Evaluate the article
The first sentence of the lead section encompasses the topic of the article, and the rest of the paragraph does a good job summarizing it. The article includes all of the information in the lead section, it was also concise and easy to follow. The article's content was relevant to the topic and successfully explained many different aspects about sea slugs, many of which I had not known and were very interesting. It was written in a neutral, unbiased and unpersuasive tone that covered many aspects of this process. The author uses a healthy mix of current and older knowledge and data but a smaller range of referenced sources, most likely due to the lack of research and information about these animals. The images were helpful to improving understanding of what different types of sea slugs looked like. All images appealed to copyright regulations and were visually appealing. There were some conversations about making it a disambiguation (dab) page, which I am not really sure what that means even after reading about it. The article is listed as a level-5 vital article in Biology and it is a part of WikiProjects. It gave a short overview of the physiology of the sea slug but it wished it had gone more in depth on that front. It was also very short and very underdeveloped. I would recommend more research be done on physiology, behavior, habitat, diet, etc. and be reported here, but it was an interesting and concise read!
