Review of Taylor Swift Wikipage
Strengths
- The lead section is very understandable and provides a nice overview of her musical career without getting too specific.
- The page breaks down the information into various sections with a clear structure. For instance, the biography is broken down into various stages of her life and the various genres or albums she has written. The biography displays a 1989-2003: Early Life, 2004-2008: Career beginnings and Taylor Swift, 2008-2010: Fearless and acting, 2010-2014: Speak Now and "Red", 2014-Present: 1989.
- The article also remains fairly neutral by providing more than one perspective in its section title "public image", where it discusses the various social opinions and scandals revolving around her social image.
- The page also has a through list of citations and references make its information more credible.
Weaknesses
- The page has a very short award and achievements section in comparison to the other parts of the article, and could have been embellished more.
- There is also a whole politics section of the page, which seems a little too long and irrelevant to her career as whole.
The page was created on June 4th, 2016. At its beginning, the page only had two sentences about her career. There was a big increase in the amount of activity on the page around October 2016, which is when her album Taylor Swift was released later in that month. Since then, the page has featured a range of authors who contributed to her page.
The talk page does not have much discussion. There are two topics that have been discussed. One topic is of which is a discussion of which infobox image is better to you use, and the second is about remove the section discussing Taylor not drinking alcohol, since such information was not correct. Thus, the talk page seems to be used as an area to discuss various edits to the page and tone is professional, but has not been used as frequently as one may expect for the amount of changes and information added since 2006. The people on the discussion/talk page can also be seen making edits on the page.
I edited the page by fixing a few grammatical errors.
