Westies

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I've chosen to evaluate this article because it was one of three choices we had for articles to evaluate in class. Between the choices though, I chose this one because I've never researched anything about the Irish-american mafia, and was curious to see how it differentiates to other organizations.

Evaluate the article
Lead Section - The lead section of the article was concise yet informative. They kept it short and to the point, basically just stating what the article is about and a little bit of background on the Westies. The content within the article is enlightening and intriguing. I learned information about this topic that I was completely unaware of before. It discusses the history and origin of the mob organization, along with factors that influenced it such as wars between Ireland and italy. The tone remains neutral throughout the article, offering insightful information on the Westies and their reign of terror in New York City. The citations the authors utilized to write this wikipedia page are seemingly reliable and accurate. I reviewed a couple of them and they were just as honest and insightful as the page was. I like the writing format the author used, they're grammar was correct and they remained well-spoken throughout.
