<big>'''Welcome to ICANNWiki'''</big>, a project to create a free, complete, up-to-date, and reliable guide to the world of [[ICANN]].  It is intended for use by people attending [[ICANN]] conferences as well as those following what's happening from afar.  So far we have [[Special:Statistics|{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}]] articles written and, of course, have plenty more [[ICANNWiki:Community portal|to do]]!


We are in the process of migrating content from [http://www.icannwiki.org the original site] to the new site, here at '''ICANNWiki.com'''.

Stub sorting

These templates can be placed at the end of articles to help categorize articles that need some work. 'Stubs' are articles that have just a few sentences and need expansion.

Barnstar

An award that can be placed at another user's talk for improving articles.

Review and assessment

Assessment

Adopted from WikiProject Molecular and Cell Biology statistics page. The standard system on wikipedia is for each article to be assigned two grades: one for completeness and another for significance. These grades as assigned to talk page. If you have improved an article, you may adjust the entry in the template yourself, or you may simply put a remark in the talk page that improvements have been done.

Quality scale

Class is determined by how well written an article is based on completeness, clarity and referencing. Articles typically are slowly improved up the levels until they reach A-Class, at which point they go through a more thorough review process with strict criteria to become Good Articles (GA) and Featured Articles (FA).

  • FA — Among the best articles that Wikipedia has to offer. These articles have been through an extensive review process to meet the highest standards.
  • GA — Articles that have been reviewed and meet the good article standards.
  • A — Excellent articles of a length suitable for the subject that provide a well-written, reasonably clear and complete description of the topic.
  • B — Articles that contain most of the necessary material but have significant gaps, missing elements or references.
  • C — Articles that are missing important content, contains irrelevant material, or are poorly referenced.
  • Start — Articles that have a meaningful amount of good content, but are still weak in many areas, possibly lacking a key element such as a standard infobox.
  • Stub — Articles that are either very short or rough collections of information that will need much work.

Importance scale

Article significance is based loosely on how aware the ICANN Community is of the topic, and therefore how likely they are to consult ICW.

  • Top — Subjects that are first closely examined in high school or earlier or that receive significant attention in the media.
  • High — Subjects that are generally examined at university or are briefly mentioned at the high school level.
  • Mid — Subjects that are examined at later years of university courses.
  • Low — Obscure subjects that are important to researchers in the specific field.
