Evaluate Wikipedia exercise

What article are you evaluating?

Ceramic

Why did you choose it?

I have a huge interest in ceramics and Though it would be an easy enough page to look at but there was a lot of information and I was not inclined to read the entire thing and report on it for this practice.

Linked/cited the article above.

Lead Section:

There was kind of a lot of information to try and take in for this assignment. It has a great overview at the beginning going into depth on history, processes, and more. It’s hard to over detail a process like ceramics that could realistically be as abstract or complicated as possible.

Content:

There is every bit of content i could possibly think of for ceramics and more. It goes into its ability beyond art and function and talks about its use in mechanical situations and as a superconductor and many other things. The history of ceramics may be one of the longest parts though

Tone and Balance:

I think it’s hard to be “unfair” when talking about something like ceramics. There are facts about it more so than opinions. There aren’t a lot of opportunities for bias unless you’re talking about liking the art not what goes into it.

Sources:

It really needs some more citations, it even says so on the page. The whole materials spot, does not have the citations it needs. I would practically have to rewrite the whole page to do what work needs to be done.

Organization:

There is pretty good organization in the article. Each section smoothly transitions into the next and there are more topics that I would have thought of. I also did not notice any spelling or grammar errors from how much I had read.

Images:

The images are abundant and glorious. They seem to be pretty well captioned and include good detail/description.

Talk Page:

There was a whole lot of nothing on the talk page, there is a bit of work that needs to be done to the article realistically. Sources need to be added for sure.

Overall:

overall the article is pretty good. There is so much about ceramics discussed and there is just a need for a few more small things to be added and shout out whoever decided to go back into that to work on what needs to be done. It is very well developed but overall an unfinished article that has a bit of work left.
