Which article are you evaluating?
Small interfering RNA

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I am interested in learning how to stop the production of undesired proteins in the cell. siRNA is one of the three techniques is used to cleave protein coding mRNA, preventing translation which ultimately helps in gene silencing.

(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.)

Lead Section
Those readers who want a brief overview of most important things of how the siRNA works and its mechanism will find enough information in the lead section.

Content
There is direct correlation between this article and the topic. It contains detailed history about the discovery of RNA interference. It also include information regarding how siRNA is produced from dsRNA, mechanism of Risc complex and the process of mRNA cleavage which results in gene silencing.

Tone and balance
This article is neutrally expressed although there are some points which are overrepresented which might be difficult to understand.

Images and media
The image of production process of siRNA and its mechanism is included in the article. Which helps in proper understanding of the topic.

All the source and references of this article are up to date. Most citation of references are from previously published research and review articles and those articles are highly informative. One can rely on the citations and references as they are to point

Overall impression
The overall impression of this article is its easy to understand. A reader can easily understand all the detailed necessary information regarding gene silencing, siRNA mechanism along with its few challenges of binding to non specific sites.
