Forum:Removal/Change of Quality Scale

Okay look. I've had enough, so has Zapwire, so has 4th Hale. Quality Scale templates suck. This is the worst idea I have ever heard of. It sucks and blows. I mean, what? It is a red link because the person who created it can't spell. If you're looking for the page, click here: Club Penguin Wiki:Assesment Scale. Note that assessment is spelled wrong.

We aren't the ones to tell the reader how good an article is. They judge for themselves. They don't even care about the templates. There is no point even changing the Quality Scale to make it smaller. They are just not needed.

Look, the Assessment Scale project is epic fail. Not sure if you have noticed but Wikia already have some feature to assess articles. Scroll down to the bottom of the page. You will see 5 stars. Those 5 stars are used to rate an article! NOT SURE IF YOU HAVE NOTICED! I mean, why the heck do we have Quality Scale templates. They are enourmous and unnecessary. They serve no purpose, except to spam and distract the visitor. Some articles are completely topless. Just full of giant templates.

Look these are my main points:
 * 1) They are too big.
 * 2) They don't apply to the reader, just distract them from the article.
 * 3) We already have the rating system for that - use it!
 * 4) We already have stub templates. If an article is incomplete - just put a stub template on. You don't need anything else. If it's not a stub, it's complete. END OF.
 * 5) We aren't the ones to tell the reader how good an article is.

I agree

 * Only ones spared should be Archive and Featured. -- Zapwire  (Talk 13:01, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, and they should be amboxed. I mean what is the point of having all the extra space wasted when there is no text there. -- Թայգէրնոս  [[Image:Tigernosem.png|20px]] ( Chat| Edits|  Vandals) 13:04, September 5, 2009 (UTC)


 * Agree. Alx tried amboxing archive, but Seahorse rollbacked. I made the featured templates amboxed, but they had to have their ameteurish and huge image that made a big template instead of a small and pro image. The big one made the ambox pointless. -- Zapwire  (Talk 13:07, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
 * Move them onto the talk pages like on Wikipedia. --Yowuza yadderhouse |meh 15:23, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
