Katori Hall

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I am interested in Katori as a subject and as one of the most prominent writers to come from Memphis and to continue to write about Memphis.

Evaluate the article
The lead is too short and sticks to a single sentence. It does not overview the larger article.

The content has gaps. It does not adequately cover her new project and it ignores many of the plays she has written and produced in the last five years.

The tone and balance of the article is strong. For me, the lack of balance is because her entry is so short compared to many of her peers and other white playwrights of her age and also for comparison many lesser actors and directors have much more detailed pages.

The article is well organized except for the missing information. It is easy to read. I think there is an opportunity to arrange the sections in something more than career. Her work can be divided into short work, television work, etc. There is an opportunity to talk about her fellowships and residences.

I also think, given how much she writes about Memphis, that there could be more information about Memphis.

There is one old picture of Katori. I think it could be updated.

There is minimal conversation on the talk page. I'm not sure anyone is in charge of this page.

Some of the sources are out of date and incorrect.

Overall I think this page could be much stronger if there were more current information and more information. I'd like to do some research and fix this.
