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.

There are a few categories that I think could use renaming, deleting, or just clarifying. I've always been a little unsure why Category:Crime podcasts isn't "True crime podcasts" considering the phrase is used so often in reliable sources. Is it because some crime podcasts are fictional? I've also wondered why Category:Comedy and humor podcasts aren't just "comedy podcasts". I don't know if I've ever seen sources call a podcast a "humor podcast". Is Category:Audio podcasts even necessary? Aren't all podcasts audio podcasts? What about Category:Video podcasts? Aren't these just VLogs or YouTube channels? We also still need to clarify what counts as an Category:Improvisational podcasts. I noticed the recent addition of Category:Mystery podcasts, which could also use a description. I think there are also some additions that could be made to Category:Podcasting companies. TipsyElephant ( talk) 03:01, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
We should create a category called "indie podcasts" or at least "indie scripted podcasts". something along those lines. I'll look into what phrases reliable sources use and whether the phrase is used for scripted podcasts only or for podcasts in general. TipsyElephant ( talk) 13:01, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
We should create a Template:WikiProject Podcasting invite so we can attract more members to the project. The activity level of the project tends to be pretty low and we typically only have one or two new members every year. TipsyElephant ( talk) 15:30, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
It looks like there are a ton of examples at Category:WikiProject invitation templates. A few that are for mediums of entertainment include Template:WPTelevision-invite, Template:WPComics-invitation, and Template:BBC invite. TipsyElephant ( talk) 00:56, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
We should do an informal drive to add podcast covers. TipsyElephant ( talk) 11:56, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
A series of articles which may be of interest to members of this project— Critical Role (campaign one), Critical Role (campaign two), and Critical Role (campaign three)—has been proposed for renaming. If you are interested, please participate in the move discussion. Thank you. Sariel Xilo ( talk) 19:09, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
