Evaluate the article
The last sentence of the lead section is discussing taxonomic history, which is then discussed in detail the California giant salamander section. That addition is too detailed as it is not even about this specific salamander, but rather its close relatives. The article seems balanced and not noticeably lacking anything content wise. In the California giant salamander section there is not a citation. The article as a whole is concise, clear, and easy to read for the laymen interested in this salamander.
