From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This user sub-page is an attempt to catalogue/list articles alongside their classification, in an attempt to get a better overview of where work is needed and where great work has been done to improve the quality of Wikipedia's articles. Please note, that I have not assessed any of the articles below; I am just reporting the classifications as they stood at the date I added the table.
Archbishops of Canterbury (pre-Norman Conquest)[ edit ]
As of 24 May 2014 (GMT).
Monarchs of England [ edit ]
As of 24 May 2014 (GMT).
Taken from the List of cities in the United Kingdom article on 26 May 2015. The grades refer to the linked articles. In more recent grants, city status has been conferred on local government districts rather than individual settlements. Where this is the case, the grade refers to that district, not the settlement. I have also added a column for the settlements; their grades appear in brackets after their names.
