Which article are you evaluating?
National Archives and Records Administration

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose it because it is the predominant archival agency in the United States (and our class is about archives), it is important because it gives information about the government agency dealing with historical documents, and my initial impressions

Evaluate the article
This article is overall very strong in providing an overview and details about the NARA, their mission, and their execution of that mission in the government. All of the information is backed up with secondary source citations, especially that which might be considered opinionated or controversial. Images and lists of archivists help to enhance understanding of the history of this organization, and photos of the NARA buildings and some documents aid in visualizing the agency. The positioning of this article's section on the Trump administration is not intuitive and feels to be over magnified given its relative importance to everything else laid out and relative to the grand points of the article.
