Content
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added relevant to the topic?
 * Yes, the added content is related to Rajagopalachari, the man who coined the term, "License Raj"
 * Is the content added up-to-date?
 * Yes
 * Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?
 * No content that doesn't belong, History and Current Status seem as vital sections to this page. Some more content could be added regarding the specific businesses which were able to thrive as a result of the License Raj.

Tone and Balance
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added neutral?
 * Yes
 * Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * The overall tone throughout the page does not seem neutral, however, the additions made by Edward to the History section are encyclopedic and clearly less biased.
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * An anti-regulation/anti-government sentiment is present throughout the page. However, given the economic reforms in 1991 strived to reduce this, it seems understandable.
 * Does the content added attempt to persuade the reader in favor of one position or away from another?
 * No

Sources and References
Guiding questions:


 * Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
 * Yes three sources were cited in the paragraph written in the history section and one in the current status section.
 * Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
 * Yes
 * Are the sources current?
 * Yes the added sources range from 1993 - 2018
 * Check a few links. Do they work?
 * Yes

Organization
Guiding questions:


 * Is the content added well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read?
 * The sentence: "A growing belief arose in India in the late 80's and early 90's that in fact rather than what Nehru believed that the Licence Raj was an important of Indian economic success, it was doing the opposite." in the current status section could be reformulated to be a bit easier to read, but besides that everything is concise and clear.
 * Does the content added have any grammatical or spelling errors?
 * No
 * Is the content added well-organized - i.e. broken down into sections that reflect the major points of the topic?
 * Yes

Images and Media
Guiding questions: If your peer added images or media


 * Does the article include images that enhance understanding of the topic?
 * Are images well-captioned?
 * Do all images adhere to Wikipedia's copyright regulations?
 * Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?

For New Articles Only
If the draft you're reviewing is a new article, consider the following in addition to the above.


 * Does the article meet Wikipedia's Notability requirements - i.e. Is the article supported by 2-3 reliable secondary sources independent of the subject?
 * How exhaustive is the list of sources? Does it accurately represent all available literature on the subject?
 * Does the article follow the patterns of other similar articles - i.e. contain any necessary infoboxes, section headings, and any other features contained within similar articles?
 * Does the article link to other articles so it is more discoverable?

Overall impressions
Guiding questions:


 * Has the content added improved the overall quality of the article - i.e. Is the article more complete?
 * Yes, adding more information on the context on the License Raj and Nehru's motivation behind it gives the reader a more complete view of the topic.
 * What are the strengths of the content added?
 * This page is rather sparse, thus, giving the reader more information relating to any of the topic adds to the overall article. These additions, specifically, the lack of economy post-decolonization and mentioning LDCs give the reader a more holistic view of the topic.
 * How can the content added be improved?
 * Changing the sentence I mentioned above, but everything else looks great.
