Kumizone has a quality scale used to determine the quality of its content pages. This scale is a nine-point scale, containing the grades Crap, Cleanup, Short, Fact, Wrong, Trivial, Good, Great and Awesome as described below.

Style

Crap

(image)

This page is total crap!


Improve this article by: removing this obsolete template
tagged since never

An article is crap if the information discussed by the article makes no sense whatsoever to even an experienced Kumizonian. Crap pages need to be totally rewritten or even deleted, as they, by definition, have no useful content.


Cleanup

(image)

OMFG this page is disgusting!!


Improve this article by: removing this obsolete template
tagged since never

An article requires cleanup if it has useful information, but the writing style or formatting of the article is bad.


Short

(image)

OMG this page is short!!


Improve this article by: removing this obsolete template
tagged since never

An article is short if it has some useful information and is written in a good style, but contains less than one kilobyte (1,024 bytes) of text. A page can also become short when Candleja--


For punchline pages on which an eye-catching tag would be inappropriate, the template {{MiniShort}} can be used instead.


Content

Fact

(image)

This page has too large a proportion of factual information.

An article is too factual if none or almost none of it is based on opinion, sarcasm and so on. Articles with this tag probably belong over on Wikipedia. The entire point of this wiki is to be funny, so entirely truthful articles, while useful, are not within its scope.


Wrong

(image)

This page contains information which is just plain wrong.


Improve this article by: removing this obsolete template
tagged since never

An article is just plain wrong if, in an attempt to satisfy {{fact}}, obviously false information was added. Articles should go beyond facts and official sources in parody, but should not contradict either the above or existing extrapolations.


Trivial

(image)

This page is trivial.

It most likely cannot be improved at the present time, so it should be deleted or merged into/with other articles.
tagged since never

An article is said to be trivial if all of the following are true:

  • It is {{short}}
  • There are no other style or content issues
  • Nothing useful could be added to the article at the present time

Good

An article is good if it meets no other criteria on this page. Good articles do not have immediate edit needs, but should still be expanded and improved where possible. Good articles form the majority of the Kumizone pagebase and therefore do not have tags by default.

Great

(image)

This is a great page.

This article fulfills some positive criteria, but still needs improvements. Make these improvements and it just might qualify for excellency.
tagged since never

An article is great if the content and style already in the article are perfect, but does not include all the relevant information that it could.


Awesome

(image)

This page is awesome!

The content of this page is considered awesome, no matter how good the page is on the quality scale. Be careful when editing it!
tagged since never

An article is awesome if (as in {{great}}) the content and style already in the article are perfect, but it does include all relevant information.
