Article Evaluation
Isabelle Allende wiki page.

Relevance: Considering the article is focused on the life of Isabelle Allende and the events that occurred within it, all the information in the article is relevant as long as it affected her life in some way.

Neutrality: There doesn't seem to be a presence of claims pointing towards a particular position or opinion about Allende.

Over/under- representation: The last paragraph of the portion covering Allende's literary career ends rather abruptly, possibly mentioning her last work in 2011. If she has done any literary work in the past 7 years, it is not mentioned.

Citations: Certain assertions, such as “In 1981, while in Caracas, Allende received a phone call informing her that her 99-year-old grandfather was near death, and she sat down to write him a letter, hoping to thereby "keep him alive, at least in spirit,” do not have a citation. This assertion also has the old fable sense that makes one question the legitimacy of this origin story.

Bias: There seems to be no bias or opinions relayed about Isabelle within the article.

Recent data: Although some data is over a decade old, likely due to the age of the information itself, yet it is approved by multiple, reliable sources.

Talk page: Claims that the article follows the Biography of Living Persons policy. Overall, though, the article has been given a C-Class rating in multiple categories. This rating is assigned to articles that are “substantial, but (are) still missing important content or contain(s) much irrelevant material. The article should have some references to reliable sources, but may still have significant problems or require substantial cleanup.” Considering this grade, the article could use considerable improvement to increase its rating.

Rating: Assigned a low or high C for all projects. Included projects: WikiProject Women writers,  WikiProject Biography,  WikiProject Chile, and WikiProject California / San Francisco Bay Area. There is much room for improvement in this article according to this grade.

Difference vs. class: This wiki article is a lot more factual than a common class discussion. While class discussions are much more opinion-based, the Isabelle Allende article is mostly fact-based, excluding assertions made that were left without an attached citation.
