message: Who is doing this assessments and when? What are criteria for importance and quality (can you add some tennis related articles for examples, and not basic wiki articles)? --Göran Smith 00:46, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done. As for who is doing the assessment...we are. Any member of the tennis Wikiproject.. Sorry if I replied a bit late, I didn't know a page was created here until today... --KZ Talk  • Contrib 08:19, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

=== Guidance Quality ===
* Stub - Article created, basic infobox/article template/layout complete, at least the main reference.
* Start - Answers: Who, What, When, Where, maybe Why it is here/important. Yearly/tournament instances/results should have the completed draw/results.
* C - Solid article, good references, complete discussion of topic. Yearly/tournament instances/results should illustrate place within the Tour/Year/Tournament schedule.
* B - Above average discussion of topic
* A - is essentially a project indicator to get it reviewed for GA/FL status
* Other higher statuses are performed by consensus from people outside the project.
The general goal is to get the "Top" articles to "A" status (or above)
=== Guidance Importance ===
* Top - Grand Slam, Major, top 10 player; Current Tournaments within 5-ish years
* High - Tours (ATP, WTA) WTT; Top 25 player; any with a Grand Slam or Major win; Grand Slam/Major yearly entries (last decade).
* Mid - Sub-Tour tournaments (Majors/Slam older than a decade); Any other player, coach, commentator, etc. Equipment, Terminology, etc.
* Low - Pretty much every thing else.
* NA  - is for "Administrative" pages; Categories, templates, etc.
* ??? - means un-assessed; so go take a look and assess it!

message: Hi everybody,
I don't know if anyone noticed by now, but Davis Cup webpage address structure has changed, and among other things all player IDs have changed. There is quite a lot of changes that have to be done on Wikidata (thousands? dozens of thousands?), unless somebody figures how to replace every single ID there. I've replaced some IDs for Israeli, Canadian and Spanish players but definitely won't be able to finish all this by myself. --Deinocheirus (talk) 17:05, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, it looks like Davis Cup has changed their formatting. I just changed our template to link to the proper website, but all player's numbers have changed.... it sucks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:53, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

text: I also just emailed Davis Cup to make sure this is a permanent change because it'll take months/years to fix them all. Fyunck(click) (talk) 00:07, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: What would be good to have is a table of player IDs (old and new, plus their names) and if that's obtained, I'm sure somebody can automate the process and have a bot update all the ID numbers. Schwede66 01:38, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: But if you've taken the time to write down the two numbers and player's name, by that time I could have updated it by editing the player page. It's a long process regardless. Fyunck(click) (talk) 01:46, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Not if the Davis Cup people can give you a spreadsheet. Schwede66 02:34, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I somehow doubt that will happen, but I did let them know that traffic to their site will be much lower because of the months/years it will take to update our player bios. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:53, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: This is also being talked about at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Tennis#FedCup so I'll continue it over there. Fyunck(click) (talk) 08:15, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
