User:Aukwiri/Evaluate an Article

Which article are you evaluating?
In this assignment, I will be evaluating VTuber.

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article by going through the WikiProjects, as suggested by WikiEductaion, and finding a topic that piqued my interest. My preliminary of the article was that the major sections listed were rather vague, and the photos included do not seem like good representations of the topic.

Review by Aukwiri

 * The VTuber article is rather informative and provides a good overview and background on VTubing and how it came to be.
 * The lead section gives a brief and concise description of the topic and also gives an overview of the major sections discussed in the article.
 * Most of the content included in the article was relevant to the topic and up to date. The article maintains a neutral and informative tone without being biased to any specific viewpoints.
 * However, the content in the article in general felt a little sparse. Some additional sections that I would suggest adding could be the following:
 * More about what VTubers do and whether they do it for fun or as a career
 * How VTubing has been able to become such a popular phenomenon. What is so appealing about VTubing compared to other forms of online precenses
 * How the general public interacts/reacts with VTubers. The community that forms around VTubers either with other VTubers or with their audience.
 * Categories of content that VTubers produce, and inclusion of well known VTubers
 * Addionally, I would recommend them adding higher quality and more relevant images to the article because they would be able to provide readers with a more comprehensive view. The current images in the article aren't really placed in an aesthetically pleasing way either, which makes the article as a whole feel disorganized.
 * The references used did not seem that credible, mostly news articles from lesser known sources.
 * The linkes in the citations work, and the sources chosen do support the claims in the article and come from a diverse array of authors and publications. However, the sources themselves did not seem that credible because they are not from well known websites. However, the has not been that much scholarly research done on this topic, so it is not unreasonable to not have the best sources.
 * The sources may be a bit biased, cherrypicking specific events rather than giving a general overview of the topic.
 * The TalkPage
 * Because article is still a start-class article or low importance, there is not that much discussion happening inthe talk page. It is a part of the Anime and Manga, Internet, Video Games, and Youtube WikiProjects.
 * The Talk Page was mostly discussion about new sections that could be added to the article, which is good because the article definetly could use some more padding.
 * Overall, the article is a good start for someone who wants to know very loosely what a VTuber does. It provides a clear definition and background on the topic. However, there are a lot more nuiances that can be discussed more in detail, and the major sections are very general and can be more specific. I would say that the article still needs development, but because it is newer and low priority about a topic that isn't that well researched, it is a good start.
