Which article are you evaluating?
(Thirteen Reasons Why)

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
( I chose this article because the novel Thirteen Reasons Why is very controversial novel and movie that has been highly debated about its role with children and education. My preliminary impression of the article was that it was sufficient in the summary and character definitions, but there needed to be more information on the "Recent Developments" page to accurately inform about the extent to which this article gained publicity.)

Evaluate the article
( The lead does include an introductory sentence that concisely summarizes the novels topic and overall plot. The lead includes a brief description of the plot and the topics covered in the novel such as suicide and a quantitative figure about how controversial the novel is. The lead does not include information that is not present in the article. The lead perfectly balances being concise and not too overly detailed. Besides the recent developments, the content is up to date. The articles content is appropriate besides the fact that the article's topic is exclusive to the novel solely, not the addition and comparison of the TV show. The article does not address topics related to historically underrepresented populations nor topics. The article is neutral in its tone and does not attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another. All of the facts in the article are backed up by a reliable secondary source of information. The vast amount of sources are reputable, current, and the links do work. The article is concise and clear, therefore well-written. The article is free of grammatical and spelling errors. The article lays out the most important sections that reflect the major points of the topic. The article does not include images that enhance the understanding of the topic. However in doing so, it correctly disassociates the articles topic, the book, from the motion-picture. Some of the conversations that are going on in the talk page are editors well informed about the differences between the novel and motion-picture are frustrated with ignorant writers editing the order in which the tapes are transferred from one character to another. The article is apart of the WikiProject Novels. The article is rated Start-Class on the quality scale and High-Importance on the importance scale. The status of this article is that it is well-written and covers the topics in a highly qualified Wikipedia manner. The article can be improved by including more recent developments about how controversial the topic is and reactions to it. The article is well-developed, but lacks information in this section. )
