Article grading scheme

Wikipedia has a grading scheme for articles, which can be useful for figuring out how to improve your article. These are the basic quality levels.

FA The article meets the featured article criteria and has gone through the FA candidates process.
GA The article meets the good article criteria and has gone through a successful good article nomination.
B The article is mostly complete and without major issues, but requires some further work to reach good article standards.
C The article is substantial, but is still missing important content or contains a lot of irrelevant material.
Start An article that is developing, but which is quite incomplete and may require further reliable sources.
Stub A very basic description of the topic.
