Quality assessments

A page's quality assessment is generated from the quality parameter in the {{WikiProject Languages}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Languages|quality=???}}

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

FB (for featured book pages only; adds page to Category:FB-quality language pages)		FB
A (adds pages to Category:A-quality language pages)		A
B (adds pages to Category:B-quality language pages)		B
C (adds pages to Category:C-quality language pages)		C
Start (adds pages to Category:Start-quality language pages)		Start
Stub (adds pages to Category:Stub-quality language pages)		Stub

For pages that are not part of books, the following values can also be used for the quality parameter:

Category (for categories; adds pages to Category:Category-quality language pages)		Category
Project (for project pages; adds pages to Category:Project-quality language pages)		Project
Template (for templates; adds pages to Category:Template-quality language pages)		Template
Shelf (for shelf pages; adds pages to Category:Shelf-quality language pages)		Shelf
NB (for any other pages where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NB-quality language pages)		NB
??? (pages for which a valid quality has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unassessed-quality language pages)		???

The quality parameter should be assigned according to the quality scale below.

Quality scale

Class	Criteria	Reader's experience	Editing suggestions
FB	The page is at the level one would expect in a featured book. More detailed criteria The page meets the featured book criteria: Consistently conforms to WB:WIW, WB:NPOV, and WB:NP. Has an appropriate and consistent definition (target audience, scope, and style). All current organizational systems are properly and appropriately used. Accurate, comprehensive, and concise enough to effectively teach and learn from in its current state. Has a table of contents and sufficient page navigational aids. Free of major issues, like reorganization, orphaned or missing material, copyright violations, deletion, unmaintained, and unresolved disputes.	Professional, outstanding, and thorough; a definitive source for information on the subject.	No further content additions should be necessary unless new information becomes available; further improvements to the prose quality are often possible.

Category	Any category falls under this classification.	Categories are mainly used to group together books within a particular subject area.	Large subject categories may need to be split into one or more subcategories. Be wary of books that have been misfiled.
Shelf	Any shelf in the stacks falls under this classification.	Shelves are intended to serve as "main pages" for specific topics.	Editor involvement is essential to ensure that shelves are kept up to date.
Project	All WikiProject-related pages fall under this classification.	Project pages are intended to aid editors in book development, and are probably not useful to readers.	Develop these pages into collaborative resources useful for improving books within the project.
Template	Any template falls under this classification. The most common type of template includes navigation templates.	Different types of template serve different purposes. Navigation templates assist the user in navigating between pages in a book.	Navigation templates are typically placed at the bottom and possibly the top of a page.
NB	Any non-book page that fits no other classification.	The page contains no book content, and is probably not useful to any casual reader.	Look out for mis-classified pages.

Priority assessments

A page's priority assessment is generated from the priority parameter in the {{WikiProject Languages}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Languages|priority=???}}

The following values may be used for the priority parameter to describe the relative priority of the page within the project:

Top (adds pages to Category:Top-priority language pages)		Top
High (adds pages to Category:High-priority language pages)		High
Mid (adds pages to Category:Mid-priority language pages)		Mid
Low (adds pages to Category:Low-priority language pages)		Low
NB (adds pages to Category:NB-priority language pages)		NB
??? (pages for which a valid priority rating has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unknown-priority language pages		???

The priority parameter should be assigned according to the priority scale below.
