Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I have chosen this article to evaluate because my favorite invertebrate is Christmas Tree Worms (Spirobranchus giganteus) and the article appeared very interesting. At first glance, the article is very thorough with a lot of interesting details. However, it is a bit short and there is not as much information on the page as there is on other articles.

The lead section is very brief with only a short description of Christmas Tree worms, it needs many more details to give readers more information in the first paragraph. The article uses 7 sources, there are many other sources on this species available but are not used. The content that is on the page is relevant to the topic and is helpful to better understand the species, but there is potential for much more information to be included. There is a section related to their ecology that is interesting and is one of the more developed sections within the page, but the section of range and distribution is lacking details and is very short. All facts are backed by relevant, credible sources that do not appear to be biased. The article is very easy to read and organizes the information in a manner that helps with understanding the various parts of Christmas Tree worms. The information is presented as unbiased and in a scientific manner which is appropriate for the wikipedia page. The pictures included are engaging and can easily spark a readers' interest. The talk page includes multiple comments on small details that help make the article easier to understand and fix small errors in the writing. Overall, the article contained good information related to the species but there is much more information available that could be included and used to expand the article with.
