Article Evaluation: Their Eyes Were Watching God
The C-class ranked Wikipedia article on Their Eyes Were Watching God was very meticulous and detailed. Most sections written for the article are relevant and up to date. I think the Rediscovery sub section was a little unnecessary, as only one very small section pertained to Their Eyes Were Watching God. However, I actually really enjoyed the Historical Context section. At first glance it doesn’t seem relevant. But once you read it, it brings a different context to the story that I hadn’t even been exposed to before. Definitely necessary. The only thing the author could add is the brand new rendition (musical theater/stage production) of Their Eyes Were Watching God by the Firehouse Theatre in the Adaptation section.

Another thing to reconsider is the Reception section. It seems to have a lot of reviews. It is almost overwhelming. I would think an overall description of the reception (the good side and then the bad side) would have sufficed. And then for each side adding one or two specific reviews to support the description. Overall the article’s tone and context aligned with Wikipedia criteria. Even the sources that I checked worked just fine and coincided with the quote or piece of information. It was useful to just click on a word or subject I didn't know about within the article and instantly get information.

lastly the talk page didn’t hold flourishing conversation. There was just one person critiquing the article. If I am being completely honest they seem very unnecessarily harsh. The person after them put a link to block a user or report vandalism of a page. That’s how aggressive this person was being.
