Feminism in Egypt

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose do evaluate this article for numerous reasons. First and foremost being Egyptian I am sad to say that I am oblivious when it comes to feminism in Egypt therefore I chose this article to learn more about the subject. I also chose this subject because my first lecture that I attended after enrolling in this class was about the feminism movement in Egypt showing numerous women who played a pivotal role in improving the role of women in Egypt. With the men in Egypt being toxic with their masculinity it is important that these women not only remind themselves but also remind other women in Egypt that they matter and that they have their own rights. Through my first skim of the article it is evident that this article has does a phenomenal job of covering a lot of what happened with this movement in history.

Evaluate the article
Starting with the lead section, I think this section although decent could do a significantly better job at introducing the topic as a whole. Also in this section there is a sentence that the reader can't really tell if it is a proven fact or just an opinion of the author. Despite these flaws the introduction sentence does a very good job at explaining the topic as a whole. As for the content of the article, I would have to say that the author/s did a really good job at including a lot of important information without making the content feel too dense in any particular topic. This article is primarily concerned with the history of the movement therefore there was little to no bias attributed to this article but there were some claims that were included that seemed more like opinions than facts. Where this article lacks the most is the sources and citations. As you can see numerous editors have asked the author to cite the source of where they got their information, which occurs too many times for the article to seem credible. Once again shifting to the pros of this article, the authors did an excellent job at making this paper flow well and easy to read for the audience. Although this article includes no pictures, the article does a good job at explaining the topic to the audience and making it understandable. The talk page consists of mainly people calling out the author for his lack of citations and people requesting that more information be added to the page about certain icons in this revolution. Overall this article was pretty good only lacking in its lack of citations and lead section.
