Which article are you evaluating?
(Walt Disney Studios (division))

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article mainly because I grew up watching the Disney Channel and a lot of Disney movies so I thought I would look at the Walt Disney Studios article because I knew it it would be interesting to me. My first impression that there was a lot of information in the article and was a littler overwhelming.

Evaluate the article
The lead section was done extremely well. It addressed the history of the company and its connection to the Walt Disney Company and they linked it to another relevant pages that were mentioned in the lead section. The lead section is concise which is good because there is so much information associated with the topic. The content of the article is up to date which is good. There is a lot of history included in the article which I am not sure if it is relevant to the article overall. It does not appear to be missing any content either. I did notice the history of Walt Disney Studios begins at the 1980s, but it states that the company began in 1923, so that is a little confusing. Regarding the tone and balance of the article, the article is written from a neutral point of view but it is a hard topic to be biased on or have either a negative or positive opinion. Anyway I did not see that come through the article. The article is just displaying the information about the Walt Disney Studio.There is a reference for almost every sentence within the article so that was done extremely well. They could back up everything from another source which is good. The article is easy to read and understand. everything was clearly stated and there was not confusion when reading the article. I do like how they broke up the information, beginning with the history of the studio before going into leadership, and the divisions of the company. There is only four images in the whole article and they are just captioned as the four main headquarters for the company and the city where it is located is linked to the city's wikipedia article. A lot of the conversations in the Talk page were about what the article should be titled and what the company is actually called. there seems to be disagreements whether it is called "The Walt Disney Studios" or just "Walt Disney Studios". The article's overall status is C-Class. The article strengths include that is well written and all the information is cited or linked to another article. The article could be improved by maybe streamlining the history section, and maybe include the history from 1920s and up until the 1970s. I think that the article is really well-developed.
