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.) I followed all the Wiki links to find a prehistoric animal, mantis shrimp are pretty cool and there was a lot of information on the topic.

The introductory paragraph was well written, the first sentence gave a background on the name and gave the period it was alive during. In general, the opening paragraph gave good context for the rest of the paper. Everything looks to be cited properly and uses neutral language. The topic itself had few pictures to choose from but the ones provided were appropriate. I enjoyed the cladogram provided for added depth. Overall this article fit Wikipedia guidelines but some of the wording came across as filler. The talk page did not give any interesting insights.
