Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey

Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to ice hockey. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

Departments

Assessment

The assessment department focuses on assessing the quality of project-supported 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 the {{Ice hockey}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in a set of categories that serves as the basis for an automatically generated worklist.
