Evaluation of Athletic taping

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I have done a lot of work in this area in high school.

Evaluate the article
The article was very straightforward with its content. It got right down to the topic explaining what Ankle taping is and how to apply it. A lot of the article's references are from the early 2000's. So, most of these references are outdated and not upgraded with new information. There are not any noticeable gaps in the article. This article could improve the references and use information published within the past five years.

Evaluating tone

The article is very neutral; it shows the advantages and disadvantages of ankle taping. The article also shows how to apply the taping and goes as far as showing different types of tape used. The viewpoints of the article cover a lot of information about ankle taping.

Evaluating Sources

The links associated with the article work when you click on them. The sources are not as reliable due to the outdated information. Since most of these references are from the early 2000's, they are not current on new medical changes. They have 18 courses covering all the different information for automatic taping.

Talk Page

There were some conversations going on on the talk page. Both of the people creating the conversation were within the past 5 years. It looked like both students were a part of a wiki project. I think the article is more serious when talking about content, while we who are making edits are more laid back and take in all information.
