![]() | 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. |
Which article are you evaluating?
[edit]Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
[edit]I decided to choose this article because it relates to whaI work onrk in my research. It matters in terms of understanding the important ecological factors of interactions between animals as predators and preys and how fear plays role in this interaction. It is well-writen article, but some parts require a broader explanation, especially the Landscape of Fear part.
Evaluate the article
[edit]The lead provides a clear definition of the term and its ecological relevance but is too brief. It lacks a summary of key examples or broader implications, which would help orient readers unfamiliar with the concept. The article covers foundational ideas and notable examples like Yellowstone, but lacks substance. The tone is mostly neutral and academic. There are credible academic sources cited, but some, like the 1999 paper is not cited. It is overall well-writen, but some images would make it even better. The talk page is simple, can be discussed a bit more.
