New Article Evaluation

Overall impressions

Guiding questions:

  • Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete? Yes
  • What are the strengths of the content added? The content added is included in multiple sections, adding additional support for the existing Wiki Article. It included Taylor's "How We Get Free", which was not originally in the article.
  • How can the content added be improved? Adding a few additional resources to (Taylor, 2017) would continue to strengthen the article, although it is already lengthy and has multiple references. Continuing to find additional up to date articles or resources to support the existing text would strengthen this article.

Overall evaluation

Overall, great job with this article! It was quite a feat considering it was lengthy to begin with. You did a nice job of incorporating Taylor 2017 throughout the various sections already in existence, and adding a new paragraph to the "developing a statement" section. My only recommendation would be to find a few additional supporting articles or resources to bolster what you've included by adding "How We Get Free" to provide further support for this information. But overall, very nice work on this. It is evident that you spent a quality amount of time and thought on this!
