Talk:Big Walnut High School

Assessment Request: WP Schools

For Big Walnut High School, I didn't actually do an assessment, I just seemed to make a note of doing so. I checked the logs, and I didn't do one. My fault completely, but I agree with the page the way it's assessed.

I just made a few updates, but please note the "citation needed" tags. (Ex.: ) It's best you use proper {{Citation}} format. See Citation Templates for the correct methodology. Preferred sources included newspaper, journals and other third-party documents that show NPOV towards the subject. Also keep the article up-to-date, today being the most current day of the school's existence and everything in the past should be properly noted, there should be no "a science wing is going to be built by Oct. 2007", etc. Though the BWHS article doesn't seem to have much of an issue with that.

Other than that: see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools#Structure for the recommended structure for articles and tips for what to include. Wikipedia:Article_development#How_to_develop_an_article help you expand your article. Become familiar with Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment which provides a good general overview of what articles should look like. Take a look at Wikipedia:Good article criteria and Wikipedia:Featured article criteria to see what you're eventually trying to attain with the BWHS site.

B-class assessment

Criteria

B {{B-Class}}

The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations where necessary. It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. The use of citation templates such as {{cite web}} is not required, but the use of <ref></ref> tags is encouraged. The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing. The article has a defined structure, including a lead section and all appropriate sections of content. It contains all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind. The article is reasonably well written. The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it certainly need not be "brilliant". The Manual of Style need not be followed rigorously. The article contains supporting materials, such as an infobox, images, or diagrams, where appropriate. It should have an infobox where relevant and useful. Images are not required, although illustrated articles are encouraged. The article presents its content in an appropriately accessible way. It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.

Results

1. Only 2 references. You need one or more for each claim (ie.: The school was built in 1991, after the district decided that a new high school was needed.) Two citations are desirable here, one to verify the building and one for the need. These may be the same source. Use <ref name="example1">Reference text here</ref> (ie.: The school was built in 1991<ref name="example1">Reference text here</ref>, after the district decided that a new high school was needed.<ref name="example1"> if the source is the same.)

2. A good start. See expansion advice above for more on this topic.

3. Again, see advice given above.

4. What's there is good and well-written. No significant errors in prose.

5. No pictures or imagery. If possible take one yourself and upload it to Wikimedia Commons.

6. No major problems there.

Conclusion

Great start and keep up the good work. Request another assessment in the future should you feel that the BWHS has significantly changed.

Please feel free to contact me or any of the assessors listed here with questions or clarifications.

I know this is a long answer, but I hope it helps you on your way. Calebrw (talk) 21:37, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
