Wikiproject: Computing
according to the computing Wikiproject page, the article falls under the lowest class quality (stub-class) which means a very basic description of the topic where any editing and additional information added would be useful to the article. Furthermore, on the talk page a user is quoted as saying "This article was a redirect to McAfee, which makes no sense at least currently as the McAfee article has no information on Operation Shady RAT", hence further classifying it as a poor article.
Good Article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FC_Barcelona
Good features:
—well organised with timeframe;
—many photos and illustrations are included to provide a better understanding to readers;
—different stages were divided by different coaches as a significant era time point;
—honors and records were provided as a statistical prospective for readers;
—players and staff are introduced to give a better picture for the formation of the club.
The article is good by integrating different parts logically and systematically. On the right side of the page it shows the seal of the club and more information about the stadium. The first major part of the article introduces the history of the club with major events or progress. The history part was divided by different coaches as different stages to provide readers better overview and understanding about its progress and achievement.
