Which article are you evaluating?Community economic development - Wikipedia
(Provide a link to the article here.)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article since it closely relates to my area of study. It matters because it shows the history of community economic development and how it is important in different countries.

(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

Evaluate the article
The introduction effectively defines Community Economic Development and its purpose. However, it could be enhanced by providing a brief overview of the topics the article will cover, which would help guide the reader's expectations. The content of the article is very relevant to the topic and clearly defines the topic. The articles content is neutral and does not persuade one to heavily lean on one side. All the concepts are equally represented and accurately done. However ,while the article provides a good overview of CED, it could delve deeper into certain topics. For example, it could discuss the challenges and criticisms of CED, or explore in more detail how CED initiatives are implemented. The article is backed up by a number of reliable resources although some may be a little outdated. However, the article's structure could be improved. It transitions from a general overview of CED to its history and then to its role in the US. A more logical flow might be to discuss the general concept, then its application in the US, and finally its history. The language is clear and understandable, but there are some long sentences that could be broken up to improve readability. The article does not contain any images. The talk page gives the article a very positive review on how the contents of the article are represented. In conclusion, the article provides a solid introduction to CED, but could be enhanced by addressing the points mentioned above.
