About Us

The History Assessment Department, supported by WikiProject History, finds historical articles for the first time and rates them on quality and importance scales. A template is then placed on the article's talk page stating that the article is within the scope of WikiProject History and displaying what rating the article has been given.

Historical articles can be found in Category:History and its subcategories.
