Evaluate the drafted changes
Is the content added relevant to the topic?

- I like how you added a new section on Perseus in popular culture. It is very important to talk about Greek mythology in our modern culture. This is because western culture and folklore were influenced and have similarities to ancient Greek mythology. There are a few things that could be added to the news section. One thing that could be done is to compare and contrast modern versions of Perseus with the ancient versions of the character. I think adding more content like that could show the viewer how the character changed for modern audiences and how impactful Perseus is on modern culture. The new section called the “Perseus Constellation” is deserving to be in this Wikipedia article. Greek myths are known for being constellations and can be important for the history of the character. The only thing I would add is to give more specific dates like when people first start seeing the Perseus Constellation.

Is all new content backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?

- All the sources have fit the criteria of sources. All of them are independent written by an expert in the field and are part of institutions that study mythology like Perseus. The biggest issue with sources is that I found that they lack citations in the test themselves. I did not find any citations in the body paragraphs of any of the sections. It is important to give citations to the references so the reader can find out where the author got his information from. The only other thing I will say about the source is to include one more source relating to the popular culture and Perseus constellation section of your article so it can have 2 reliable sources for the information.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?

- Due to adding a new section, you are inherently representing more viewpoints. For the new sections, I think there could be more added. For the Perseus in the popular culture section, I like how you talked about the Italian film about the character because it gives a more global view of the character. I think if there are other foreign films about Perseus, I think it would be great to represent them too. One form of media that I think deserves some representation in video games. Video games are an art and media form that likely has adapted myths into games too. For the Perseus constellation section, I think one aspect that was underrepresented was the stars and objects that are in the constellation to show the magnitude of the constellation in the sky.
