Thanach Although technically I'm from Brockton, I fit in better with Boston, and am told I sound like I grew up in a neighborhood of Irish Descent. Thanach 02:52, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Label Criteria Articles Editor's experience Example
FA
{{FA-Class}} 		Template:Chembox style | should only be used for articles that are currently listed as featured articles Template:Chembox style | FA-Class Boston articles Template:Chembox style | No further editing is necessary unless new published information has come to light. Template:Chembox style | Gilwell Park (as of January 2007)
A
{{A-Class}} 		Template:Chembox style | Should only be used for articles that could at least be considered for featured article status, corresponds to the "Wikipedia 1.0" standard. Template:Chembox style | A-Class Boston articles Template:Chembox style | 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. Template:Chembox style | Durian (as of June 2006)
GA
{{GA-Class}} 		Template:Chembox style | Only used for articles currently listed as good articles) article must pass through the Good article nomination process. Template:Chembox style | GA-Class Boston articles Template:Chembox style | Some editing will clearly be helpful, but not necessary for a good reader experience.

B
{{B-Class}} 		Template:Chembox style | 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. Template:Chembox style | B-Class Boston articles Template:Chembox style | Considerable editing is still needed, including filling in some important gaps or correcting significant policy errors. Template:Chembox style | 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}} 		Template:Chembox style | The article has a meaningful amount of good content, but it is still weak in many areas. Template:Chembox style | Start-Class Boston articles Template:Chembox style | 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. Template:Chembox style | Real analysis (as of November 2006)
Stub
{{Stub-Class}} 		Template:Chembox style | 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.

Goals

  • Cleanup pages that are related to Boston
  • Merge pages that should be merged
  • Watch Boston pages for vandalism
  • Create Pages for all Boston Neighborhoods
  • Expand Pages for Boston Neighborhoods
  • Expand and Create pages for Boston Personalities



Categories

Boston Neigborhoods

Looking for action items on the Neighboorhoods and discussion as to if they should be separated into major neighboorhoods and sub-neigboorhoods. For instance Kenmore Square, Fens and Fenway-Kenmore could all be considered part of the Fenway of which there is no section. Also should clean up Boston Neighborhoods adding a quick blurb about each section.
