Which article are you evaluating?
APA Style

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I enjoy learning about different writing styles. I also chose this article because, although it has some important information, it could have a lot more details and rules. Ultimately, adding more about APA style will make it easier for the public to access APA style rules and information. My primary impression of the article was that it was short, and it lacked a lot of detail I assumed it would have.

Evaluate the article
I will be evaluating the Wikipedia article "APA Style." APA style has major sections including an introduction into APA style, and major sections on two of the most recent versions of the APA style book, "APA Publication Manual." The content in the article is up to date and relevant, though there is much about APA style that is missing from the article. This article could include more information on history and specific APA style errors, and contains a lot of elements on two previous style guides that aren't as useful to the article. References are current, reliable, and their links work. Only one image is present in the article, so that could definitely be improved. It is c-class and part of the psychology WikiProjects. Talk page specifically talks about a need for more previous styles and specific examples like in the mla article.

Overall, I think this article is in need of a lot of work that could be done relatively timely.
