Which article are you evaluating?
Language Documentation & Conservation

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 I have a passion for Indigenous language revitalization and one of the key components to that is language documentation. Language documentation is vital to the survival of endangered languages and if done well could mean the survival of the language. My preliminary impression of this article was that it is extremely thorough and well written, with appropriate sources provided throughout. I liked that there were many hyperlinks to further topics and more information like archiving, data management, linguistics and more.

The lead clearly states what the article is about and any sub-topics within the article that the reader could check out further if desired. The contents of the article were last updated in 2022, however the information appears to remain relevant and up to date. The article deals with Wikipedia's Equity Gaps by sharing resources for Indigenous Language Documentation and Conservation efforts. It remains neutral throughout by offering links to further information and a variety of different sites and other sources of information on the topic. All of the links I tested out worked properly. The article is a part of WikiProjects. The article does not contain images that would add to the contents and there has only been 2 editors of this article that I could find. I would say that this article could be further developed to be more in depth with it's information that is provided, however it is a good starting point for finding more information.
