Evaluate the article
As the article started, it did have an introductory sentence as it explained what antipsychotics were and what they were used for. The article does give a brief description of the major talking points within, such as white brain matter reduction, side-effects of such medication, etc. Within the lead section, there was no information that was not included in the article as well. The lead section is also concise, going over the major points within the article. Going over the article, it is up to date as many of the revisions are recent and the sources are dating back to 15 years. There is no content that is missing and does not belong within the article as well. With regards to wikipedia's equity gap, there is no note of underrepresented populations relating to antipsychotics. The article does go into a little bit of detail regarding the stigma behind using medications. After reading the article, I do think there is a bias towards any abuse, as much of the article at the end would talk about drug misuse/abuse. This can persuade the reader to feel like antipsychotics are a bad thing, as again much of the article at the end was giving abuse facts. Checking throughout the sources, they are up to date, and thorough. When clicking on the links they do work and are established sources. Reading throughout the article, it is well-written and concise. It does not contain any spelling or grammatical errors. The article is broken down into sections relaying whatever that section is about. Within the article, there are not much images/media. The ones that are available do refer to the point at hand. The images are well-captioned and due adhere to Wikipedia's regulations for images. I would say one of the images are visually appealing, as it is ad for Thorazine. The other images are just chemical structures of the medications. Within the talk conversations, they mainly point out the abuse/misuse fact, as many readers can feel that point can be misleading and not helpful at all. The article is part of 4 wikiprojects. The article's overall status is at a C class, and can be updated to help with the biases towards the abuse. Regardless it is an well put article with talking points regarding each thing about medications.
