Evaluate the article
There is a notification at the top of the article explaining that there is an unidentified cause for concern about the article's ability to meet Wikipedia's standards. The first section 'Basic Description of Highland Dancing' uses unbiased language and is to my own knowledge historically accurate. The section 'Scottish and Irish Dancing' points out the clear differences between the two art forms which is necessary as the two are often confused to be the same. There are also appropriate citations in this section. In the 'History' section, instead of embedded citations the author included links to other wikipedia pages from where the information came. The 'Organizations' section is informative and accurate to my own knowledge, there is a mix between links and embedded citations in this section. In the 'Highland games and competitions' section there are only linked citations. Under 'Judging' there is nothing wrong with this section except there are no embedded or linked citations. Under 'Types of dancing' there is a lot of unbiased and seemingly accurate information and uses a mix between linked and embedded citations. Under 'Dress' there appears to be no issues. It seems as though all resources are properly cited under references, bibliography and external links. There is a diverse amount of resources, the images are very accurate, the writing is clear and concise. In the talk page there is mention of too many red links but that appears to be solved. The article was rated B class and rated of High importance. I found this article to be very informative of Highland dance and would give an outsider who is not apart of the community a very accurate and unbiased take on the subject.
