- Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you? '''Everything in the article that I read is relevant to the article topic. The article flows in chronological order in terms of the notable discoveries made in the different ages. Then it gets more in depth about specific artifacts. ''' - Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position? The article is very neutral since it is just stating facts about artifacts from different time periods.

- Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Contemporary artifacts are heavily underrepresented.

- Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article? The links that I clicked on worked and showed relevant information as presented in the article.

- Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted? Yes, it seems as though all the facts are cited at the end of each sentence.

- Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added? Contemporary artifacts (1947 and beyond) need to be updated.

- Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic? '''The page was nominated for deletion in August 2017. It seems that there is problematic categorizations of Early artifacts.'''

- How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects? '''The article is an article of interest to several WikiProjects. I don't think its rated/ I don't know how to find rating.'''

- How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class? We've talked a lot more about history rather than just the artifacts.
