- The {{WP British crime}} template has a class= parameter that provides an article assessment rating:

- {{WP British crime| class=??? }}
The following values may be used for the parameter. Please note that you must type them exactly as below as they are case-sensitive:

- B (adds articles to Category:B-Class British crime-related articles)
- Start (adds articles to Category:Start-Class British crime-related articles)
- Stub (adds articles to Category:Stub-Class British crime-related articles)
- NA (for pages where assessment is unnecessary, such as templates; adds items to Category:Non-article British crime-related pages)
If a rating is not assigned, the article will be filed in Category:Unassessed British crime-related articles. The class should be assigned according to the grading scheme. A list of Unassessed and In dispute articles can be discussed at Wikipedia:WikiProject British crime/Article assessment.
