Evaluate the drafted changes
(Compose a detailed peer review here, considering each of the key aspects listed above if it is relevant. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what feedback looks like.)

The existing lead is good because it gives this sort of intro of the disease without going too far into it, leaving all the explaining for the other sections while proving it would still be a good read as a lot of impactful information is presented to draw readers in. It is a relevant enough lead that does its job to make people look deeper into the disease and read the other sections for more information. Other than of course the death toll, and where it was located, the lead could dive deeper into ways it affected the future, sort of like showing other impacts other than death. This could be another interesting point for the lead to use. It would also show more topics covered later in the page in the lead.

The sources seem fine. The links work, I clicked a few, though it is kind of concerning it only brought me to some of the books on google books. Like did this person have a copy of the book on hand? This was not a link to the ebook, but I am also not sure if this link was by the group I am peer reviewing.

The content seems well written and organized. It is easy to read.

The images seem to mostly show some of the architecture of the place, so while these are on topic maybe some paintings of people during the plague like we saw with the black plague specifically from malta may enhance this page and be really cool.

From what I see in the sandbox or article draft from this group I believe that the population density idea is a good idea and the "other" section has some good ideas in terms of reformatting the page. I look forward to seeing the finished product.
