Label Criteria Articles Editor's experience Example
Featured article FA
{{FA-Class}}
should only be used for articles that are currently listed as featured articles FA-Class Montreal articles No further editing is necessary unless new published information has come to light. Gilwell Park (as of January 2007)
A
{{A-Class}}
Should only be used for articles that could at least be considered for featured article status, corresponds to the "Wikipedia 1.0" standard. A-Class Montreal articles Minor edits and adjustments would improve the article, particularly if brought to bear by a subject-matter expert. Peer-review would be helpful at this stage. Durian (as of June 2006)
Good article GA
{{GA-Class}}
Only used for articles currently listed as good articles) article must pass through the Good article nomination process. GA-Class Montreal articles Some editing will clearly be helpful, but not necessary for a good reader experience. If the article is not already fully wikified, now is the time. Agriculture (as of June 2006)
B
{{B-Class}}
Has significant gaps or missing elements or references, needs substantial editing. Articles that are close to GA status but don't meet the Good article criteria should be B- or Start-class articles. B-Class Montreal articles Considerable editing is still needed, including filling in some important gaps or correcting significant policy errors. Munich air disaster (as of May 2006) has a lot of helpful material but contains too many lists, and needs more prose content & references.
Start
{{Start-Class}}
The article has a meaningful amount of good content, but it is still weak in many areas. Start-Class Montreal articles Substantial editing is needed, most material for a complete article needs to be added. This article still needs to be completed, so an article cleanup tag is inappropriate at this stage. Real analysis (as of November 2006)
Stub
{{Stub-Class}}
The article is either a very short article or a rough collection of information that will need much work to bring it to A-Class level. Stub-Class Montreal articles Any editing or additional material can be helpful. Coffee table book (as of July 2005)
