Which article are you evaluating?
Women's education in Saudi Arabia

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
It vaguely relates to the topic I have chosen for my wiki-project about the Iran-Saudi Arabia Cold War, but mainly because I am interested in female participation in society in particular parts of the Middle East. Especially considering the relevance of the broader topic of women in Saudi Arabia this article matters, but as I scanned the article briefly I could already tell it was short/simplistic, outdated and biased.

Evaluate the article
The first (introductory) paragraph does not even contain the word woman/en or female until the very last sentence, which sounds like it is trying to convince someone of their perspective. It is biased and does not address the major sections. The content is not only subjective but also out of date, this is visible when looking at the sources as well. Though there is some variety of sources, they are not necessarily good ones whereas there are many great secondary sources to be found on the topic and more recent/relevant articles; the talk page mentions this as well, especially the lack of objectivity. Organizationally, the article is relatively clear but the headings do not seem to make sense (example - heading "deaths"). The article overall is poorly developed and could do with a lot more research, especially more up-to-date information.
