Template:VaultOrganisationAssessment
Assessment panel for pages covering investigation teams, societies, clubs and similar hobbyist or grassroots organisations — as distinct from formal academic research bodies ({{VaultResearchAssessment}}), individuals ({{VaultProfileAssessment}}), locations ({{VaultLocationAssessment}}), or documented works ({{VaultWorkAssessment}}).
Designed for groups whose significance lies in what they did and who they influenced, rather than in a body of formal findings — e.g. local ghost-hunting teams, UFO spotter clubs, cryptid search parties, folklore societies.
Place below the article introduction.

Parameters
- scope — geographic reach or subject-matter focus
- methodology — how the group actually investigated things
- key_members — founders or other notable individuals, most useful when they don't already have a full profile page
- notable_case — the group's most significant or representative investigation
- successor — any organisation that continued its work, if applicable
- current_status — Active / Defunct / Dissolved / Merged / Renamed, etc. (distinct from the infobox status field — use this to add nuance, e.g. "Defunct as an independent team; absorbed into successor organisation")
- legacy — a neutral summary of why the group matters to the Vault's documented history. Avoid asserting whether any investigation's findings were genuine.
