Article Evaluation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomsk

'''Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?''' All the information presented was relevant to the topic, but I found the climate section to be an interruption because of its graph being in the middle of the article.

'''Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?''' The article has a section discussing the government official election process, and has a neutral approach to its description and statements about the current seated officials. In the culture section, there is an acknowledgement towards a terrorist attack on a theater, which keeps a factual position.

Are there viewpoints that are over-represented, or underrepresented? I could not find any viewpoints that were over or under represented.

'''Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?''' The citations did link to the sites that were used, but some of the data was cited from legal documents which were not attached. I could not read the source sites accurately due to them being in Russian.

'''Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?''' The only information I could not find a citation for was about the terrorist attack on the theater, which I would consider acceptable since the event occurred in 1905 and there might not be reliable newspaper clippings/ anecdotal remembrances.

'''Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?''' There is no section that discusses the economy and the economic situation of the city.

'''Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?''' The conversations on the talk page were around different formatting disagreements that seem to have been resolved. The other talk topics were around different information points in the article to see if there was any sources for certain statements/ historical descriptions.

'''How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?''' The article is rated as a level 5 geographical article, and is part of the Soviet Union, Russia, human geography and city WikiProjects.
