Article Review
I have been digitally drawing for the past few years. The main program I have used is Autodesk SketchBook Pro, also known as SketchBook, which is a subscription based art application that recently turned free. I visited the Autodesk SketchBook Pro page on Wikipedia, and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: the tools, versions, and citations.

Tools
First of all, the overview of the page only contains a small paragraph describing what features SketchBook has. There is not much information for someone with no previous knowledge of the application to understand, especially when compared to another art program's wiki-page, such as Adobe Photoshop. Missing information that could be added to the wiki-page are about the tools that make Sketchbook unique, such as their perspective tools, copic library, and their radial menu people use to navigate.

Versions
While the wiki-page does a good job of keeping up with the new versions of SketchBook, there is still some information missing. The latest version mentions how Autodesk made all premium features free, but that could be elaborated on by mentioning how that even affects tablets and mobile devices instead of just the desktop version. More information could also be added about the beta, and how much has been added since then.

Summary
All in all, I'd say this page is good enough for someone to understand the basic gist of what Sketchbook is, but they would be better off looking at a different website for information, because the main part of the page doesn't even have a citation. Whether the information is true or not, the viewer would have no way of knowing how trustworthy it is. Even though more information could be added, what the page is really missing is references.

(sidenote: As part of this assignment, I have added a citation to information about the 2009 release of SketchBook.)
