Which article are you evaluating?
Alpha particle

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because not only does it have something to do with physics, but I have always been fascinated by particles and alpha particles pertain to both my interests and to the class itself so I this articles choice makes alot of sense.

Evaluate the article


 * The article from the first couple paragraphs does provide a good job of providing the lead section and informed me about what alpha particles article will be about. I would say it was pretty concise, was only a short but informative paragraph that provided some basic facts about what alpha particles are exactly and was not overly detailed.
 * Overall the tone was fairly neutral and it didn't really seem like the article favored any position, moreso felt just like an informative article rather then someone's opinion. There was also a good amount of sources and they were reliable after looking them over.
 * The article was very well organized and had a high amount of sub sections throughout the page. Everything was lined up correctly and nothing seemed to be out of place. All the pictures and images were very detailed as well and matched up with the information that was provided within the text.
 * The talk page showed a good amount of discussions and possible past revisions. One of them was from the user alberteinstienspipe and they did a good job of reviewing and discussing with the original person who posted the information originally.
 * The article overall was very concise and detailed. One thing I would say is to maybe shorten some of the paragraphs and get rid of some of the over the top language. A strength would be the amount of sources present throughout the article and the discussion within the talk section which let me know that there were multiple outside sources that had reviewed and discussed with the page.
