Article Evaluation
I recently have developed an interest in Tim Burton and his films. In the spirit of the Halloween season, I chose to do this evaluation on a very spooky and fun character. Jack Skellington is most known as a patron spirit for Halloween in the movie ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’. I visited the Jack Skellington article on Wikipedia and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: the sections and if they are relevant, neutrality throughout the article, and it's choice of language.

Initially, the article has plenty of different sections all about Jack and where he is featured. The sections are titled, The Nightmare Before Christmas, In video games, Attractions, Cameos, Toys, Reception, and References. The first few sections in my opinion were greatly well written, although towards the end they do begin to fall out. There is no reason to add the reception section as it is very short and could have been added in the top character description. Besides that minor issue, the other sections are relevant to Jack and his character and do a great job mentioning all of his featured sightings.

Moving on, the authors do a great job of keeping neutrality throughout the whole article. Especially in Jack's description paragraphs, they made sure to describe his character without using biased language. An example could be, “His overall appearance is a skeleton dressed in a black pin-striped suit and a bow tie that strongly resembles a black bat.” His physical description was added without adding any biased commentary on his looks. This creates a form of professionalism when keeping the whole article very neutral. The writing continued in that neutral pattern throughout the whole article, creating a very well-written article.

Lastly, the article on Jack Skellington was descriptively written with its choice of language. Throughout the article, there are lots of descriptive languages that paint an image of who Jack Skellington is and what his character represents. An example of this could be,” Jack follows the formula of a tragic hero because he begins the story at a lofty position. Despite all his fame and talent, he yearns for another side of life.” With these two sentences, I get a bigger idea of who Jack is and what he represents throughout the film. The article doesn’t use any informal language keeping a very professional image throughout the end.

In conclusion, the Wikipedia article on Jack Skellington is one I recommend you all read if you are interested in learning more about Jack and his character. It is well written and has only relevant information about Jack and his film. It is also enjoyable to read and not confusing or sloppy in any way!

My Wikipedia activities
If I am active on Wikipedia in the future, I'll probably make changes to pages. I would like to make sure pages are reliable along with making sure they are grammatically correct. Although, my focus would mostly be on pages with topics I am passionate about. In the future, I would also like to create my own page about something I feel is important enough to share. Although, I currently have no ideas of what my first official page will be about. I hope in the near future I am able to come up with a decent idea form first page.
