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:
'''Perhaps you can edit the lead because it is currently very short, only consisting of two sentences. According to the "guiding questions", it seems like the lad should include a brief description of the article's major sections. Maybe try adding introductory sentences to the lead, especially with a focus on the sections that you are adding to (i.e. introduce developing countries, developed countries in the lead).'''

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
'''For some of your content, I believe it's possible to be more specific in what you are arguing. Specifically, under the Kenya region that you're editing, you state- "However, it is shown that in order for women in Kenya to become entrepreneurs they must first make milestones in gender equality. As most women also fall disproportionately into lower incomes, they also will have to find ways to gain capital and for many, escape the poverty trap."'''

'''I believe it would be useful here to say what you mean by "milestones in gender equality", and to add statistics on exactly how many women fall into lower incomes. Also, "poverty trap" is a term that we've learned in GPP 115 but the common public doesn't know it, so perhaps elaborate on what that is and how women in Kenya have to escape it.'''

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
'''I think it's difficult to maintain a fully "neutral" tone when talking about gender, especially because it is known that women in business have been discriminated against (especially in developing countries) and this therefore warrants words such as "gender empowerment", inequality, etc. However, I think there can be a more neutral tone put in areas. For example, in your "Kenya" section of developing countries, perhaps try to re-word "..as today's society presents less obstacles than ever before..". Possibly try to reword this in a way that sounds less biased, or perhaps be more specific in what you mean by "today's society" and "obstacles".'''

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
All three sources are working, are relatively current (within the last decade), and are reliable sources of information that accurately reflect the available literature.

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
'''The content is well-written, concise, clear, and easy to read. There are no evident grammatical or spelling errors, and the content is well-organized.'''

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
'''Content has made the article more complete by adding more information into the "Kenya" section for developing countries. I believe the strengths of the content added include statistics and facts on exactly how Kenya has come to be a case study/example of a developing country that has shown growth for women in business. Overall, I believe the content that can be improved by being more specific in the arguments that you're making (see content evaluation) and by ensuring that the tone is neutral. Also, it would be useful to edit the lead section, because it is extremely lacking right now.'''
