From OWASP Project

This assessment area focuses on assessing the quality of OWASP TOOLS and DOCUMENTATION(Projects). The resulting ratings are used within the project to aid in recognizing excellent contributions and identifying topics in need of further work.

FAQ

1. What is the purpose of the project ratings? 

The rating system allows OWASP to monitor the quality of Projects in our subject areas, and to prioritize work on these projects. It is also utilized to prepare for static releases of Wikipedia content.

2. How do I add an project (tool or documentation) to the OWASP Projects?

4. How do I rate an projects? 

5. Can I request that someone else rate an project? 

Of course; to do so, please list it in the section for assessment requests below.

6. Why didn't the reviewer leave any comments? 

Unfortunately, due to the volume of projects that need to be assessed, we are unable to leave detailed comments in most cases. If you have particular questions, you might ask the person who assessed the project; they will usually be happy to provide you with their reasoning.

7. Where can I get more comments about an project? 

The review department can conduct more thorough examination of projects; please submit it for peer review there.

8. What if I don't agree with a rating? 

You can list it in the section for assessment requests below, and someone will take a look at it. Alternately, you can ask any member of the project to rate the project again. Please note that some of the available levels have an associated formal review process; this is documented in the assessment scale.

9. Aren't the ratings subjective? 

Yes, they are somewhat subjective, but it's the best system we've been able to devise. If you have a better idea, please don't hesitate to let us know!

10. What about lists? 

Lists are assessed using the same scale as other projects; however, they progress towards featured list rather than featured project status.

11. What if I have a question not listed here? 

If your question concerns the project assessment process specifically, please refer to the discussion page for this department; for any other issues, you can go to the main project discussion page, or contact the project coordinators directly.
