Which article are you evaluating?
Marion Böker

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because I took German as my foreign language in high school, so I thought reading about Marion Böker was a way to learn more about the culture. This article is important as it informs readers about the efforts Böker has contributed to bringing awareness towards Women's Rights, including her active presence in IAW, the German women's council, and UN WOMEN Germany. I thought the article was good at providing general information, but was not thorough enough to be useful for a research project. The article listed the groups Marion Böker participated in, but did not elaborate on what exactly she did or how she became interested in activism.

Evaluate the article
Although the lead of the article is only one sentence, it meets all the requirements; it does not mention any information that is not present in the article and provides a concise overview of the read. The information included in the article is relevant to the topic and very up to date, considering the sources were published in 2021 and 2022, however the article could increase it's quantity of information about Marion Böker's background and a more in-depth description of her work. The read is neutral and does not portray the content or subject of the article in a positive of negative light. The article is strictly informative, rather than biased or persuasive. In terms of the sources, all of the links work and reflect what is mentioned in this Wiki article. Even so, these secondary sources do not provide a lot of information on the topic and would not be very resourceful; that said, better sources were available for the author to chose from. The article's organization is very clear and the content is grammatically correct, but the sentence structure is very simple which presents the information in a familiar rather than formal and educated manner. There are no images included in this article, which makes it difficult for readers to put a face to the name. The talk page does not include a rating and explains how the article is apart of WikiProject Women and WikiProject Biography. The article is unarguably underdeveloped. The information it currently contains does a good job of listing what activism roles Marion Böker has held, but lacks general information about her and her life. ~
