Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

Land Rehabilitation is topic of discussion is our class that we discuss often and I wanted to see what information Wikipedia provided on the topic. Giving the article a glance it is on the smaller side what he majority of the article focusing on mining. There are only three sections within the article and two of them cover mining.

I think this article is in the beginning stages, there is little information there on the actual topic. In the Lead section there is not much discussing the topic it is about two sentences long and not very thorough. There is a note thought at the top of the page saying that this article does need improvement, with better inline citations and resources. The content is heavily focused on mining rehabilitation and not structured in a very efficient manner. I don not think there needs to be two sections focusing on mining when the articles purpose is land rehabilitation. The overall tone is neutral and, but the article does class clarity and is not concise. The mining section specifically is long winded and presents the information more like a journal rather than an article, i would not say the average person who doesn't know about land degradation wouldn't necessarily be able to follow. Cleaning up the article was talked about in the talk section, it was discussed on the appropriate words to use as many land rehabilitation can be said many different ways. This is article is said to be a c class article, but I do feel more information needs to be added on farming and forestry for the article to be labeled c class. Mining, forestry, and farming were al mentioned in the first paragraph and no other context on the two was added.
