Usage

This template uses {{Source assess}} to produce an assessment table of the WP:THREE best sources given at Wikipedia:Articles for creation.

 {{Best sources | src1 | src2 | src3 | reviewed | i1 | ij1 | r1 | rj1 | s1 | sj1 | i2 | ij2 | r2 | rj2 | s2 | sj2 | i3 | ij3 | r3 | rj3 | s3 | sj3 | user }}

Unreviewed

When unreviewed, only the source parameters (src1, src2, and src3) have to be provided.

Code:

{{Best sources | src1=[https://example.com example.com] | src2=[https://example.org example.org] | src3=[https://example.net example.net] }}

Result:

Sources supporting notability

example.com
example.org
example.net

Reviewed

After a review, reviewed should be set to y, and the other parameters follow the same logic as in {{Source assess table}}.

Code:

{{Best sources | src1=[https://example.com example.com] | src2=[https://example.org example.org] | src3=[https://example.net example.net] | reviewed=y | i1=y | r1=y | s1=~ | sj1=Only one paragraph of coverage | i2=n | ij2=Self-published source | user=Example User }}

Result:

Assessment of sources supporting notability by Example User

Source	Independent?	Reliable?	Significant coverage?	Counts towards GNG?
example.com			~ Only one paragraph of coverage	~ Partial
example.org	Self-published source			✘ No
example.net				? Unknown
