Which article are you evaluating?
Lina Eckenstein

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose it because I'm interested in the history of travel and Egyptology in the last 19th century. Lina Eckenstein was a medieval scholar at UCL during the turn of the century, but she traveled with the Petries and Margaret Murray to Abydos in 1902. Her article seemed incomplete.

Evaluate the article
The lead section is really short. I think with some more research, there could be more to lead into her life and work. The lead section talks about her work in the women's movement but the article doesn't talk about that at all.

The content of the article is relevant and, generally, up to date. The tone is neutral. But there is a lot missing about her travel in Egypt, not to mention her personal life.

I wonder if there are pictures (she died in 1931) or paintings of her to add. She had several works that she published but they aren't all listed or even cited when they're mentioned in the page.
