Article title
Mangrove crab
Article Evaluation
My review of what's present in the article
Lead: Doesn't give a summary of the article just is a short paragraph about the crabs.
Content: There is a lot of detail missing from the page and it feels quite general.
Tone: feels a bit informal but is otherwise neutral.
Sources: the sources seem good but the article is just lacking the full range of information found in the sources.
Organization: there are not enough sections as the page is brief.
Talk page: the only thing on the page is what I added it was rated low and needs work.
Overall: what is present is good work but it doesn't capture the full extent of the topic and needs many more sources and topics included in the article.
