User:Jl306/Evaluate an Article

Which article are you evaluating?
I am evaluating Jade Snow Wong.

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose to evaluate this article because Jade Snow Wong wrote a stellar piece about the Chinese Asian American experience in the era shortly following the removal of the Chinese Exclusion Act. This article was dubbed as a "start-class article," so I thought I could review this. My preliminary impression of this article is that there could be more details added into the descriptions of her works.

Evaluate the article
The content of the article seemed relevant to Jade Snow Wong's life; however, there were sections that could have more detail, especially when describing her main work, "Fifth Chinese Daughter." For example, I found this Library of Congress article that describes the impacts and legacy of her work.

The article's tone was neutral, with no heavily biased claims as the article is mainly a short biography.

In terms of citations, the links work, and the references draw from a mix of blog posts/websites to books and articles from historical societies. The sources are certainly diverse, but some sources (i.e. source 10) were just blog posts which aren't exactly as reputable as the San Francisco Chronicle or New York Times.

The article is well-written and easy to read, with no obvious grammatical errors. The sections are broken down into different parts of her life, but there could be more detail. However, there are not many pictures or supporting media, which could enhance the reader's understanding of important areas of her work.

On the Talk page, there isn't much going on, but one user who has read the book "Fifth Chinese Daughter" described the article as not including some themes that she remembered reading.
