{{Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Holy Roman Empire articles by quality statistics}}

Welcome to the Holy Roman Empire task force of WikiProject Former countries, a subproject within the scope of the Empires bureau.

Scope

The aim of this task force is to improve the quality and accessibility of articles significant to the Holy Roman Empire (962-1806). Add the HRE-taskforce=yes parameter to the WPFC banner on all pages that fall within this category.

Portal

To assist task force members and other editors to create, improve and manage articles relating to the Holy Roman Empire, there is a dedicated portal here.

Vital articles

These are the vital articles of Wikipedia that are within the scope of the Holy Roman Empire task force. Level 3 articles are in bold, with the remainder being level 4. Vital articles can be checked for on these lists; Vital articles/Expanded/History and Vital_articles/Expanded/People. Let's make it our task force's priority to bring all these articles up to at least B-Class.

Articles needing improvement

Near B-Class

Add C-Class articles to this list that have only 1 or 2 unmet criteria, and place them in their appropriate columns. These articles require very little work to reach B-Class. When improving an article's Supporting materials criterion, use Wikimedia Commons as a source for images. The Red XN within each title definition links to a guideline further outlining how to meet the specific requirement. After a criteria contains 7 entries, place the remainder in a hidden Other entries list.

Referencing and citation

File:Red x.svg The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations where necessary.
It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. The use of either <ref> tags or citation templates such as {{cite web}} is not required.

Holy Roman Empire
Charlemagne
Confederation of the Rhine
Electorate of Saxony
Ferdinand II, Holy Roman Emperor
Imperial immediacy
Lotharingia

Other entries

Pfäfers Abbey
Principality of Ansbach
Alsace
Brandenburg
Duchy of Bavaria
History of Vienna
Burgundian Circle
Groningen (province)

Coverage and accuracy

File:Red x.svg The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies.
It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.

Brandenburg
Groningen (province)

Structure

File:Red x.svg The article has a defined structure.
Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.

Alsace

Grammar and style

File:Red x.svg The article is reasonably well-written.
The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it certainly need not be "brilliant". The Manual of Style need not be followed rigorously.

Duchy of Bavaria

Supporting materials

File:Red x.svg The article contains supporting materials where appropriate.
Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams and an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.

Accessibility

File:Red x.svg The article presents its content in an appropriately understandable way.
It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.

County of Mark
Pfäfers Abbey

C-Class

These articles have more than two of six unmet conditions needed to become a B-Class article.
