Lead
The first paragraph in the Lead section does an excellent job of clearly and concisely describing the article's topic. The second paragraph guides readers through an overview of the subsections found further down in the article, focused on current challenges with digital inheritance. The last sentence in the second paragraph could benefit from a citation from a larger reporting agency such as the Census or Pew Research center as it references current societal norms that not every reader may relate to. This citation is included after a cited statistic in the Overview section, but I would check Wiki's guidelines if repeated information included in the Lead and other subsections needs to be repeatedly cited. The third paragraph comes off a bit persuasive, stating why digital inheritance is important. This could easily be reworded to something along the lines of "Personal and societal benefits include..." which would directly tie it to one of the sub headings in the article. If the author chooses to explain why something is important, it should reference one or more authoritative sources. Otherwise it may read as the author's personal view.

Content
All content seems to be relevant to this topic. See the "Sources and References" comments below on timeliness and possible missing content related to international perceptions/publications on this topic.

Under the section Data heir when discussing the formation of companies to provide consumers with digital inheritance services, consider referencing a recent article that summarizes this business landscape or referencing a few of the providers currently offering those services.

In the introductory paragraph for Obstacles to digital inheritance, consider modifying the "catch up" language to something more professional such as "Estate laws and privacy laws do not fully address challenges presented by..."

Tone and Balance
The majority of content is presented as neutral other than a sentence in the Lead section as noted above. There is no instance of heavy bias and each sub topic within Digital inheritance is sufficiently represented.

Sources and References
There is only one instance of a missing citation the author may currently be searching for. Roughly half of the cited sources are from scholarly publications and any mention of social media policies link to current URLs. All the new content is backed up by reliable secondary sources of information. All sources appear to be relevant and within the past 2 decades. Only a handful of sources are from the last 5 years so I'd suggest spending more time finding recent scholarly articles on the subject as well as considering a more internationally informed sources. A quick search returned these sources which may be helpful.

 * This Lang et al. article goes into the inheritance of culture characterized by digital components. I'm not sure if this falls into the scope of the author's intended scope of revisions for this article.

Organization
This article draft is well written and easy to read. I appreciate the additional terms with their own Wiki pages linked out. The organization of each main section and sub sections is logical and easy to follow. The Practicalities section is a hold over from the original article. If that section is within the scope of what the author intends to edit, they might consider referencing some of the processes we have learned throughout our 7920 course and consider organizing it in a different way. For example, taking each of the activities identified in the DCC Curation Lifecycle Model and determining which of those activities are worth mentioning in an article about digital inheritance.

Images and Media
Based on the existing article and additional/edited content provided in this article draft, I do not think there is a need where images or media would enhance the content.

Overall Impressions
This draft reads as a near final draft with sufficient content under each subsection. These revisions and additions the author has added will improve the quality of this article, especially the discussion of obstacles and benefits of digital inheritance. The reorganization of the article will also improve readers experience whether they are skimming this topic or read the entire article.
