King & King

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it was very interesting to me in the sense that it is an inspiring message to be seen where a young prince pushes to live his life as he pleases despite outside pressure.

Evaluate the article
'''Lead Section: I think that a great lead is given as the preliminary information is laid out to provide a framework for what exactly readers are about to experience. The entire lead section provides a quick overview, even mentioning some of the opposition to a book like this.'''

Content: The content is balanced with mentions of the positive light this book has been put in as well as mentions of the negative reactions some have had to this book, including direct mentions of more socially conservative individuals who were not fond of this book.

Tone and Balance: It seems as though the writer of this Wikipedia article was very neutral and mentioned each opinion very matter-of-factly and in a very objective way. All opinions noted were said to be opinions of others, not the writer themselves.

Sources and References: I like how every statement is backed up immediately with an article. All the sources I looked at were fairly current, some being older, however. Some sources were ten plus years old. This stems from the fact that this article is tackling a long-standing issue that has not adequately been addressed in years past. Rather, these issues were ignored.

Organization: The writing is clearly organized and presents ideas in separate sections, including plot, support, and opposition.

Images: There is an image shown of the two princes kissing, which really encapsulates the main idea of this book and article on the whole. The one image is very well captioned, even citing the opposition that many had to this.

Talk Page: The talk page included some people making claims such as that this book is "garbage" which certainly showcases the point made by the writer about opposition to such books. I mention this in my TalkPage post.

Overall impressions: I believe this was very well-written, fairly unbiased, and has room for slight improvement. The one thing I am unsure of is whether or not the mention of social conservatives directly contributing to an increase in sales is too much of a broad statement without acknowledging that this may be the opinion of some, or many individuals. This may not necessarily be fact.
