Evaluate the drafted changes
Lead

The article has a thorough yet concise lead. The introduction highlights the major points of the article but does not go into excessive detail.

Content

The content is well-organized. The sections are able to encapsulate the book.

The plot summary is details the plot well. I did not notice any major plot holes.

The format for the Characters section is clear.

The section on structure was supported with reliable evidence.

The historical background section provides strong context for the plot of the novel. Though short, the section addresses the necessary information.

I recommend adding a subtopic under Reception on critical acclaim. Reviews from authoritative sources may develop the section more and provide the reader with a better understand of community response to the book. Citing reliable sources will also develop the reference list, which could boost the article's rating.

Tone and Balance

The entry presents a neutral tone and abides by Wikipedia policy.

Sources and References

All factual content is backed up by a reliable secondary source of information. The information accurately reflects the content presented in the sources. The references provide thorough and factual information. While some sources have opinionated statements, they provide solid, factual reasoning for their assertions. The editors of the novel's Wikipedia entry represent the factual information. The sources adequately reflect the available literature on the novel. All sources are current. All links seem to work.

The references come from a variety of source types. The Wikipedia editors use websites, blogs, and journals to provide a well-rounded assessment of the novel. The sources are also written by a diverse array of authors. The use of French sources compliments the original language of the novel's publication.

Organization

Content is mostly clear, concise, and easy to read.

In the Plot Summary section, I would recommend simplifying sentence structure, as some paragraphs become a little confusing.

Listing the characters makes quick reference easy. You may want to further organize the notes about each character. There were grammatical errors that made reading confusing.

In "Structure", some parts become repetitive (such as the conversation on syntax), so I suggest reorganizing the information to flow more smoothly. There is quality information in this section, so there is not a need to delete the content! Just make the content more accessible.

In the Awards subtopic, create a list of the awards that is more easily editable. Rather than stating that the novel has received two awards, you may want to introduce the list as "Awards include the following:", or something to that effect. If the novel receives any future accolades, editors will be able to more quickly update the page.

Images and Media

The article contains images and media that develop the content of the article. All media seems to comply with Wikipedia policy. Images are laid out in a visually appealing way.

The Contents text box is organized properly and all links to later section of the article work.

The Information text box provides critical information. Did the translators work together to complete the English version? If not, the names should be separated in new lines. "Languages" should include English, since the Wikipedia entry will be covering the English translation. Would a subgenre of Historical Fiction support this information box? In addition, you may want to itemize the lists of publishers and awards for clarity.

The caption provides strong alternate text to the image. As many may not know what the Interpol'art festival is, the Wikipedia page on it should be linked, if one exists.

Perhaps the cover art could be added as an additional image, though it is not necessary.

For New Articles Only

The article exceeds Wikipedia's notability requirements. The article currently features nine reliable references. This exhaustive list demonstrates all perspectives thoroughly.

This entry follows a standard Wikipedia article format. The article contains links to other articles, but it is presently indeterminable if other articles link to this page.

Overall Impressions

The article is very through. It provides all necessary information about the book. The format is well organized, though some improvements could be made. The references support the article with reliable, accurate, and current information. The use of images and media develop the article. Minimal spelling and grammatical errors were found.
