Wikipedia:WikiProject Mariah Carey/Assessment
Welcome to the assessment department of the Mariah Carey WikiProject! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's Mariah Carey-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 Mariah Carey}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Mariah Carey articles by quality and Category:Mariah Carey articles by importance.
If you want a Mariah Carey article to be reassessed. please list it in the section for assessment requests below. If
Quality assessments
An article's quality assessment is generated from the class parameter in the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Articles that have the {{WikiProject Mariah Carey}} project banner on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.
The following values may be used for the class parameter to describe the quality of the article (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):
| FA (for featured articles only; adds articles to Category:FA-Class Mariah Carey articles) |  FA |
|
| A (adds articles to Category:A-Class Mariah Carey articles) |  A |
|
| GA (for good articles only; adds articles to Category:GA-Class Mariah Carey articles) |  GA |
|
| B (adds articles to Category:B-Class Mariah Carey articles) | B | |
| C (adds articles to Category:C-Class Mariah Carey articles) | C | |
| Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class Mariah Carey articles) | Start | |

| FL (for featured lists only; adds articles to Category:FL-Class Mariah Carey articles) | FL |
|
| List (adds articles to Category:List-Class Mariah Carey articles) | List |
For non-standard grades and non-mainspace content, the following values may be used for the class parameter:
| NA (for any other pages where assessment is unnecessary; adds pages to Category:NA-Class Mariah Carey pages) | NA | |
| ??? (articles for which a valid class has not yet been provided are listed in Category:Unassessed Mariah Carey articles) | ??? |
Quality scale
Importance scale
An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject Mariah Carey}} project banner on its talk page:

| Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance Mariah Carey articles) | Top | |
| High (adds articles to Category:High-importance Mariah Carey articles) | High | |
| Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Mariah Carey articles) | Mid | |
| Low (adds articles to Category:Low-importance Mariah Carey articles) | Low | |

2023 content checkup
An issue with many of the older Carey articles is that aside from the two books by Chris Nickson and Marc Shapiro, they rely heavily on sources available freely online at the time they were written, i.e. early 2010s. Aside from content written since then, there is so much more content now available to editors via The Wikipedia Library, and so many articles don't currently incorporate the true range of literature. Also, many articles attribute the books to stuff that is not written in them. This is what the 2023 content checkup is for—to see what needs to be improved and what should be focused on.
