American football Project‑class

This page is within the scope of WikiProject American football, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of American football on Misplaced Pages. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks.American footballWikipedia:WikiProject American footballTemplate:WikiProject American footballAmerican football Project This page does not require a rating on Misplaced Pages's content assessment scale.

Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments are used by Misplaced Pages editors to rate the quality of articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Misplaced Pages: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 decides 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.

Reason for Seasons lists containing relocated teams

Hi there, this is just a curious question from someone trying to gain rationale over on ice hockey. Why do the season-by-season records, coaches, and players of NFL teams such as the Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Rams, and Tennesee Titans include their relocated counterparts? Such as the Tennessee Titans including Houston Oilers players and coaches and their records. Why not split the articles? Conyo14 (talk) 07:07, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

Discussion at Misplaced Pages:Content assessment

 You are invited to join the discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:Content assessment#Proposal: Reclassification of Current & Future-Classes as time parameter, which is within the scope of this WikiProject. This WikiProject received this message because it currently uses "Current" and/or "Future" class(es). There is a proposal to split these two article "classes" into a new parameter "time", in order to standardise article-rating across Misplaced Pages (per RfC), while also allowing simultaneous usage of quality criteria and time for interest projects. Thanks! —CX Zoom 20:52, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

American football stubs

Misplaced Pages guidelines were changed early last year to require that all sports biographies have at least one piece of WP:SIGCOV (not counting database entries). In recent months, there have been efforts to draftify en masse sport substubs that do not comply with this requirement. Accordingly, we have begun a campaign to improve American football biographies that could be targeted in a similar RfC. See full list of most vulnerable American football articles here. The list is not intended as criticism of anyone, as such stubs were permitted prior to the change in policy. Instead, the purpose is to encourage each of us to clean up these stubs so as to avoid draftification or deletion. I am hoping that all American football project members will revisit some of these articles to add the required SIGCOV. Thanks, Cbl62 (talk) 01:00, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
