Article quality scale

Status	Required meaning
Developing	Useful coverage exists, but important sourcing, structure, or completeness work remains.
Reviewed	A named reviewer checked a specific revision for structure, obvious errors, citation function, and policy compliance.
Verified	A named reviewer checked a specific revision and confirmed that major factual claims are supported by appropriate sources.
Featured	A verified article that also meets high standards for completeness, writing, illustration, navigation, accessibility, and maintenance.

Broken references, cite errors, raw promotional links, unresolved contradictions, or missing review records prevent status promotion.
