David Suzuki

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I have chosen this article to evaluate because David Suzuki is a decorated individual, with a long and successful career. For these reasons, it is important that his page is well-researched. My initial impression of the page was that it is an exemplary Wikipedia page, and displays everything that is essential for a Wikipedia page about a household name such as Suzuki.

Evaluate the article
This article includes a great introductory sentence that provides the reader with some insight to Suzuki’s life. The lead includes a description of each major section of the page as well, providing a condensed overview. The lead section does not include any information that is not also listed in the article, making it a reliable page. While the lead is detailed, it does not provide unnecessary details, making it a good lead section for this article.

The content of this page is relevant to the topic, and up-to-date with Suzuki’s life and career. There does not appear to be significant amounts of missing content, and none of the content that is present in the page is out of place. The article does not appear to cover an equity gap or address topics related to underrepresented populations or topics.

This article is written from a neutral point of view, with no claims that seem to be biased in favour or against a specific topic. No viewpoints appear to be over or underrepresented, and the article does not attempt to persuade the reader to favour one opinion over the other.

The facts that have been presented in this article have all been backed up through reliable secondary sources. The sources used are relevant to the article and thorough in their research on the topic, with a variety of authors present within these articles. There are many sources present and while the links work, there could be a few more peer-reviewed articles in place of other sites.

This page is very well-written, being easy for anyone to read and divulge information from. There are no obvious spelling errors present within this article, and it is very well-organised, with sections that are neatly arranged to condense information into a clear format.

This article includes images that have been well-captioned and improve the reader’s understanding of Suzuki, his life, and his achievements. All of the images adhere to Wikipedia’s copyright regulations, and they have been presented across the article in a way that is visually appealing to the reader.

There have been few conversations within this article’s Talk page, with the most recent discussion focused on the quality and content of some external links. This article is rated as a B-Class, and the page is rated as Mid-importance by WikiProject Canada, indicating that improving it further is of some importance, but it is not top priority.

Overall, this article has minimal room for improvement, as it is already a solid article. The page provides a substantial amount of information about Suzuki and offers many sources to back up this information. The article can be improved in the future by looking for more recent information on Suzuki from reliable, peer-reviewed sources. In the end, I think that the article is well-developed and could be considered complete with minimal additions in the future.
