== Templates ==
<!--
Any templates used by or applicable to the project. (Project banner, infoboxes, navboxes, userboxes, barnstars).
-->
===Tagging articles===
Specifying the article class quality (e.g. stub, start, b, etc..) and the importance (e.g. top, high, mid, low) will help us keep track of articles that need the most improvement.
===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.

=== Assessment ===
{{main|Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment}}
Adopted from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Molecular and Cell Biology/Statistics|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 articles by adding and/or updating the <code><nowiki>{{Wikiproject Limnology and Oceanography|class= |importance= }}</nowiki></code> template on that article's 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 [[WP:GA|Good Articles]] ('''GA''') and [[WP:FA|Featured Articles]] ('''FA''').
* '''''FA''''' — Among the [[WP:FA|best articles]] that Wikipedia has to offer. These articles have been through an extensive [[WP:FAC|review process]] to meet the [[WP:FACR|highest standards]].
* '''''GA''''' — Articles that have been [[WP:GAC|reviewed]] and meet the [[WP:GACR|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 [[Wikipedia:List of infoboxes|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.
