Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Sounds good to me. Mercy11 (talk) 18:19, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

How to subcategorize Puerto Rico articles

I have been working on standardizing the subcategories under which Puerto Rico-related articles appear. There was a mix of ways under which Puerto Rico articles were being subcategorized, yet the natural thing to do seemed to be to have a one common systematic way of subcategorizing them. For example, in categories about museums, the subcategory “Category:Museums in Puerto Rico” could had been subcategorized under (1) Category:Museums in insular areas of the United States, (2) Category:Museums in the United States by location, or (3) Category:Museums in the United States by dependent territory, (and perhaps a few others). I chose the first format (“XYZ in insular areas of the United States”). It seemed natural: most subcategories of Puerto Rico articles already appeared to be using that format. What do you all think?

Since Puerto Rico is an unincorporated territory of the United States, I agree with the use of the insular area category since it is a fairly common term in the United States to refer to its dependent territories. Yarfpr (talk) 01:30, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

It was time someone did this. Thanks Mercy11. "Category:... in insular areas of the United States" is a good bucket and it fills up with other US insular areas, as well. i.e. USVI, and the other less populated ones - the ones no one seems to speak of hardly. Let me know if you need help with this project and I could try to make some time but I've just been so busy with life. Thanks again. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 15:04, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

@Mercy11: The "Foo by / of Insular Areas ..." is a good way to categorize but I saw it's being discussed over here. I added my .02 with a WP:RS showing that the US Dept of Interior defines An Insular Area of the United States as "A jurisdiction that is neither a part of one of the several States nor a Federal district. This is the current generic term to refer to any commonwealth, freely associated state, possession or territory or Territory and from July 18, 1947, until October 1, 1994, the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. Unmodified, it may refer not only to a jurisdiction which is under United States sovereignty but also to one which is not, i.e., a freely associated state or, 1947-94, the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands or one of the districts of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands."

Setting up the categories like this would contain all things that are not US states or Washington DC and I think that is the correct way to do it. The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 13:36, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Hoping for quick help with climate change

As you can see at Template:Did you know nominations/Climate change in Puerto Rico if it is not fixed in the next couple of days it will not be linked from main page which would be a pity I think Chidgk1 (talk) 16:30, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

@Chidgk1: Thank you. I, personally, did not have time back in July. Although, I have worked on DYK twice (yes, a big 2 times!), and although I have thought about trying to do more- so far, I have lacked time and focus. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 14:08, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
