Welcome to the assessment department of WikiProject courts and judges! This department focuses on assessing the quality of Wikipedia's articles about United States courts and judges. While much of the work is done in conjunction with the WP:1.0 program, the article ratings are also used within the project itself to aid in recognising excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.
The ratings are done in a distributed fashion through parameters in the {{WikiProject USCJ}} project banner; this causes the articles to be placed in the appropriate sub-categories of Category:United States courts and judges articles by quality and Category:United States courts and judges articles by importance.
