Which article are you evaluating?
Violeta Parra

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I am interested in her life and her music, as well as this article could benefit from having someone with a music background and training to take a look at it.

Evaluate the article
There are some uncited statements about her early life that could use a source.

Violeta was not born in poverty, althought I'll double check my sources, and none of my sources mention her father turning to alcoholism. Article also doesn't mention that Violeta Parra's father died of tuberculosis.

The first appearances could use a lot of citations and should be rephrased into "first performances" or "start of her musical career".

The struggle through adversity tone this article takes I think can be improved, while she wasn't rich, there is this feeling that this article is tyring to convince the reader that Violeta Parra "rose from poverty". I want to check this, but I also would like to change this tone to one more neutral.

Need more details on her trips to Europe, also including a reason as to why she went back to Europe.

The discussion of her music is lacking as it is the analysis of only two of her songs that use blog posts as a source. I also can find sources to give her music the summary it deserves rather than an analysis that has a lot of room for improvement.

The citation for "Gracias a la Vida" being a suicide note is not an academic source by any means and that is something I want to absolutely fix.

There are so many uncited statements or statements that just repeat what the article has said already, so reworking this would help with the flow of the article.
