Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

Marie Brémont and Wwew345t

After being merged into List of French supercentenarians, I noticed that this user has unilaterally removed the redirect which retained consensus for five years (and IMO was a good merge), then reverting a restoration of the redirect by Sam Sailor. A look at the user's contributions, at Special:Contributions/Wwew345t shows that they are new, with less than 100 edits, and have done the same thing on many other longevity redirects, reverting editors such as Technopat, Devonian Wombat, and DerbyCountyinNZ, and even having gotten blocked for edit-warring by Ponyo, although disruptive behavior continues since the block expires. Ponyo, perhaps an indef is in order. 🐔 Chicdat  ^{Bawk to me!} 10:21, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Wwew345t's return to edit warring right after their block expired is, well, less than ideal, but it seems to have stopped now. Try to hammer out some sort of consensus on the redirects on the relevant talk pages if possible.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 18:25, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

I havent reverted any pages that have had a afd but I would like to know how I can try to restore a page that did Wwew345t (talk) 18:27, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Their familiarity with Wiki terminology suggests they have had previous user profiles. Possibly a sockpuppet of a blocked user. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 10:36, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Yes I am experienced in being a editor in longevity (on a differnt site) I'm not. sock Though Wwew345t (talk) 13:26, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

there are some pages deleted in 2018 that can be expanded to look better with more sources and some new pages that could be added my intention only is to expand the topic of longevity here because there is a severe lack of info Wwew345t (talk) 13:50, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Longevity biographies are usually deleted because they fail WP:BIO1E, WP:NOPAGE and/or WP:ANYBIO. In the past such bios were padded with longevity fanfluff including WP:OR, WP:SYNTH and WP:TRIVIA. The deleted bios do not increase in notability over time, in fact quite the opposite. Removing a redirect to resurrect such an article without addressing the relevant guidelines is, at the least, not constructive. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 07:38, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
