LEAD SECTION:

- Yes, there is an introductory sentence defining water politics and what it could be summarized as.

- Yes, a brief description of the article's outline is included.

- No, all the information in the lead seems to be directly about water politics, or related to water conflicts worldwide.

- The lead is detailed, but water politics is a very complex, ongoing and changing issue.

CONTENT:

-Yes, the content of the article is extensive, detailed, and relevant.

- Yes, the content is up to date, such as with the ongoing situation with water privatization in CDMX.

-All the information has to do with summarizing water politics worldwide and describing many different examples/case studies of water politics across the world. I think all the information is relevant.

- It is very detailed, but this is a topic that necessitates attention to detail.

TONE AND BALANCE:

- The article is neutral, and while there are some instances of an opinion, such as saying that a public policy was successful or not, these statements are backed up by citations.

- I can see no heavily biased claims.

- There seems to be sufficient information relating each section included, so I would not say that there are over or underrepresented viewpoints.

- There aren't minority perspectives in this article.

SOURCES:

- I checked most of the important pieces of information, and they are backed up by credible sources of information, like journals or reports.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:

- I think this article is great, very informative, and gives the reader an impressive sense of knowledge about the concept of water politics and how it has been viewed, utilized, and impacted across history and time. The article is strong in providing as many case studies as possible, big and small, and most of the information seems to reference credible sources of information. Nothing seems biased and it is very informative in corroborating the state of water use and water systems in the world today.
