Ratings

In order to rate articles, click the "rate" tab when on the page you wish to rank, then fill out the form in order to suggest an appropriate rating. If you feel the suggested rating is incorrect, you may override it and force a specific rating.

There are 5 official ratings (plus an additional "unknown" for any manually applied ratings which do not match), all described below.

Unknown

Unknown Quality Articles have been tagged with a quality level not recognized by the wiki, whether accidentally (incorrect spelling or capitalization) or intentionally (to request that somebody else rate the article).

If you encounter these, please evaluate and rate them according to the criteria below. Note that in some cases, a page may get an error when attempting to give them a proper rating, such as a "template loop" error.

Tattered

Tattered Quality Articles have many of the following characteristics:

• May be a stub article
• Lacks information
• Contains inaccurate information
• Is not categorized

This rating should only be used for articles that strictly need improvement. For example, pages for creatures, vermin, or stone types should not be rated as Tattered unless they are missing key components: infobox, description (creatures/vermin only), raws, and navigation box.

Fine

Fine Quality Articles have many of the following characteristics:

• Has a substantial number of redlinks, very few links or no links at all
• Contains little to no inaccurate information
• Contains some information that needs to be verified

Pages which are entirely auto-generated from the raws should be rated Fine.

  • May be missing some less-important information
• Has a sufficient number of links

• Includes all standard templates
  • Templates are completed when necessary (including butchering returns for creatures, labors for workshops, etc.)

• Has all appropriate templates
• DOES NOT have any pink text at the bottom of the Article Version template (these indicate some kind of problem; for details, view the Template:ArticleVersion page)
• Is properly/sufficiently linked to other articles
• Contains no inaccurate information, but may have a small amount of information that needs to be completely verified.
• Has multiple editors
