Wikipedia:WikiProject Aerosmith/Assessment
This is the assessment department of WikiProject Aerosmith. This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles of Aerosmith. 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 Aerosmith}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Aerosmith articles by quality, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist.
Frequently asked questions
