message: I have just rated the pullover-wearer as start/mid. Because of his huge record sales, I can see that might deserve a high-importance rating, but I can't bring myself to do it.  If anyone disagrees with start/mid, feel free to change it. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:58, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  A POV assessment 

message: There is a proposal to create a new C-class on the WP1.0 assessment scale, which may be of interest to members of this project. See Wikipedia talk:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment#Proposal_-_adding_C-class_between_GA-Class_and_Start-Class. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:50, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  C-Class articles 

message: Can you advise on the suitability of using the flag of the LVF on all loyalist paramilitary pages? I have severe doubts as to it suitability (and I'm not referring to color!), since the LVF is a UVF splinter-group and yet its flag appears in the loyalist template that appears on the UVF page? I have removed the loyalist template from the page on the Shankill Butchers, as they were members of the UVF. Billsmith60 (talk) 09:37, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You have also asked this question at Talk:Ulster loyalism and that seems like a better place to ascertain an opinion. This page is for WikiProject Ireland assessment discussions. You might also ask at WikiProject Unionism in Ireland talk page. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 19:48, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

message: What a way to end the year with 22,000 article in the project and only 88 unassessed! Well done folks. In 18 months we have gone from 1,100 articles to this. What's next? Review the Top and High importance articles to see if they fit the assessment. ww2censor (talk) 06:33, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: 22,000 exactly

message: I used to use the script at User:Outriggr/metadatatest.js for assessments, but alas it is no more.  I found it so useful that I have resurrected it, at User:BrownHairedGirl/metadatatest.js. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:07, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, that sounds great I miss it too, but now that I have pasted it into my monobook.js page and restarted the browser, now what - nothing shows up. A, do you have any specific instructions, and B, how do we select and modify the projects we want to be able to assess? Are you back or just visiting? Thanks ww2censor (talk) 21:20, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I copied the script text from your monobook page and now it works fine. I made the mistake of pasting the text from the metadatatest page. A question is how does one set up default parameters, if possible. Great work, I am thrilled to have this working again because it allows assessment and reassessment very quickly indeed but if you are offering it publically you will need some instructions for other folks. Thanks ww2censor (talk) 05:20, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

text: And the note was very welcome - hand-classification became tedious after having had various scripts.  I was seconding the script and welcome, no pressure re. instruction, I understand.  I think most people with experience of assessment will find it pretty intuitive.  Good to see one of Ireland's best contributors, visiting or otherwise. SeoR (talk) 22:51, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That's a lovely thing to say -- thank you!  :) --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:31, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

text: I see that the documentation is still in place at User talk:Outriggr/metadatatest.js#Installation.  There's not much, but I think that it's enough to get it installed. It might be a good idea to expand it, though, if you have the energy (and if you aren't put off by Outriggr's rather mistaken piece at the top about how assessment is not a good idea after all). --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:19, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Assessment script 

message: Is there any way of assessing by numbers of hits as well? I've found a website - http://stats.grok.se/ - that can show readers on a quarterly basis. Can/could a script be worked out to add this to the Irish pages data?PatrickGuinness (talk) 08:59, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: No idea but I'll ask around. I would imagine that because two different sources are used it might be quite difficult to combine them in any meaningful way especially as the assessment table does not provide any individual article data. Exactly what sort of stats would one add to the project assessment tables if it were even possible? Don't forget we also have Wikipedia:WikiProject Ireland/Popular pages. BTW, the "Traffic stats" button on the left toolbar call on http://stats.grok.se/ for its results which are in fact monthly with individual day stats available by clicking on the "toggle lables" button. ww2censor (talk) 09:22, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Numbers of readers

message: Is it possible to include numbers of redirects in the main table? Other Wikiprojects typically include them and redirect is a value for the class parameter in the Wikiproject template. Thanks Declangi (talk) 04:07, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
