Identity disorder

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I've chosen to evaluate this article as it appears to be a super short stub of a topic that could be talked quite a bit about. It's a super interesting topic and I think there is a lot of room for additional research to be done and added to the page. The page was last edited almost a year ago and this allows for many more new sources to be utilized.

Evaluate the article
Lead section: The article has an introductory sentence, but it is quick to veering from the purpose of the article. There is no brief description of what follows in the article/sections. The lead is not very concise. Lead sentence jumps around.

Content: The article's content is not very up to date, it was last edited July of 2023. There is plenty content missing. It's covering a very vast topic in around a hundred words.

Tone and balance: The article does take a mostly neutral tone.I'm not seeing anything under or overrepresented. There is no persuasion occurring, but there is a big lack of content.

Sources and references: Sources are not current. Most current source is from 2014. I've identified peer reviewed articles that could be used for further editing to the article. Links do work, but more recent sources are available for addition to the article.

Organization and writing quality: The article is clear, but lacking depth and motive. It's a single, brief paragraph. I noticed a minor grammatical error. The article is not broken down into sections as it's very short.

Images and media: There are no images included in the article. There are no exact images I can think of immediately that would be fitting for this topic, but certainly I could find images to boost the article quality.

Talk page discussion: The talk page for this article is empty. It's of low-importance interest to the Medicine WikiProject. I do believe with proper research it can become of higher interest to the Medicine WikiProject.I'm not seeing a rating for this article otherwise.

Overall impression: Overall, this is a very short, vague article covering identity disorders. For how common an occurrence identity disorders are nowadays, I believe this article has a lot of room for improvement and therefore is my number one prospect at this time. I'm unable to confidently identify strengths of this article. The article can be lengthened, broken down into many sections, cover more current research/peer-reviewed articles, and have talk page conversation going regarding it's further improvement. This is an underdeveloped article.
