Evaluate the article
-The Lead section of this article has introductory sentences that clearly indicate the topic, but these contents are from the same reference.

-In the content part, it only includes controversies that are in 2016. In my opinion, the content part should contain more detailed things, such as the background, the effectiveness or some examples of the Act.

-This article only shows the controversy brought about by the Act, and does not explain the positive value of the Act, which is unbalanced. The structure of the article is not conducive to the public's correct understanding of the meaning of the Act.

-The major sources of the information are from websites, just like news, which are not peer-reviewed.

-The article is easy to understand, but the entire content organization is not very complete and lacks many important parts. Only one picture is used to mark the letters representing different levels of endangerment.

-The structure and content of the article are not perfect. More details need to be added, such as the rules in the Act, as well as cases that can highlight the importance of the bill.
