I thought it would be interesting to evaluate this article to see if the content was purely factual. Grey's Anatomy is a medical drama, so I wanted to see if the author/authors of this article maintained a non-biased point of view and stuck to summarizing the show and cast members. Upon first glance, this article seems to meet the standards for a good wikipedia entry.

Everything in the article is relevant. The article discusses an overview of the show's plot, it provides a list of all the main characters, what season they were in, and if they were a main character or not. However, upon further inspection, I noticed that while some points in the article discuss all 19 seasons of the show, other areas do not discuss the later seasons as in depth as the earlier ones. Overall, there seems to be a focus on the earlier seasons of the show, so providing more information on the later seasons would be a way to improve the article. The article does remain neutral and unbiased. Additionally, there are many citations provided in the article (they come from a variety of sources), and they all appear to work. Under the talk page for the article, some people made the suggestion to update it based on new classifications and qualifications the show falls under. The article is of interest to a few Wiki Projects including Romance, Television, USA, and women. I believe there are a few missed opportunities in the article, as I mentioned above, but my overall assessment is that this article is a good representation of what a Wiki article should look like.

The Summer I Turned Pretty (TV series)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article to evaluate because my group recently chose it as our topic for a project. My preliminary impression is that this article was not as comprehensive as it could have been.

The article provides a synopsis of the show, an overview of the cast and characters, as well as a brief overview of every episode. The sources are current and relevant to the article, and there is a good amount of information on the production of the show. However, there are some quotes listed in the article that give the impression of an opinion, even though the article is supposed to be non-biased. Also, almost every piece of information provided in the article is lacking in complexity.

Female gaze

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose to evaluate this article because it relates to the topic my group chose for our project. My preliminary impression is that there is a wealth of information on the female gaze provided in the article. Moreover, there is information provided the history of the female gaze, theoretical implementations of it, and contemporary usage.

The article is neutral, however, there is an overwhelming amount of information provided on criticisms on the female gaze compared to the other information provided in the article. This gives the appearance that the author/authors were a bit biased toward a particular viewpoint. There are a wealth of reputable sources used in the article. However, given the prevalence of this topic, I am surprised there is not more information provided on the page.

The Summer I Turned Pretty (trilogy)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose to evaluate this article because it relates to the topic my group chose to do for a project. I thought it would be beneficial to review an article based on the entire trilogy rather than just reviewing an article on the two seasons of the show. My preliminary impression is that the article provides a basic overview of the trilogy.

The article lists the main themes of the trilogy, provides an overview of the cast and characters, and provides a very brief overview of the series. However, given the popularity of the trilogy, it is surprising that such limited information was provided on the page. However, of the information that is provided, it is neutral and not biased toward any particular viewpoint. Also, the article is concise, easy to read, and the sources are current.

Women in media

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose to review this article because it relates to the topic my group chose for our project. To be more precise, we are focusing on the women in The Summer I Turned Pretty, so having the information provided in this article in the back of my mind will prove to be helpful. My preliminary impression of the article is that it is very dense in information.
