FIFA 21

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I have chosen this article since I play soccer and am very passionate about the sport, but also love video games at the same time so it is a perfect mix. My preliminary impression of it was that it looked fairly well made and organized.

Evaluate the article
(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:

The lead section is simple and straight to the point and describes what the game is about, what platforms the game is available on, and which company made it. All of the information in the lead is then reciprocated in the article itself.

Content:

Overall, the content itself is relevant and up to date with the EA Gate being a scandal that happened very recently. However, there are contents gaps that I found that aren't portrayed in the article itself. If we look at the features sub section it only talks about ultimate team, career mode, and volta which are in the game but they are missing 2 other features. The other 2 features are the kick off mode and pro clubs. And it is funny cause the Fifa 20 wikipedia page has pro clubs but Fifa 21 does not. They could also describe more thoroughly the different editions that were sold to people on release that provided different features to people who payed more.

Tone and Balance:

After reading the article I couldn't really see anything that would be considered bias as the facts were just presented to you and displayed to you make your own interpretations with.

Images and Media:

The article only has the picture of the cover and is well documented, so technically it could be possible to add some pictures to the page that would liven up and provide visual references for the readers.

Sources and References:

Most of the sources I checked were from secondary sources other than some information from the Fifa 21 website, but one of the sources I check wasn't reliable and I wasn't even able to access the information from the website itself.

Talk Page and Discussion:

The Talk Page only has has one Conversation regarding how EA should ban the in game Loot box system which is being considered as gambling in government around the world.

Overall Impressions:

Overall, the article is well made and provides a solid base for what the game is and information regarding the game itself. There is still room for improvement like with may other Wikipedia articles.
