Which article are you evaluating?
The Baker Museum

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I'm very interested in art museums. In high school, I had to put on a "mini" art museum for one of my Visual Arts class. One of the influencing museums I used was actually the Baker Museum. This museum has a few exhibits relative to 3D which is something that sparked my interest when it was time for me to do my own museum as some of my exhibits were 3D also.

Evaluate the article
Lead Section: The first few sentences give a very detailed description of what the museum is, i.e., former names, location, when it opened, what the building specs. are, what kind of works are kept there, etc.

Content: I feel as if the content of the article is relevant because it talks about all the different collections kept at the museum as well as what artists are displayed throughout.

Tone and Balance: I believe the article to be from a neutral point of view. There is no opinion shown throughout the article, there are only facts. I believe the article is very "to the point" in terms of information. I think there could be some more information made available in terms of the collections. Maybe a few of the pieces could be talked about, or maybe one major artwork of that section listed.

Sources and References: Most of the sources used are sources from 2019 and 2020. They're all current and up to date. All the links work and are relevant to the topic as they discuss ongoing events at the museum and give links to some of the artworks as well.

Organization and Writing Quality: I think the article is well written. I did not spot any grammar or spelling errors. The article is broken down into sections containing collections, programming, building, notes, and then external links. I think there could be a section describing maybe all of the major artworks in the museum and maybe some more facts regarding some of the pieces or artists.

Images and Media: This article has no images or media of any kind of than a map with the location of the Baker Museum. I believe it could use some photos of the exhibits or maybe an artist or two in order to add content to the page.

Talk Page: The talk page actually has a suggestion similar to mine; adding photos! There are two main discussions going on in the talk section. One is with the WikiProject Florida and the other is with the WikiProject Museums.

Overall Impressions: I think the article's overall status is okay, but there are some areas for improvement. For one, I think there should be more information describing the collections besides just what artists are featured. Secondly, I think that there should be some photos of the artwork or artists and a description of the piece/artist. I think it would add color to the page and make it seem more factual and offer further information as to what kind of artwork is displayed there.
