Fetal tissue implant

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
This article talks about experimental therapy that can be used as a treatment for Parkinson's disease. I chose it because Parkinson's treatment is becoming more prominent as it used to be an untreatable disease. This treatment matters because not enough research is devoted in Parkinson's yet lots of people have to live with this disease. My preliminary impression of fetal tissue implant was related to stem cell research. Previously learning about stem cells taken from fetus can be used for therapeutics in an adults life and the fetal tissue implant relates closely to my Preliminary impression.

Evaluate the article
The lead section was direct, clearly defining what the fetal tissue implant is and detailing it's uses. the lead is concise and details what fetal tissue implants are, their uses and the societal stigmas surrounded by them

In terms of content, all of the content present in this article is relevant to fetal cell theapy and seems to be up to date. the last edit was October 21, 2021 but I would've liked to have seen some more content on more recent research done on fetal cell therapy.

The article presents a neutral tone and a good balance between scientific information and societal effects of this treatment.

There is only one source listed and its a New York Times article from 1992. Possibly a peer review journal can be used about fetal cell therapy.

The article is well written and well organized into topics varying from uses of therapy to the ethical concerns of utilizing fetal cells from aborted babies.

No images are included.

There is no talk page discussion amongst wiki authors.

Overall impressions: the article is very well written but lacking many citations to back the facts included in the article. The only source listed is a 1992 NYT article of a success story from fetal tissue repair. The article could be developed more by adding more credible sources to give it more credibility. Overall the topic is summarized well.
