 | Evaluate an article
Complete your article evaluation below. Here are the key aspects to consider: Lead sectionA good lead section defines the topic and provides a concise overview. A reader who just wants to identify the topic can read the first sentence. A reader who wants a very brief overview of the most important things about it can read the first paragraph. A reader who wants a quick overview can read the whole lead section.
ContentA good Wikipedia article should cover all the important aspects of a topic, without putting too much weight on one part while neglecting another.
Tone and BalanceWikipedia articles should be written from a neutral point of view; if there are substantial differences of interpretation or controversies among published, reliable sources, those views should be described as fairly as possible.
Sources and ReferencesA Wikipedia article should be based on the best sources available for the topic at hand. When possible, this means academic and peer-reviewed publications or scholarly books.
Organization and writing qualityThe writing should be clear and professional, the content should be organized sensibly into sections.
Images and Media
Talk page discussionThe article's talk page — and any discussions among other Wikipedia editors that have been taking place there — can be a useful window into the state of an article, and might help you focus on important aspects that you didn't think of.
Overall impressions
Examples of good feedbackA good article evaluation can take a number of forms. The most essential things are to clearly identify the biggest shortcomings, and provide specific guidance on how the article can be improved. |
WikiProject Water - Wikipedia
[edit]The article had interested me and spiked curiosity.
[edit]Originally I had came across this article and the information was interesting and how improving water quality is important. The overall impression was extremely meaningful, interesting, and non-biased. The article shares a baseline concept of what the project is informing through the category links provided under the alright caption images. The lead section was very well established and was able to broadly explain the topic at hand.

[edit]WikiProject Water demonstrates the unification of water use and effects of human water consumption. Last edited May 16th 2022, the article provides a easy tone through a balance of informative knowledge of their goals and of how you can help the efforts of improving the importance of the unification of water and humans. The project takes links to engage a better understanding of these two relationships between water supply, purification, and the act of purifying the water supply. Giving a description of each link, the Wikipedia article specifically states the importance of each section of links comprising of easily understandable categories from anywhere from aquatic species to habitats. The article promotes a healthy learning objective and recognization of basic narrower concepts of water. I see the article improving through the addition of specific information of how the project can provide more information like specifically on the links because they are currently too broad, even though the information listed was relevant to the topic at hand. I do feel that due to this, the article feels underdeveloped and could use more evidence or explanation of how specific subjects like habitats, humans, purification all correlate with the WikiProjects broad topic of water and the improvement of it.
