Which article are you evaluating?
Talk:Actinomycetota

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because last semester I did some research in another one of my classes on the antibiotics that actinomycetes produce and the effectiveness against different types of bacteria.

Evaluate the article
The article gives a great overview and introduction as to what Actinomycetes are, what family they belong to, as well as basic characteristics. One thing that I found very useful was the use of links to words that people may not know off the top of their head. For example if I didn't know what the word Terrestrial meant, I could click on the word itself highlighted in blue and it takes me to a basic definition, a few examples as well as a picture. One thing that I wouldn't particularly include in the intro, rather later on is the speculation that they are implying when they say "they might be more abundant in fresh waters." This would be great information under a tab called something like "habitat" or "environment", but not in the introduction. While there is a picture on the page, I feel like for the amount of information that is present there should be at least 2-3 pictures present instead of just the one at the top right of the page. Sentence structure is well put together and is simple enough for an entry level college student to understand, yet complex enough to convey the complexity of the message without oversimplifying and omitting important details for this particular organism. 29 citations seems to be about on par for an article of this length and they are very evenly distributed throughout the article which adds to the reliability of the information presented.
