Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Assessment
Welcome to the assessment department of WikiProject Ice Hockey. This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's ice hockey articles. The resulting article ratings are used within the project to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work, and are also expected to play a role in the WP:1.0 program.
The assessment is done in a distributed fashion through parameters in articles' talk page banners; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Ice Hockey articles by quality.
