Evaluate the article
Everything in the article is relevant to the topic and there was a clear format. The first sentence in the leading paragraph does provide a strong but limited overview. There is a content board describing the sections discussed in the article. I am curious why only specific regions are mentioned; for example, the United States description is missing. The wikilink to "bachelor's degree" provided more information about more regions such as multiple parts of Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, etc. The page was last edited on January 23, 2021, so it is up to date. I noticed that there are only two references which does not tell me that the article is strong, however, there is only a small amount of information provided. The second source is dated back from 2010, so the sources are outdated. The first sources takes you to a page that can no longer be found. The first paragraph could provide more information such as what a bachelors of arts can get someone in life and why it is necessary. It could also list some majors that are required under the bachelor of art requirements. The article does not appear biased. There are a lot of underrepresented locations, it is only noticeable because certain specified areas are mentioned while other broader areas are left out. Some information in the article is wrong; for example, Canada and Brazil's education system. There are no images presented. Most of the talk page discussions have issues with the material presented, and lack there of. Overall the page seems weak and there is a lot of room for improvement. Some improvements may be adding more information that is up to date and citing these new sources. Also including more information about Bachelor's of Art degrees in more areas, and what exactly it does for a person.
