Which article are you evaluating?
(Provide a link to the article here.) Feminist activism in hip hop

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I chose this article because my group chose an artist who is viewed as a feminist in hip pop, so this article provides insight on their motives in the hip pop field. it matters because this topic is overshadowed and throughout this time in history is being brought to life with new female hip pop artists. my first impression with the topic sentence and intro-section is the article is organized but not very concise. this article also comes off as argumentative, not informative.

(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.)

Lead Section- I feel the lead section did a great job at incorporating what they were going to talk about in the article, although it was not very concise, because it has some hanging sentences that do not really connect to the overall purpose of the article.

Content- the content is very good, and informative. I like that the author incorporates voices of specialists in the field of hip pop and feminism. the content is not really up to date, but the author goes back and forth with quoting earlier hip pop feminist artists and artists that are more current to my generation.

Tone- the tone is very informative, but sometimes the author switches to an argumentative tone to get their point across about how important this topic is.

Sources- sources are outdated although uses credible authors and books to support their topic, the sources is what i feel makes this article because is gives insight to the reader on how to read more about hip pop feminism.

Organization- very organized, some grammatical errors but are an easy fix. the article reads well

Images- images are not really appealing, should've incorporated pictures of the artists frequently quoted in this article.Talk Page- the talk page likes this article and says its very informative but the tone should be adjusted and the sources should be up to date. they also point out the grammatical errors I noticed. the incorporated more insight on the topics and added more sources from credible authors on the topic.

Overall Impression- i like this article, very informative but should alternate more towards a neutral tone.
