== Article evaluation: "Violencia de género" ==


 * "Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?"

Everything is relevant, but the article spends a lot of time talking about the definition and less time on the impact and solutions,


 * "Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?"

The article has a neutral tone, but it is biased when it comes to what countries and perspectives it incorporates. It only has information on Ecuador, Mexico, Spain and Colombia. Other countries in South/Latin America are ignored or barely mentioned.


 * "Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?"

The article seems to overrepresent the US narrative about gender-related violence and does not give ample attention to the specificities of the problem in most countries.


 * "Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?"

Yes. Yes.


 * "Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?"

There's a wide variety of sources used, but the majority seem to be in English. However, they all seem to be relevant, recent, and reflect a variety of viewpoints.


 * "Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?"

A lot could be added to the page; many countries are missing and there are few examples from Spanish/Latin American history.


 * "Check out the Talk page of the article. What kinds of conversations, if any, are going on behind the scenes about how to represent this topic?"

The talk page is very active with revisions and suggestions for new sections on the page. Clearly there is a lot more information that could be added to this Wikipedia page.


 * "How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?"

I do not understand this question.


 * "How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?"

In class, we focused heavily on the impact of gender violence on each country, and the Wikipedia gives a more holistic, global perspective and overview of the issue with a few case studies and less specifics.
