Which article are you evaluating?
Crime in Tasmania

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I plan to be a police officer some day and I am interested in crime as well as different countries and how crime is prevalent and has impact in such a country. This is important because knowing crime rates and other statistics in other countries as well as how it is perceived and handled could apply to how our crime system works. My first impression of this article was that I was impressed, but also wanting more from it. The article was more particular than I believe it should have been, but the covered areas were extremely in depth and helpful. The chronological aspect was also a great method for such an article to exhibit the progression of the topics involved.

Evaluate the article
Everything used within the article is useful and on topic in regards to crime in Tasmania. All of the information is up to date and chronologically sorted. The article does not misrepresent any marginalized groups. The only improvement I would like to see is some more detail about certain areas involved within the topic itself like how much crime a certain group made up at certain times like the referenced banning of the motorcycle gangs. The article is extremely neutral and not swaying to any side or favoring a certain group. It is simply a compilation of statistics and their effects. All of the links and citations are working and helpful to the article. The sources cover a diverse array and come from multiple sources and areas. There is a talk page that covers some of the missed or underdeveloped areas I mentioned earlier. The article 'Crime in Tasmania' itself is C- Class. The article is labeled as an interest of WikiProjects. One question I have for this article is what are the makeups of the listed prisons like which one is the biggest or some other statistics regarding the given prisons.
