 | 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?
Killing of Vincent Chin
Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I have never heard of this incident until this topic has been brought up into my Asian-American studies. Surprisingly, this incident were never brought up in any of the American education topics. This is a huge topic for Asian-awareness, and a huge topic of how the unfairness among minorities in the United States has been hidden intentionally. Therefore, I chose this article to evaluate.
Evaluate the article
The killing of Vincent Chin brought a lot of attention back in the late nineties. However, it was not broad enough to drew more attention or even make an influence to Asian awareness. Vincent Chin was killed before his weddings. His family was devastated. The two white males who killed him has never gotten any serious charges from this incident. This news then demonstrates how corrupted the US court system is when it comes to racial discrimination.
