Wikipedia:WikiProject Books/Worklist
This is the project's main work list as we move towards Wikipedia 1.0 and also to be considered in a Wikipedia:WikiReader project. The articles are being evaluated according to the following criteria:
| Article progress grading scheme | |
|---|---|
 FA{{FA-Class}} | Reserved exclusively for articles that have received "Featured article" status after peer review, and meet the current criteria for featured articles. Example: Medal of Honor |
 A{{A-Class}} | The article provides a well-written, reasonably clear and complete description of the topic, as described in How to write a Great Article. It includes a well-written introduction to the topic, and an appropriate series of headings to break up the article. It should have sufficient external literature references, preferably from the "hard" (peer-reviewed where appropriate) literature rather than websites. It should be well illustrated, with no copyright problems. It should be at the stage where it could at least be considered for featured article status, and corresponds to the "Wikipedia 1.0" standard. Example: Ammonia (as of Oct 2005). |
| B {{B-Class}} | The article is "almost there" but it may be missing one of the following: references, balance of content, NPOV or an important section. Alternatively, the English may need a comprehensive rewrite to make it flow, or it may need to be edited to follow standard English spelling and conventions. With NPOV a well written B-class may correspond to the "Wikipedia 0.5" or "usable" standard. Example: Antarctica (as of Oct 2005) is a good start but contains too many lists, and it needs more prose content & references. |
| Start {{Start-Class}} | The article has a good amount of content, but it is still weak in certain areas, and may lack a table. For example an article on Africa might cover the geography well, but be weak on history and culture. Example: Arithmetic (as of Oct 2005). |
| Stub {{Stub-Class}} | The article is either a very short article or a stub that will need a lot of work to bring it to A-Class level, although there may be a significant amount of material in the article. |
