except in response to the featured list process.

FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives
(as of January 2008) |
A
{{A-Class}} |
The article is well organized and essentially complete, having been reviewed by impartial reviewers from a WikiProject or elsewhere.
| More detailed criteria |
| Provides a well-written, clear and complete description of the topic, as described in Wikipedia:How to write a great article. It should be of a length suitable for the subject, appropriately structured, and be well referenced by a broad array of reliable sources. It should be well illustrated, with no copyright problems. Only minor style issues and other details need to be addressed before submission as a featured article candidate. See the A-Class assessment departments of some of the larger WikiProjects (e.g. WikiProject Military history, WikiProject Films). |
|
Very useful to readers. A fairly complete treatment of the subject. A non-expert in the subject matter would typically find nothing wanting. |
Expert knowledge may be needed to tweak the article, and style issues may need addressing. Peer-review may help. |
Durian
(as of March 2007) |
GA
{{GA-Class}} |
The article has attained Good article status.
| More detailed criteria |
The article must meet the good article criteria:
- Well-written:
- (a) the prose is clear and the spelling and grammar are correct; and
- (b) it complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, jargon, words to avoid, fiction, and list incorporation.
- Factually accurate and verifiable:
- (a) it provides references to all sources of information, and at minimum contains a section dedicated to the attribution of those sources in accordance with the guide to layout;
- (b) at minimum, it provides in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons; and
- (c) it contains no original research.
- Broad in its coverage:
- (a) it addresses the main aspects of the topic; and
- (b) it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
- Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without bias.
- Stable: it does not change significantly from day-to-day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
- Illustrated, if possible, by images:
- (a) images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content; and
- (b) images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
|
|
Useful to nearly all readers, with no obvious problems; approaching (although not equalling) the quality of a professional encyclopedia. |
Some editing by subject and style experts is helpful; comparison with an existing featured article on a similar topic may highlight areas where content is weak or missing. |
International Space Station
(as of February 2007) |
B
{{B-Class}} |
The article is mostly complete and without major issues, but requires some further work to reach Good Article standards. B-Class articles should meet the six B-Class criteria.
| More detailed criteria |
- The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations where necessary. It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. The use of citation templates such as {{cite web}} is not required, but the use of <ref></ref> tags is encouraged.
- The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.
- The article has a defined structure. Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.
- The article is reasonably well-written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it certainly need not be "brilliant". The Manual of Style need not be followed rigorously.
- The article contains supporting materials where appropriate. Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams and an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.
- The article presents its content in an appropriately accessible way. It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.
|
|
No reader should be left wanting, although the content may not be complete enough to satisfy a serious student or researcher. |
A few aspects of content and style need to be addressed, and expert knowledge is increasingly needed. The inclusion of supporting materials should also be considered if practical, and the article checked for general compliance with the manual of style and related style guidelines. |
Jammu and Kashmir
(as of October 2007) |
C
{{C-Class}} |
The article is substantial, but is still missing important content or contains a lot of irrelevant material. The article should have some references to reliable sources, but may still have significant issues or require substantial cleanup.
| More detailed criteria |
| The article is better developed in style, structure and quality than Start-Class, but fails one or more of the criteria for B-Class. It may have some gaps or missing elements; need editing for clarity, balance or flow; or contain policy violations such as bias or original research. Articles on fictional topics are likely to be marked as C-Class if they are written from an in-universe perspective. |
|
Useful to a casual reader, but would not provide a complete picture for even a moderately detailed study. |
Considerable editing is needed to close gaps in content and address cleanup issues. |
Exeter Cathedral
(as of June 2008) |
Start
{{Start-Class}} |
An article that is developing, but which is quite incomplete and, most notably, lacks adequate reliable sources.
| More detailed criteria |
| The article has a usable amount of good content, but it is weak in many areas, usually in referencing. Quality of the prose may be distinctly unencyclopedic, and MoS compliance non-existent; but the article should satisfy fundamental content policies such as notability and BLP, and provide enough sources to establish verifiability. No Start-Class article should be in any danger of being speedily deleted. |
|
Provides some meaningful content, but the majority of readers will need more. |
Provision of references to reliable sources should be prioritised; the article will also need substantial improvements in content and organisation. |
Real analysis
(as of November 2006) |
Stub
{{Stub-Class}} |
A very basic description of the topic.
| More detailed criteria |
| The article is either a very short article or a rough collection of information that will need much work to become a meaningful article. It is usually very short, but can be of any length if the material is irrelevant or incomprehensible. |
|
Provides very little meaningful content; may be little more than a dictionary definition |
Any editing or additional material can be helpful. The provision of meaningful content should be a priority. |

Importance assessment
An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject Food and drink}} project banner on its talk page:
- {{WikiProject Food and drink| ... | importance=??? | ...}}
The following values may be used for importance assessments:
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 Comics.
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}} |
Core topics about Food and drink. Generally, these topics are sub-articles of the main Food and drink article, vital for the understanding of Food and drink. This category should stay limited to approximately 100 members. Biographies should be limited to the top one or two people in a particular field or persons of the greatest historical importance |
| High |
{{High-Class}} |
Topics that are very notable within the field of Food and drink, and not unheard of outside of it, and can be reasonably expected to be included in any print encyclopedia |
| Mid |
{{Mid-Class}} |
Topics that are reasonably notable within the field of food and drink aficionados without necessarily being famous or very notable by the greater community. |
| Low |
{{Low-Class}} |
Topics of mostly local interest or those that are only included for complete coverage or as examples of a higher-level topic; peripheral or trivial topics |
| No |
{{No-Class}} |
Subject is a disambiguation or redirect page, residing in article space but redundant in a print encyclopedia. |
| NA |
{{NA-Class}} |
Used for categories, templates, portal and project pages, separate from article space. |
Requesting an assessment
If you have made significant changes to an article and would like an outside opinion on a new rating for it, please feel free to list it below.
- Slivovitz — There have been significant changes to the article since it was first assessed in September 2007. — Chris Capoccia T/C 21:29, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
it would be greatly apreciated if somebody could ascess the canada dry article. Thanks,Canadakid2 (talk) 00:24, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
Would someone please look at the article I created on American Cookery and rate it (and offer any advise on making it better). It needs some organization. But I can't tell if it should be a Stub or Start class. The one on Culinary Historians of New York is clearly a stub. But I don't have a clue about setting the importance parameter in the banners. Thanks much. Becksguy 13:45, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Gluten has been expanded, supplied with references and rewritten for the sake of clarity. Please assign a rating to it. Comments will be welcomed. Wugo 20:59, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

- The_Palm_(restaurant) - I've done quite a bit of work re-structuring article and removing NPOV and ad-like language. It still needs substantial in-line citations. I think it is start-class now but would like some collective input.Bradfordschultze (talk) 07:50, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
