General info[edit] Whose work are you reviewing? (provide username) Za'NettaS Link to draft you're reviewing: User:Za'NettaS/Pearl Cleage Lead[edit] Guiding questions:

Has the Lead been updated to reflect the new content added by your peer? On the original article, it needs to mention what you are adding. So, mention briefly her inspirations. Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic? Yes (og article) Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections? Yes (og article) Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article? No (og article) Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed? It seems a little too short in the og article, but the article itself is pretty short. Lead evaluation[edit] Content[edit] Guiding questions:

Is the content added relevant to the topic? Yes Is the content added up-to-date? Yesd Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong? No Content evaluation[edit] Tone and Balance[edit] Guiding questions:

Is the content added neutral? "she must write about the struggle for black people to be free and how she not feel oppressed by this idea" I would break this sentence up, and explain what she means when she says she does not feel oppressed by the idea Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? No Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Maybe flesh out more what you mean about her inspirations, citing specific books that inspired her. Be a little more specific to add content. And, also, in the og article you might be able to add more information to existing sections. Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another? No Tone and balance evaluation[edit] Sources and References[edit] Guiding questions:

Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information? Yes. However, you need to cite it not in the text, but through the citation tool. Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic? Yes, they seem to. Are the sources current? Yes Check a few links. Do they work? There are no links Sources and references evaluation[edit] Organization[edit] Guiding questions:

Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read? Ye, but some of the sentences could be fleshed out or reorganized to be a little more clear. Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors? No Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic? You are adding an influences section, but I do not know where in the article, so I cannot really answer this question Organization evaluation[edit] Images and Media[edit] Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media

Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic? N/A Are images well-captioned? N/A Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations? N/A Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way? N/A note: you could add a picture of her to the article

Images and media evaluation[edit] 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? N/A How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject? N/A 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? N/A Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable? N/A 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, it would strengthen the article by citing influences and adding more about her life. What are the strengths of the content added? It fleshes out her involvement in Black Arts and her literary influences How can the content added be improved? You could add more to the article in general, since there is not much in the og article
