Evaluate the article
The lead section has an introductory sentence that clearly describes the article's topic. The lead does not include a brief description of the article's sections.

The article's content is relevant and up-to-date.

The tone is neutral as it contains contrasting opinions towards the subject. The reason why some people thought the novel as "scandalous" is underrepresented and may need more detailed description.

Some of the links in sources does not work. The majority of the references are from secondary and tertiary sources. Many of the sources are from blogs or new articles and may be biased, but the bias is not noted.

The article is clear when it talks about the plot, setting and the characters in the novel. The section about its impact is not clear. The article is well-organized. There are no grammatical or spelling errors.

The article includes images about the physical book and the main character. These help enhance the understanding of the topic. The images are well-captioned and adhere to the Wikipedia's copyright regulations.

The talk page talks about the insufficiency in information and citation of the page. The article is rated not very trustworthy due to the lack of citation from primary sources. The way the editors talk about the article is precise but some of the words used are not allowed in our class when we evaluate others' work.

The article has a general summary of the topic, and some of the sections give the reader basic information about the plot, characters and setting of the novel. The part of the article that describes the impact and deeper meaning of the novel needs improvement since it lacks primary sources and clear analysis of evidence. The article is underdeveloped.
