User:Lindsmach/Evaluate an Article

Which article are you evaluating?
Water polo.

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose it because water polo is a relatively underexposed sport. Many people I've talked to don't understand what the game is, or how it works. I figured the article would need some work.

Evaluate the article
Strong lead section with a clear directory of the article.

The sections are balanced, and there is good attention given to many different areas of the sport. I think there should be much more clarification on the rules. It is a very short section, and the rules of water polo are extremely long and complicated.

The tone is very neutral and balanced, and more matter-of-fact and informational than persuasive.

I found a few questionable sources that I would not say were academic or peer reviewed, but I imagine that sources for this topic are rare.

The organization is clear, but the language is full of technical jargon that would be hard for a non-player to understand. I could only envision the plays because I have run them before.

Good image and media, including photos of both men's and women's teams. Perhaps a better diversity of photos to show all age and ability levels.

Very short talk page, with only a few interactions between users. I saw a total of 3 edits that were proposed and made.
