Project Quality control
This project is about 2 things: marking pages with quality issues (e.g. drafts or outdated pages) and improving those posts.
The main page of this project is Project:Quality control.
The start of this projects depends on User:Paula to: create templates for warnings about the quality of a page define quality standards (of course you are free to give inputs) Later we should: mark pages that don't meet the quality standards list them and then work on improving them

Welcome to the Project Quality control.
On this page we collect tasks about assuring the quality of pages on this wiki.

Main tasks

The main tasks for the near future are:

defining criteria for insufficient quality of an article
creating templates for warnings about the quality of a page
marking pages with insufficient quality with one of the warning templates
listing and categorizing posts with insufficient quality here
improving those articles and then removing the warnings

Members so far are:

Warning templates

The basic template for warning templates can be found at Template:Messagebox and can be used in a template with the code: {{Messagebox |hex= |image= |headline= |body=}}

For now these Category:Warning templates exist linking articles in Category:Articles with issues:

Template:Cleanup {{Cleanup |text=}} Category:Needs cleanup
Template:Draft {{Draft |text=}} Category:Drafts
Template:Outdated {{Outdated |text=}} Category:Outdated articles
Template:Under construction {{Under construction |text=}} Category:Under construction
Template:Unrelated {{Unrelated |text=}} Category:Unrelated
Template:Internal page with issues {{Internal page with issues |text=}} Category:Internal issues

Criteria

Category:Needs cleanup:

articles in Category:Beginners guides that contain too much information not intended for beginners
articles in Category:What are Fediverse projects? that don't follow the Project:Empty Fediverse project template

Category:Drafts:

articles that are clearly unfinished (generally too short, important headlines missing, sections too short, incomplete lists, ...)
articles the original author deems unfinished

Category:Outdated articles

articles that haven't been updated in a long time where info should just be checked for errors (e.g. dead links, depreciated projects, ...)
articles that contain information that is supposed to be regularly updated, but hasn't been in a while
articles that by nature are never really up to date (should be updated regularly, but message should never be removed)

Category:Under construction

articles that are undergoing heavy editing (e.g. moving info to or from other articles)

Category:Unrelated

articles that are not strictly related to the Fediverse and might be moved somewhere else at some point.

Category:Internal issues

any page that is in any namespace other than the main namespace and has any issue.

Category:Drafted or missing sections

any section that is either missing completely or is missing crucial information.

Category:Outdated sections

sections that haven't been updated in a long time where info should just be checked for errors (e.g. dead links, depreciated projects, ...)

Category:Sections that need cleanup

quite similar to drafted sections, but additionally for sections that contain too much content

Category:Sections with internal issues

sections on non-main-namespace pages that have any issues
