Which article are you evaluating?
Acid–base extraction

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose acid-base extraction because I've performed the topic before many times as part of a work-up! Acid-base extractions are important because synthetic chemists use them on a daily basis. My preliminary impressions of the page was that it provided a good background detail, but did not go in-depth or provide any "extra" information..

Evaluate the article
Lead Section:

Lead sentence is good for introducing the topic! However some important topics (e.g. not being able to separate similar acid/bases) are not discussed later in the article.

Content:

Content is relevant and up to date. However it is very surface level, and some topics (e.g. technique) are missing detail and could benefit from added diagrams.

Tone/Balance

-Appropriate tone for scientific writing. No personal influence/swaying the topic in a certain tone.

Sources:

Some sources/citations are not correctly hyperlinked/referenced - e.g. in the opening paragraph.

Writing Quality / Organization

-Work is well organized and broken into sections.

-Sentences are short and some are a bit abrupt.

Images/Media

Only one image, and it is not particularly helpful. It is hard to see what concepts the "overview" image is trying to achieve.

Talk page

-They agree with an image being added to strengthen the overall wikipedia article.

Overall Impression:

I would argue this is a medium important, low quality article that needs help in being brought up to a "high quality" article by considering the points above.
