User:DWhite18/Paul Rose (Politician)/Gesanes Peer Review

Peer review
This is where you will complete your peer review exercise. Please use the following template to fill out your review.

General info

 * Whose work are you reviewing? (provide username) DWhite 18
 * Link to draft you're reviewing: Paul Rose (American politician)

Lead
Guiding questions:


 * Has the Lead been updated to reflect the new content added by your peer?
 * Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic?
 * Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections?
 * Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article?
 * Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed?

Lead evaluation:
The lead has been updated to reflect the new content added by the user. The lead contains neither an introductory sentence nor a brief description of the article's major sections, but it contains information that is not included in the body of the article such as the fact that Rose is a Christian conservative and a Republican and the counties that are under the jurisdiction of the 32nd district. This information could have been more smoothly integrated into the body of the article. Additionally, the lead is not overly detailed, but it contains grammar mistakes.

Content
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added relevant to the topic?
 * Is the content added up-to-date?
 * Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?

Content evaluation
The content added is relevant to the topic and up-to-date but not very thorough. As Rose began his tenured political career in 2019, no election information or summaries of scorecards are missing.

Tone and Balance
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added neutral?
 * Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?

Tone and balance evaluation
The content is neutral, and there are no claims that appear heavily biased or viewpoints that are under- or overrepresented because most of the article's information is presented in tables with no summarizing paragraphs.

Sources and References
Guiding questions:


 * Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
 * Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
 * Are the sources current?
 * Check a few links. Do they work?

Sources and references evaluation
The user drew information from Rose's campaign website, which may include biased information with regard to contending issues of the campaign and the candidate's personal life. The sources are current, and all links provided work; however, the user could have accrued more current and validating information about Rose's political activity and personal history through newspapers.

Organization
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read?
 * Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors?
 * Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?

Organization evaluation
Due to its format, the information is clearly and concisely presented, but it contains some grammatical errors: the second phrase in the lead is not a complete sentence, and a comma is missing in the sentence under the "Background" section. The article is organized into relevant sections, but the content of the different sections is not very thorough.

Images and Media
Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media


 * Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic?
 * Are images well-captioned?
 * Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations?
 * Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?

Images and media evaluation
The article does not contain an image of Paul Rose, but as no ideas need to be graphically construed, a picture may not be necessary to enhance a reader's understanding of the a politician's political activity and qualifications and might even bias the reader.

For New Articles Only
If the draft you're reviewing is a new article, consider the following in addition to the above.


 * Does the article meet Wikipedia's Notability requirements - i.e. Is the article supported by 2-3 reliable secondary sources independent of the subject?
 * How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
 * Does the article follow the patterns of other similar articles - i.e. contain any necessary infoboxes, section headings, and any other features contained within similar articles?
 * Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable?

New Article Evaluation
The content of the article is supported by three sources that are independent of the subject, but the user also references one primary source that was authored by the subject of the article. The article does not reference any newspaper articles, which would have provided additional information on Rose's background and community involvement. The article conforms to the format of similar articles on state politicians; it contains headings on the politician's personal background, election information, and political and community membership, but lacks a picture of the politician.

Overall impressions
Guiding questions:


 * Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete?
 * What are the strengths of the content added?
 * How can the content added be improved?

Overall evaluation
The article contains important information on its subject, but could be extended. The tables into which most of the information is formatted contribute to a neutral tone, but much of the information listed in these tables could be elaborated upon and clarified in supporting paragraphs or through links. For example, the user could link organizations the politician is affiliated with with existing articles on Wikipedia or provide a brief description of the organization.
