'Currently my peers have not begun editing their article; however, it is okay. I can provide feedback on what can be edited based on the original article.'

Lead:
The lead includes an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes that the article is about the Galapagos Penguins. The lead does include a brief description of the article's major sections. The article can make it more apparent how urbanization is having an effect on the Galapagos Penguins. The lead does not include information that is not present in the article. The lead does get detailed with information that can be discussed in other sections of the article. The lead is detailed; it can be more straight to the point, however, it is a great start and lead to begin working on.

Content:
The content added is relevant to the topic as the information gives a description of the Galapagos Penguins, their distribution, ecology and behavior, breeding, population, and conservation (El Nino and Climate Change, Disease, and Other). The contend seems up-to-date; the references show two more recent peer-reviewed articles that contains information that could have been included in the article. The content is missing a more direct relationship on how urbanization is affecting Galapagos Penguins. My peers can possible make it more clear on how urbanization plays in and affect the Galapagos Penguins. The article does not seem to deal with one of the Wikipedia's equity gaps.

Tone and Balance:
The content seems to be neutral; however, there are certain sentences that seem to include a stance of what may be affecting the Galapagos Penguins. I would suggest that as my peers begin to edit, to change those sentences to be more informative. There does not seem to be any claims that appear to be heavily biased towards a particular position. There is one portion that may be underrepresented; my peers can work on including more information on urbanization and its affect on the Galapagos Penguins and their habitat that in turn affects their population. The article does not work to persuade the reader in face of one position or another.

Sources and References:
The content accurately reflects the cited sources as I viewed all the 27 sources. The sources reflect the available literature on the topic; the sources are somewhat current. My peers can definitely find peer-reviewed articles that are from 2020-2023. There are a few sources that are not very current. The sources seem to be written by diverse authors. As I began researching sources, I had a hard time finding articles; however there are peer-reviewed journals on El Nino and its affect on the Galapagos Penguins. There are also other articles that discuss various factors affecting the Galapagos Penguins. For example, I included an article that is not peer-review but it may be a good article for my peers to read when editing their article.

Organization:
The content is written well; it is clear and easy to read. The content does not seem to have any grammatical or spelling errors. The content is organized, however, as I read, I can see that it is sometimes repetitive from various subheadings. Overall, the sections do reflect the major points of the topic. My peers can read over the sections to ensure it is not repetitive.

Images and Media:
The article includes images that enhance understanding of the topic. The images are captioned well; the images seem to adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations. The images are laid out in an appealing way. My peers can definitely add more images and rearrange the images.

Overall Impressions:
My peers have not begun editing their article from what I see from their sandbox; however, they have a good starting article. They can definitely improve this article and make it great; I can't wait to view their final article during their presentation. Category:Reference
