I choose the article on gender studies because it is a topic that is still new to a lot of people, and it is a topic I would like to have a greater understanding of. This topic has great importance it is constantly being brought up with politics which has a major impact on our society. At first glance this article has a strong introduction it seems to have a good breakdown on the major sections it does lack some citations for certain parts, overall, the article has potential and seems to only lack a few things.

throughout this article the lead section is concise, and the article's topic and major sections are clearly stated and easy to find. The information that is included in the lead is talked about in the article and content stays relevant all throughout and is up to date. I believe the content of how politics impact gender studies or the history of politics being involved in gender studies is missing from the article and including it will add more to the section on the history of gender studies. overall, the article is neutral and remains that way all throughout there are certain section throughout the article however, that lack proper citation and therefore does not have any citations besides certain statements the sources that are included are up to date and the links do work. The overall organization of the article is well done, and it is easy to follow along and makes it easier to go back and find things if needed. The article does include one image and it is within the Wikipedia's copyright regulations and it is an image that allows for enhancement to the article's topic. The talk section rates this article as a class- C and is part of three Wikprojects one conversation that was mentioned in this section is that there should be a section on how this topic has controversies and how this has shaped and affected society. overall, this article has potential it has great organization, and the layout is well done. There needs to be updated citations on those that do not already have one and an inclusion on the controversies that gender studies have to help aid the history portion of this articles section.
