Lead Section:

- the main problem with this wikipedia article is that is it talking about the journalist named Anna Westberg rather than the dancer (which is what category the article was putting her under).

- The lead does include an introductory sentence that describes the article's topic, but fails to mention the individual's most prominent accomplishments. The first sentence is vague.

- The lead does not include a brief description of the article's major sections because the article does not have any major sections. The lead is the only text on the Wikipedia page.

- The lead is concise, but probably misses several key pieces of information relating to the topic.

Content:

- the article's content is not that relevant to the topic, since Anna Westberg was a dancer and the lead introduces her only as a journalist (the other Anna Westberg).

- the content is not up to date, as but is also very limited.

- Once again, there is a lot of content missing on her, including information about her early life, most important works, and more.

- though this article does provide insight to the underrepresented group of women, its lack of pinpointing which Anna Westberg is the correct one for this article is concerning.

Tone and Balance:

- the article is neutral, though limited.

- Due to the lack of text and information in this article, there are not biases that seem to be present.

- no viewpoints are present, so none are over or underrepresented.

- the article has not attempt of persuasion, it simply tells the reader who Anna Westberg, the writer, was.

Sources and References:

- Though the sources do seem reliable, there are only four mentioned.

- most of the sources are written in Norwegian so it is very hard to understand if they are secondary or tertiary sources.

- Available literature on Anna Westberg will depend on if the article is meant for the dancer or the writer. Either way there are limited sources on these women since they are underrepresented.

- some of the sources are less reliable, as one of them is a wikipedia page in itself.

- it is difficult to tell how current these sources are given that they are in another language.

- the sources are not from a diverse spectrum of authors. Two out of the four sources are written by the same author, Anne Marit Godal, but she seems like a reliable woman (historically marginalized) Norwegian political scientist.

- the links to the sources do work.

- there are some potentially useful sources of either Anna Westberg the author or the dancer on google scholar, yet sources are very limited due to her being an underrepresented individual.

Organization and writing quality:

- the writing that is present in the article is clear and concise, but the structure of each sentence is repetitive.

- there are not large grammatical errors in the article. One sentence reads "She made her literary debut in 1978, with the novel Paradisets döttrar," which I do think has the ability to be rewritten and improved.

- the article is not organized. there are no sections for structure present in the article.

Images and Media:

- there are no images in the article that enhances the media.

- with no images, there are no images well-captioned.

- the lack of images disallow them to go against wiki regulations.

- the lack of images disallow them from being put out in an appealing way.

Talk Page Discussion:

- there are no discussions on the talk page of this article.

- the article is in "Wikiproject Biography/Arts and Entertainment" rated as stub class. It is also in "WikiProject Sweden" rated stub class, low-importance. The article is also in "Wikiproject women writers" rated subclass, mid-importance.

- the lack of conversation on this article has led to the confusion as to which Anna Westberg this page is dedicated to.

Overall Impressions:

- overall, this article needs a lot of work. Primarily, the writers need to determine which Anna Westberg this page is on. Since it is, so far, about the writer, it seems that the best option is to finish this page about her and then make another page about the dancer.

- the article's strength's include good grammar.

- the article can be improved by doing what is stated above. Furthermore, sections and further academic research must be added to provide more insight on this figure.

- this article is very poorly developed. It is the definition of stub class.

Which article are you evaluating?
Anna Westberg

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose the evaluate this article because it lacks information and can be very confusing for a reader. I found this article under the category of "dancers" in Wikipedia, but the information present is about another woman named Anna Westberg who is a writer. This article needs more structure, information, and clarity in regards to its subject. Furthermore, it lacks a lot of research for its references, even though it is understandable that sources may be limited due to women in the arts and sciences being a consistently underrated group. With more clarification, this article could be a really good reference point for someone trying to gain insight about Anna Westberg the writer or dancer (depending on which one this article is suppose to be about)!
