IThe article I have chosen today is on Katori Hall a famous Memphis playwright

Lead Section

- The introductory sentence is very clear and concise.

- It is missing some key information about her education and her awards that could be very helpful to a reader who just needs a quick overview.

- All of the information in the lead is present in the article.

- The lead is concise but is missing some details that could be very helpful.

Content

- The article's content is very relevant to the topic, but the education section is a bit lacking.

- The career section is very up to date, but the awards section is not, and does not even list her nominations.

- Some of her awards and nominations are missing from the Awards section and that could be very helpful to a reader.

Tone and Balance

- This article is written from a neutral point of view.

- Nothing in the article is over biased toward a particular position

- Her academic achievements are not in the education section, and they should be they are severely underrepresented.

- Minority viewpoints are described as such.

- No where in the article does it try to persuade the reader one way or another.

Sources and References

- All facts are backed up by a reliable source.

- The sources are VERY thorough and explain the topic very well.

- The earliest the sources go back is 2009 so I would say they are very current.

- The sources are written by a diverse spectrum of authors which is very helpful.

- The links that are used are the bet links out there. There could definitely be some more, but what they have so far is good.

- The links do work!!

Organization and Writing Quality

- The article is very well written and very easy to read because it is so concise.

- There are no grammatical errors.

- The article is well organized but some pieces of information could be added to multiple sections.

Images and Media

- The image attached to the article does help enhance the article.

- There is no caption on the image, that should be fixed.

- The image does adhere to the copyright regulations.

- The images are very visually appealing.

Talk Page Discussion

- There is only one comment currently and it is someone who wishes to add something to differentiate her work.

- It is rated C- class of low importance.

- You have to be careful of the information being use because it is a living person, and incorrect information will be removed.

Overall Impressions

- The overall status of the article is very good it is just missing some details that could really put it over the top.

- The information in the article is very well sourced and concise, which makes it very easy to read.

- To improve it could add some information in sections to other sections and add more to the lead section.

- TO make the article more complete I would address the weaknesses mentioned above and add to the lead section.
