Welcome to the assessment department of the Maritime transport task force! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles dealing with maritime transport and closely related subjects. While much of the work is done in conjunction with the WP:1.0 program, the article ratings are also used within the project itself to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.
The ratings are done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the Template:Tlx project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:Maritime transport task force articles by quality and Category:Maritime transport task force articles by importance, which serves as the foundation for an automatically generated worklist (Template:WP1).

Frequently asked questions
- How can I get my article rated?
- Please list it in the section for assessment requests below.
- Who can assess articles?
- Any member of the WikiProject Maritime Trades is free to add or change the rating of an article.
- Why didn't the reviewer leave any comments?
- Unfortunately, due to the volume of articles that need to be assessed, we are unable to leave detailed comments in most cases. If you have particular questions, you might ask the person who assessed the article; they will usually be happy to provide you with their reasoning.
- What if I don't agree with a rating?
- You can list it in the section for assessment requests below, and someone will take a look at it. Alternately, you can ask any member of the project to rate the article again.
- Aren't the ratings subjective?
- Yes, they are, but it's the best system we've been able to devise; if you have a better idea, please don't hesitate to let us know!
If you have any other questions not listed here, please feel free to ask them on the discussion page for this department.

Disputes
If you think a page has inaccurate scores, the easiest thing to do is to change the scores. If nobody objects, then you were probably right! Before changing scores, please take a few moments to look through the grading scheme below.
An individual article's talk page is a good place to start discussions. However, keep in mind that people from the project might not be watching that talk page. If you want to ensure a response, you can start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Transport/Maritime transport task force.
If you think an article should be included in the project, it probably should. The only caveat is to not take over huge chunks of pages that are better left to another project. As an easy example, there are hundreds of articles on Navy ships in Wikipedia. They're covered by the military history project, and we certainly don't need to tag them all as Maritime Trades pages.
On the other hand, biographies will tend to fall into multiple projects. Union articles tend to be in both Organized Labour and Maritime Trades. If you have questions or comments, please post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Transport/Maritime transport task force.
