Which article are you evaluating?
Talk:Maternal wall from the WikiProject Gender Studies

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
This C-class quality article pertains to issues of both gender and poverty, which are necessities given the course content. The topic is important, yet the article currently lacks the components that would make it stronger, which is why I want to evaluate and potentially select it as my final topic.

Evaluate the article

 * Lead section: The introductory sentence is clear and describes the topic well, but only when combined with the second sentence. There is no description of the major sections of the article and it could be improved by adding this, as well as edits for clarity.
 * Content: All of the content is relevant and current. Could benefit from a section about what the maternal wall looks like, as well as a section on gender bias in general. It does address an underrepresented population, since the focus is on women. However, there is not discussion of the impact on women of color or LGBtQIA folks.
 * Tone and balance: The article is neutral in tone, especially while discussing the theories.
 * Sources and References: There are 25 references, seem to be reliable, diverse publications.
 * Organization and Writing Quality: The writing quality is mixed, but well organized.
 * Images and Media: There are no images on this page, it could benefit from the addition of one or two.
 * Talk Page Discussion: The talk page has a to-do list!
 * Overall Impressions: The article has a strong foundation but it could use more work in terms of content and structure.
