article evaluation "child marriage"
Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? The sections of the article are very relevant to the topic, and thoroughly touch many aspects of child marriage throughout the world. Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? The article seems to lean heavily in the defense of children(mostly female) listed in the article, and though it may be simply because these are true statistics, the cases involving Asia and Africa seem to be particularly more detailed than those of other world regions. Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? i feel like maybe the article ignores male child marriages. this could be do to a lack of male child marriages but i wonder if there were cases left out. Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article? Yes, the links work, and yes the information in the sources support the claim. Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted? some of the links are connected to sources with titles that lean to an opinion of "right vs wrong" in regards to the topic. but for the most part the sources simply state facts which just so happen to be alot of negative things (as to be expected) Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? alot of the information is from last year (2016) as far as missing information, im sure there are proabably more child marriage cases from historical and modern situations in the united States that could've been added. Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic? their are conversations about the technicalities of the article, and lack of representation of certain regional issues. How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? it was part of an assignment in spring 2015 Jarradk98 (talk) 17:10, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
