Peer review[edit]

This is where you will complete your peer review exercise. Please use the following template to fill out your review.

General info[edit]

Lead[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Has the Lead been updated to reflect the new content added by your peer?
  • Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic?
  • Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections?
  • Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article?
  • Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed?

Lead evaluation[edit]

The lead does a great job introducing many of the important aspects of the site including setting up the content in the rest of the article. It is a very strong lead for giving readers an expectation of what the rest of the article entails, without containing too much extra information.

Content[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added relevant to the topic?
  • Is the content added up-to-date?
  • Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?

Content evaluation[edit]

The content presented in the article is up to date and relevant, but it could maybe use more information about how archaeologists have interpreted the lifestyle of the people based on the artifacts, if there is any of that information available.

Tone and Balance[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added neutral?
  • Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
  • Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
  • Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?

Tone and balance evaluation[edit]

The content is very objective and straight to the point about facts, and is neutral.

Sources and References[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
  • Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
  • Are the sources current?
  • Check a few links. Do they work?

Sources and references evaluation[edit]

All of the sources look reliable and are easy to check.

Organization[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read?
  • Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors?
  • Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?

Organization evaluation[edit]

The article is well organized, with each section having its own importance that relates back to the overall description of the site. From my breakthroughs I did not find any grammatical or spelling errors, and overall it was easy to read.

Images and Media[edit]

Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media

  • Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic?
  • Are images well-captioned?
  • Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations?
  • Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?

Images and media evaluation[edit]

There are no images, so maybe adding a map of the general location to give readers an idea of where the site is located, and maybe any pictures of the artifacts discovered if there are any.

For New Articles Only[edit]

If the draft you're reviewing is a new article, consider the following in addition to the above.

  • Does the article meet Wikipedia's Notability requirements - i.e. Is the article supported by 2-3 reliable secondary sources independent of the subject?
  • How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
  • Does the article follow the patterns of other similar articles - i.e. contain any necessary infoboxes, section headings, and any other features contained within similar articles?
  • Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable?

New Article Evaluation[edit]

Overall, the article does a great job as a new article because it includes many sources that are easy to track. One thing it could use is the addition of infoboxes

Overall impressions[edit]

Guiding questions:

  • Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete?
  • What are the strengths of the content added?
  • How can the content added be improved?

Overall evaluation[edit]

Overall it is a very strong article with a lot of good information to give readers a basic understanding of the site. One aspect that could improve the article would be talking about the culture of the people who lived at the site, but that information just might not be available. Other than that is a very well organized article that is easy to read.
