200+ Biography article assessments

Per a request a few hours ago, I banged out 200+ Biography assessments. -- Jreferee 01:57, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Criteria and articles with comments

Hi. I bumped into this page in my watchlist and wanted to suggest three things. One, the comments reviewers give editors are among the best things I have received from WikiProject Biography. Would it be possible to give people some idea of how to improve their articles? For Stub, and perhaps Start, a copy/paste of the steps to B class might work (I saw someone do this today and it worked well). For B and above more personalized comments might help. Second, could the criteria on which grading is done be part of "Instructions on how to assess a Biography article"? For example I am not sure that length is the sole difference between Stub and a Start (the quality scale says Stub is "either a very short article or a rough collection of information..."). Third, I would encourage use of the quality scale shared by all the projects (it does not forbid A class before GA, a rule that seems to have been introduced in this drive). Hope this helps. -Susanlesch 00:23, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Hello, perhaps criteria need to be developed not only this drive, but I added a few sentences to the instructions and will copy them to the project talk page for wider discussion. -Susanlesch 16:19, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Awards

I will draw up and propose an WikiBarnstar Award(s) for the efforts listed herein. Should it be one for each accomplishment? I.e. a Barnstar for each level with the a total underneath for the new level they have reached? --Ozgod 01:46, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
