importance 

In general, articles are placed into "Top" importance if they are referenced as "see also" in the main article, as they are, as it were, the effective "second" articles on the subject that someone looking for information would see. All those articles which I had marked as "Top" are referenced in such a way in the main Intelligent design article. I do note that the project at present doesn't have the same phrasing for determining assessments as some of the other projects. I've noted in the past that Wikipedia:WikiProject Germany has among the most easily understood ways of determining assessment in their importance scale, and basically follow its guidelines even for other projects, at least in regard to the main sub-articles of the main article itself. I was actually thinking of trying to adjust those ratings to fit more easily for the id project, but am having some trouble with phrasing it. If, of course, you believe that the articles do not deserve such priority, feel free to adjust them. I make mistakes more often than I really like to admit.
