n/a

There is not a lead, as she is editing a section within the article.

Content
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added relevant to the topic?
 * yes
 * Is the content added up-to-date?
 * yes
 * Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?
 * No, though I would add more on climate to match the length of the other sections.

Tone and Balance
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added neutral?
 * Yes, nice, academic language
 * Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * No apparent bias.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * Not necessarily, just think about lengthening the climate section to complement the drought section.
 * Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?
 * no

Sources and References
Guiding questions:


 * Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
 * Yes
 * Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
 * Yes; as you continue to work on it I would add a few more to strengthen it.
 * Are the sources current?
 * Yes
 * Check a few links. Do they work?
 * Yes

Organization
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read?
 * Yes, easy to follow
 * Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors?
 * Go through and proofread; I found a few grammatical errors.
 * Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?
 * Yes, follows structure of current article. Suggestion: the paragraph that begins with "rainfall in Lesotho" would fit better under the specific climate paragraph than the summary of the geography section.

n/a did not add any


 * Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic?
 * Are images well-captioned?

 * Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?

For New Articles Only
If the draft you're reviewing is a new article, consider the following in addition to the above.


 * Does the article meet Wikipedia's Notability requirements - i.e. Is the article supported by 2-3 reliable secondary sources independent of the subject?
 * How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
 * Does the article follow the patterns of other similar articles - i.e. contain any necessary infoboxes, section headings, and any other features contained within similar articles?
 * Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable?

Overall impressions
Guiding questions:


 * Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete?
 * Yes, the additional information was very helpful in rounding out the article.
 * What are the strengths of the content added?
 * Provided good information that the article had only briefly touched on. Provides the reader with a more clear understanding of Lesotho's physical elements.
 * How can the content added be improved?
 * Keep on adding as you find new information that should be included! Also, be sure to read back through it to catch grammar mistakes (I can show you what I'm talking about if you need me to).

Overall evaluation
Very good start! Keep on fine tuning it and it will be a great addition to the article!
