Template:Article assessment/doc
Place this banner at the top of an article's discussion page, preserving existing discussion. Edit the existing banner rather than adding another one.
{{Article assessment|class=|notes=}}
Leave the class empty for Unassessed. The seven local classes are Stub, Start, C, B, Good, Featured and Unassessed, ignoring case. An unsupported class displays Invalid and does not store a quality rating. See assessment criteria and review instructions. The bot does not award ratings.
Parameters
class: the existing local quality assessment, shared by the site-wide and enabled project records.notes: review notes and remaining work, displayed separately below project scope.ships,stations,systems,planets,engineers,equipment,materials,factionsandgameplay: onlyyesenables each subject flag, ignoring case. Several may be combined. They record article subjects, not editor membership. Preserve the existing class when adding a flag. See Project:WikiProjects.
The banner records assessments in Special:PageAssessments and adds quality-tracking categories only in the article discussion namespace (Talk, namespace 1). WikiProject article categories contain the articles themselves, synchronised from their project assessment records by User:EliteMaintenanceBot. Other namespaces display the banner without assessment storage or quality-category effects. There is no category suppression parameter. This presentation introduces no importance values or changes to assessment rules.
Examples
These examples render on this documentation subpage, outside the Talk namespace, so they do not store assessments or add assessment categories. Do not copy the example transclusions onto a Talk page just to preview them.

Presentation
The compact quality header shows the site-wide rating once. Enabled WikiProjects have separate scope rows and local project links. Review notes remain visible without a fixed height or scrolling panel. Scoped styles provide light, dark and narrow-screen layouts. The template-page preview and these examples do not alter any article's rating.
