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.)

It directly pertains to my research paper topic. It's a little limited in scope, and has a lot of dead links.

Lead Section:

This lead section is a bit lackluster. It's first sentence does allow the audience to understand what the Kirloskar Brothers corporation is. It also includes information about Rodelta Pumps International B.V. which doesn't come up in any other section.

Content:

The content is extremely high level, but doesn't have much specifics. Many of the content link have no base page, creating a lot of red text on the page. It's Research and Development page barely has anything and doesn't seem to fully utilize the content of its sources.

Tone and Balance:

- The tone and balance are pretty standard and don't seem to influence the audience.

Sources and References:

- Compared to other articles, there is a dearth of reesources. Much of the content comes from news articles and economic transactions between the Kirloskar brothers Limited and other companies.

Organization

- It's hard to comment on the organization, since there are only 2 sections. I would have liked to see a History and a Controversies section.

Image and Media:

The two pictures that appear are pretty pertinent to the conversation. One is a stamp sheet and another is the logo.

Talk Page Discussion

- Barren, Low-Importance on the WikiProject India, The article was last assessed in january 2015 (8 years ago)

Overall impressions:

- Through my research, I am certain I can add contributions to this page. It still needs a lot of work.
