Which article are you
Phagolysosome

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I choose this article because it has a lot of work that needs to be fixed.

Lead section
This article has an introductory sentence that clearly explains what a phagolysosome is. However, it throws a whole bunch of information out at once to the reader. I would expect it to introduce the cell and then in the following paragraph go into detail about what a phagolysosome is and what steps/ or process it went through to become a phagolysosome. There isn’t a flow. It mentions what a phagolysosome is, speaks about its process briefly, and then goes straight into phagolysosome functions. It does not include any information that shouldn't be there. Overall, the article can be written better to include more details.

Content
The article does have content related to the topic. The topic is not updated and it could use some editing. It mentions important topics but does not explain them in detail.

Sources and References

 * It has 8 references. Most are from reputable sources like the NIH. The sources are current and most of their links work. They talk about a few experiments that scientists did where they needed to use phagolysosomes.

Organization and writing quality
The article is clear, however, it is hard to read for a person who has never heard of a phagolysosome before. It can be broken down some more so that everyone can read the article and understand it, not just people who study cells and science. The paper can work on its sections just to make sure that the key points are being hit when explaining. The flow is all over the place. We want the paper to be as cohesive as possible.

Images and Media

 * The image that is here when a person clicks on the link is not an accurate representation of what a phagolysosome is and what it does. I will be finding a new image to better explain the cell.

Overall impressions
The article overall needs some work. It has the main points but is just underdeveloped.
