This article stood out to me because my generation is tasked with saving the world, and I was curious to read about how we can continue to grow our society in a sustainable way.

Evaluate the article
Lead section successfully and succinctly introduced the topic of the article, though it did not directly state the major sections that would follow.

All content is relevant to the topic. It is up to date and includes references from the year 2022, amongst many others. The content, by nature, supports the poor and marginalized groups because sustainable development is about helping the world's poor, even claiming those in poverty to be of the highest priority for assistance.

The article is neutral. It simply explains what sustainable development is, and offers information about why it is supported and why it is critiqued, but makes no argument for either.

The article includes over 100 references, from the United Nations to the New York Times, and many more. The links work and come from a diversity of sources.

The various topics read in a logical sequence, building off the previous sections. The article is well written and contains no obvious spelling/grammatical errors.

The article includes various infographics and pictures that offer additional information relevant to the topic. The images are placed near the relevant information they are used to support.

Some of the conversations in the talk section suggest this article should be included in the larger topic of sustainability because sustainable development is a method of achieving sustainability. The article is rated C-class, and is listed as a level-4 vital article to society, and of interest to multiple projects, but not listed as one yet.

Overall I found this article to be successful. It explains the concept accurately, and explains both sides of conflicting viewpoints, without making an argument for either. I suppose the article could be improved by continuously updating based on new information as this topic is continuously evolving, as such I found it to be well-developed so far because it clearly explains the topic in a way that can be easily understood, without going into too much detail on, while providing links to reliable sources for interested readers to learn more on their own.
