Which article are you evaluating?
I am evaluating the article Chondrogenesis.

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because chondrogenesis is a biological process that I am not familiar with, and I wanted to learn more about it. The article was also on the C-Class list, and it appears to not be as thorough as other biological topics.

Evaluate the article
The lead section is very brief, only consisting of one sentence. It defines chondrogenesis, but it does not offer any further elaboration on the topic. It also does not include an overview of each section of the article or an overview of the concept in general. A reader would not be able to obtain any type of summary of the topic from this lead section.

The overall content of the article is relevant to the topic and up-to-date. However, it is missing some citations throughout. Additionally, the Sulfation section is very brief and could be expanded upon. The existing citations are relatively current and are from a variety of different sources and authors, however the article could benefit from additional, newer sources,

The article is written from a neutral point of view and only provides fact without an attempt to persuade the audience. The article only includes one image that is not particularly helpful to understanding the concepts. Additional images to supplement the information written in the article would allow the reader to better understand that concepts discussed. The article is organized into clear sections and is well written using scientific language. There are no grammatical or spelling errors.

There is one recent post on the talk page that cites a specific statement from the article, and the user is suggesting a change to the wording and asking for the input of other authors. The page is also part of WikiProject Biology and WikiProject Anatomy.

Overall, this article provides a great overview of chondrogenesis, with the exception of the lead section. It does a great job of breaking down the different processes involved in chondrogenesis, all the way down to the molecular level. The article could definitely benefit from additional information, citations, and images to further comprehension and reliability of the page, and a more intensive summary should be written for the lead section.
