Evaluate the article
The beginning of the article is concise, addressing the persons in which the rest of the article talks about. It begins describing, in brief, the career of Ruth Ginsburg then goes into detail about her early life. The lead section also includes the titles of the following sections throughout the article. These sections include, "Early Career, U.S. Court of Appeals, Supreme Court...", amongst others. The content of these sections is relevant to the topic of the article and are also up to date as of current. This article also contains information about historically underrepresented populations such as the Native Americans, and topics such as gender discrimination, abortion laws, and voting rights. The article is rather neutral, it is descriptive of the events of her life and what she had accomplished while serving in the U.S. legal system. It also describes her life and what she had enjoyed doing when she was alive. The sources of the article are current and there is a diverse amount of authors that have contributed information to this page. The links that were checked in this article worked and were able to redirect the user to the additional page where the information was taken from.

The article is clear to read and easy to follow. There were no noticeable grammatical errors located and each section header accurately represented the information in each section. The images that were included also were representative of the information in the article. Some of the photos included younger photos of Ruth Ginsburg, her with various colleagues throughout her career, and finally photos of her death and succession. This media was properly cited and coincided with the content that was included. The talk page only includes one question, "What was her mother's name?". The answer to that question is Celia Amster. This article was viewed enough times in a week to appear in the Top 25 Report annual list, four times. This articles was also viewed enough times in a year to appear in Wikipedia's Top 50 Report annual list.

This article is highly looked upon as a source of credible information of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She had made a large impact in the United States judicial system. After her death, more people were looking for information about who she is and what her life was like. I thought that this article was well written and straight to the point. One of the only things that I would improve from this article would be the wordiness of some of the sections, try to keep it as concise as the lead section. This article is very well written and well- developed.
