Article Statistics

Table reflects values at 8:00 PM Eastern on July 30.
Monthly goal: Find the backstory. All too often, pages about drivers, teams or tracks have only content about NASCAR's top three national series. To improve article quality, information about other series or events that those drivers, teams and tracks are involved in should be added, backed up by reliable sources.

Article Statistics

Table reflects values at 7:00 PM Eastern on August 31.
Monthly goal: Focus on the sources. In the thick of Silly Season, it is easy for random people to make a website, perpetuate a rumor, and have that be picked up here. Two sites that have proven to be big on rumors before, and sometimes eating it in a big way, are Beyond the Flag and TobyChristie.com. Please use other sources, such as NASCAR.com, Jayski.com, or team/driver releases as citations in articles. Additionally, there has been a decline in the quality of the new work being generated by the project. New content, related to silly season or not, should always be reliably sourced so we can avoid the ugly {{refimprove}} tags at the top of articles.
