Which article are you evaluating?
(Provide a link to the article here.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunset_Cafe

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.) I chose this article because I always found nightclubs interesting because so much is going on in one place. Musicians have played, became famous, lived, and died at nightclubs and I find the histories very interesting. I choose this one because it reminded me of the Sunset Strip in California which is highlighted in the movie "The Dirt" which is about the history of the band Motley Crue.

'''Everything written in the article is related to the topic. It includes dates, people, a place, and events. I found nothing distracting in the article. No information is out of date. Though the article is informative, certain points can be expanded upon. For example the article states, "The building received Chicago Landmark status on September 9, 1998." This could be expanded upon by explaining why it gained its landmark status instead of just saying it has the status. The article also notes The Sunset Cafe was a safe haven for segregation. This can also be expanded by explaining why it was such a safe haven, who made it a safe haven, and what happened to the people who acted out of order. The lead sentence or topic sentence of the article correctly and appropriately describes what the article is going to talk about. The article only contains one picture when a better effort can be made to include more media. The article is organized well. The article also has a good balance. The tone of the article is neutral, there's no obvious biases towards a particular aspect mentioned in the article.'''
