Evaluate the article
The lead is good, providing a complete overview of its origins, common names (in English and Chinese), taxonomy, basics about its biology, and its status as an invasive plant and host for other invasive species. The content of the whole article is comprehensive, although the history section leaves a bit to be desired. It also dives into the cultural associations of the tree over time. The tone is balanced and informative, without a sense of persuasion. Most paragraphs have more than one source, and the vast majority have at least one. All the links I clicked worked. The article is well-written and concise, without any apparent spelling or grammar mistakes. It has plenty of images, and all of them are pertinent, distinct, and well-labeled. Most of the talk page is dedicated to formatting changes and source updates, with a significant section dedicated to the proper meaning of "wishing your Ailanthus and daylily are strong and happy". Overall, the article is strong and well-written, with little that needs to nothing that needs to be fixed or added.
