In Wikipedia:Peer review they say we should put an appropriate tag on the Talk page of the article currently being peer-reviewed. Do you think it would be appropriate for our informal reviews to follow this step ? SyG 06:57, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
The minimum duration of the review process is currently defined as 5 days. Given the limited (but growing!) number of participants in our chess project, it seems a bit short to me and I would like to suggest to increase it. What do you think ?SyG 09:10, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
It seems experience now shows it is a bit optimistic to expect "someone not involved in the review" to come here and close some reviews, so I would authorise anyone to close a review, provided the minimum duration criteria have been fulfilled. I will change the article that way, please feel free to revert if you think otherwise. SyG 09:28, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
I wonder why we set the criteria for A-class basically as "should ... largely satisfy the featured article criteria". In WP:ASSESS they demand a bit less than it. I suspect that we start here a "private" fork of WP:FAC process - why? In my opinion, standard A-class articles should be those clearly below FAC criteria but still very good and almost complete in all important parts.
Moreover, I am not happy with voting Support/Object here. Every member of the project is allowed to set the evaluations herself, and if someone else does not agree, he can change the assesment immediately, without voting. If a dispute arises, it can be solved normally on the talk pages.
I think that Review process should be rather a place where ideas can be exchanged about how to make an article better (instead of criticism without consequences) and it should be therefore started by a person who really wishes to work on the given article - otherwise many of the good tips will probably stay here unused for a long, long time. --Ioannes Pragensis 10:31, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
Have today reviewed all existing B-Class articles, a total of 128. Have viewed and read them briefly(not to a deep level) including checking each talk page and made notes on obvious weak points. Here is a summary of the brief reviews.ChessCreator (talk) 01:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
B+, these listed in this section seem to have no serious issues so they are potentially worth investigating further for a review.
Wording to the right indicate a slight weakness if any was found. In this section the weakness would have been very slight.

(The following was moved from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Chess/FAQ/Assessment to merge discussion about reviews into one place ChessCreator (talk) 14:53, 20 March 2008 (UTC))
FYI, Endgame tablebase has been a featured article candidate since late March. youngvalter 19:48, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Another article that I think is really good is chess opening. Bubba73 22:10, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Endgame tablebase FAC review ended — the result was not to promote it. It is still a good article candidate but I don't think much feedback can be expected from there. Maybe we can list it for peer review later, but I'd give it at least a couple of months, as right now I am, frankly, rather fed up with the article. ;) ZeroOne 09:24, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
I tried to add rules of chess on the main review page, using the format of the other nominated article, but it didn't work correctly. Can someone fix it or tell me how to fix it? Bubba73 (talk), 00:13, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
