Tone and Balance edit

Guiding questions:

  • Is the content added neutral?
    • Yes, although under reception I could see possible critique of a lack of neutrality possibly
  • Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
    • Point 2 under the subtopic "Reception" presents a bias that doesn't really have stats or evidence to back it up
  • Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
    • No
  • Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?
    • I don't think so - it is very factual

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 impressions edit

Guiding questions:

  • Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete?
    • Yes, I really like the information that was added. It adds to my overall understanding of the company, which the original page really lacks.
  • What are the strengths of the content added?
    • The background section and information about the founders is very useful. Also looking at unique subtopics that make the reader understand the company better is incredibly useful and smart (i.e. reception, anti-terrorism, etc)
  • How can the content added be improved?
    • I think it looks very good as is.
