Human services

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
There is alot of misunderstanding when it comes to what human services are for and how they can actually benefit everyone. With all the different and difficult topics we discuss, many people struggle to cope and/or understand these different societal issues. My hope when selecting this article was to see something in there about difficulties and there are ways to get help with there struggles.

Evaluate the article
Right in the beginning the article starts off strongly with a definition and good understanding of the term Human Resources. The lead section is very concise and detailed. When looking at the content everything in the article is very relevant. The article however is skittle out of date from my view considering parts date back to the 1930s. I’m not going to say there is content missing but this is a topic of which can always be added too or elaborated on. I say this because there are newer and bigger issues that happen daily and with this there should be elaboration on the more current issues and the resources available for that, not just past events. With all this being said this article does cover quite a bit of historical aspects dealing with Human Resources. This article does come off very neutral. This is good because it shows that no matter what side someone is on with an issue there can be discussion if there is a struggle or issue it can be further addressed as needed. There is a lot of discussion pertaining to the educational aspect but I can’t say it is overly talked about because this is when Human Resources are needed the most and when people learn about all the different things within society that could lead to needing these resources. There are several sources and other articles that are reliable and linked into this article. Within the few I opened and looked through they had very through articles, they were very relevant to this article on Human Resources, and all the links did work except one which was also pointed out in the talk page. This article is well written and well organized. This article does not have images to help with a better understand but it’s very detailed where you can create a picture in your mind of what is being discussed. This is not a lot discussed in the talk page nor a lot of participation. There is only one historical remark on the article as well and a statement on a link not working. The article was rates start class and high importance as well as being park of a wikiproject. My overall impression on this article was strong and well developed. I enjoyed reading it and being able to view how someone understands how Human Resources work within society for all different situations and people.
