Welcome to the Women in classical music task force, an initiative of WikiProject Women in music.

Objectives

[edit]

This task force focuses on articles related to women with classical music including:

  • musicians and organizations articles


Our main goals are to:

  • ensure women with classical music articles are represented on Wikipedia by creating and editing related articles
  • establish and organize standards for Women in classical music-related articles resulting in well-written articles
  • improve the visibility of articles related to women's ice hockey by nominating them for DYK placement on the Wikipedia homepage, or improving them to good or featured status

To join, please add your name to the Members section. There are many ways for you to contribute - small and large. If you have a question, post it on the task force's main talk page.

Notability criteria

[edit]

Although there are women's orchestras expressly included in WikiProject Classical music's notability guideline: WP:CM, there is often enough media coverage about an instrumental performer, vocal performer, orchestral conductor, choral conducting, scholarly research, and contemporary composition. that meets the WP:GNG guideline, which takes precedence over WP:NHOCKEY. For musicians, see WP:NMUSIC.

The key to ensuring that an article that you create is not deleted is providing adequate referencing to meet WP:GNG .

  • Make sure the article talk page is tagged with {{WP Women in music|classical=yes}} and {{WP Women}} so that other editors can further improve the article or contribute to an Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion, if needed.

If you have any questions or run into any issues, feel free to post them on the this project's talk page.

Assessing articles

[edit]

Any member of the Women's Ice Hockey Task Force may assess ice hockey-related articles by following the guidelines below. If you aren't sure about an article, ask about it on the WikiProject Women's Sport assessment talk page.

An article's quality assessment is recorded using the |class= parameter in the {{WikiProject banner shell}}. Articles that have the {{WikiProject Women in Music}} banner template on their talk page will be added to the appropriate categories by quality.

The following standard grades may be used to describe the quality of mainspace articles (see Wikipedia:Content assessment for assessment criteria):



FA (for featured articles only; adds them to the FA-Class Women in classical music articles category)  FA
GA (for good articles only; adds them to the GA-Class Women in classical music articles category)  GA
B (for articles that satisfy all of the B-Class criteria; adds them to the B-Class Women in classical music articles category) B
C (for substantial articles; adds them to the C-Class Women in classical music articles category) C
Start (for developing articles; adds them to the Start-Class Women in classical music articles category) Start
Stub (for basic articles; adds them to the Stub-Class Women in classical music articles category) Stub
??? (articles for which a valid class has not yet been provided are listed in the Unassessed Women in classical music articles category) ???

An article's importance assessment is generated from the importance parameter in the {{WikiProject Women in Music}} project banner on its talk page:

{{WikiProject Women in Music|importance=???}}

The following values may be used for the importance parameter to describe the relative importance of the article within the project (see Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Priority of topic for assessment criteria):

Top (adds articles to Category:Top-importance Women in classical music articles)  Top 
High (adds articles to Category:High-importance Women in classical music articles)  High 
Mid (adds articles to Category:Mid-importance Women in classical music articles)  Mid
