Which article are you evaluating?
Humorism

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I decided to evaluate this article because I am currently in a course learning about the history of modern medicine. We started out learning about the four humors and the humoral system to explain how health was valued centuries ago. My first thought of the article is that it was well composed. The history page has a lot of edits, or changes recorded. It also had a lot of information on the TalkPage, meaning the information has been looked at a lot of times.

Beginning with the lead section, this article is well formatted. The lead sentence gives multiple names for the humoral system and briefly explains what it does and implies how this topic may be important. There are sections clearly labeled and broken down, making it easy to navigate the page without being overwhelmed, or confused about where to find the information that you are looking for. This article is presented in a neutral view and explains how the humoral system and its entities have been looked at throughout the years. The history does not seem to be biased towards one group, or against another. There are a lot of secondary sources linked, as well as other similar pages to look at. All the information pulled from those sources are cited within the article and easily found at the bottom. This article only has one photo, which adds to the understanding of the topic. It also has two charts that related to the content in the article. However, the addition of these images do not make the article cluttered or unprofessional. Overall, this article is well-developed and contains all the needed information to fully grasp the humoral system.
