Rating in quality scale and importance

Articles related to Chile needs to have a rating on the quality scale and importance. I propose that in this section we should vote for the importance and quality Chile-related articles. Please read the articles before voting and read about the quality scale and importance below in this page. As voting system i propose that each article should need al least 11 votes from members of the project to gain a rating on both quality and importance. If you are going to vote please vote on both quality and importance please. If you know how to do templates it would be usuful if you proposed templates for importance and quality.

Articles rating

How do we add articles to if such page doesn't exist? Any guidelines? Should we move the "Requests" list from the Wikipedia:Chile-related regional notice board to this new category? Can I just go around searching for very small articles and tags them as Chile-stub (or specifics Chile-bio-stub/Chile-geo-stub)? Is this kind of behavior correct?

Photos / images submission

I have literally thousands of hi-res (3000x2008) pictures taken by me which I'd gladly upload if anyone requests a copy of one of them for a specific article, as there are so many I'd like to expose the link where I have them posted, feel free to request from amongst them, they are at Flickr. NOTE: Some of them are from other countries where I've been, but those are just a few compared to Chilean ones, most are from either Magallanes or Santiago and its surroundings, including Torres del Paine, Puerto Williams, Antarctica, Punta Arenas, Parral, Rancagua, and many central Andes Mountains such as Pochoco, La Cruz, Manquehue, Provincia and El Morado.

Article Tracking

After a while of participating in Wikipedia, I think there are a bunch of tools which may be useful for of Chile Project, mostly bots, but as I'm absolutely clueless about them (which do exist, and where can I add new bots), is that I raise this issue as a public matter of discussion, trying to improve our "performance" ;)

We should have some "article size bot", and "missing articles bot", attached either to categories or to an article list, the first one will tel us which are the least developed articles and the later would give us information about which articles we should create, I think this will really help us. Are bots for this already in Wikipedia? If not, where can I attach a self-made one? Are there any tutorials about it? If not needed, is there any particular Wikipedia function that solves any of these issues?

About categories: can categories be hierarchically related? i.e. parent categories list articles included in child categories. Can one create such a category tree? For example we could create a branch like this: Chile => Magallanes Region => Geography of Magallanes Region, similar examples with, flora & fauna are possible, and other themes like those, this hierarchies could be particularly helpful when finding relates articles while doing the revision process.

I suggest that we should also be very thorough at coordinate templates use, I have an Excel file from NIMA (US National Imagery and Mapping Agency) with all the places they have about Chile, it included both name and coordinates, as well as some other extra information that I've never used. This file was created by me using public data downloadable from NIMA's web site, so I think we could share it to use it as a basis for our work.
