Article: Fish anatomy (from wiki articles)

Evaluating Content


 * 1) Yes the article is relevant to the article topic. The article topic was fish anatomy and the entire article talks about the anatomy of the fist by breaking up each section into categories of the fish anatomy so they can be explained with little confusion. There was nothing in the article that I found distracting. There were photos in the article but I thought that they helped to add to the article so that the reader could see what they meant. For example, in the section that was about vertebra of the fish photos were added in that section that helped to enhance the reading, or to get a better understand of what a fish vertebra looked like.
 * 2) I did not notice anything that was out of date in this article. From what I read, I did not see anything that needed to be added. I think the article talked about the anatomy of the fish very thoroughly. The article even mentioned that this was fish anatomy and not the physiology of the fish. It means that it is the parts of the fish compared to how the parts of the fish work together and interact which I think is helpful for someone who may not know the difference very well or is looking more for the physiology of the fish rather than the anatomy.
 * 3) The title is called fish anatomy and anatomy deals with the parts or structures. This article does have great information about the specific anatomy of the fish and does go into detail about what each one is.

Evaluating Tone


 * 1) Yes the article is neutral. There are no claims or biases that were apparent in the article. This was mostly the delivery of facts about the fish anatomy so overall it was a neutral tone.
 * 2) I do not think there were any parts of the article that were underrepresented. The anatomy of the fish was covered very thoroughly from the larger organs to the fins and the type of fins that fish can have.

Evaluating Sources


 * 1) I did check a few of the citations and the links did seem to work.
 * 2) The information seemed to come mostly from published works on information about fish anatomy.
 * 3) Yes this article had a vast diversity of sources and authors and their publications.

The Talk Page


 * 1) There are talks about the fish brain and how parts of that page might be missing. There is another talk about what the fins of the fish are used for (and not just the anatomy or what they are on the fish.
 * 2) The article has been rated as a C-Class. It is part of WikiProjects.
 * 3) The section is more of a discussion for how the article can be improved not just a general discussion about the article, although I have seen questions pertaining to the article in spots where people felt that information was missing or unsure of.
