Evaluate the article
Lead Section:

The first sentence of the lead section does exactly what it is supposed to do. It states the articles topic and identifies the characteristics of a Latin Cross. However, it does not discuss the sections below. It is fairly concise but could be slightly better.

Content:

I am not sure what all the aspects of a Latin Cross are apart from those related to architecture so I do not feel I am qualified to give feedback on the topic as a whole. The content that does relate to architecture lacks detail. It gives no examples of buildings using this plan nor does it explain the use of this plan outside of churches.

Tone and Balance:

This article has been written in an objective manner and the tone and balance reflect this.

Sources and References:

The sources used are seem to be credible and reliable. Only some of the clickable links bring you to an actual source or there is limited access to them.

Organization and Quality:

The organization and quality of the content is good. It is simply lacking in volume of content.

Images and Media:

The article provides adequate media for the content in the article. If the article were to be more in depth then more media would certainly be required.

Talk Page Discussion:

The Latin Cross is part of Christianity and Catholicism projects. It seems to be of low importance to both of these projects as it is rated either stub=class or low. The discussion around this topic seems primarily to be in reference to religion instead of architecture directly.

Overall Impression:

Overall the article is simply lacking content. It does a good job of providing a concise but brief overview of a few aspects of the Latin Cross. It could be greatly enhanced by adding more content and I would rate the overall status as underdeveloped.
