(Provide a link to the article here.) Epigenesis (biology) - Wikipedia

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 it relates to plants and how they develop, this is a topic that relates to previous courses I have taken and one that I am currently in. This article matters because it is important in understanding the first steps that a plant undergoes to fully develop. My first impression of this article was that it did not have much information and the information on it didn't appear to be very in depth, and the references appeared to be possibly outdated.

The article has a lead section that is rather short and only contains the definition of the term, leaving the information that a reader may find necessary to be rather lacking. The content of this article also appears to be lacking in many areas as it does not completely relate to the topic and appears to only provide information about people that had mentioned epigenesis. The article also seems slightly out of date and most of the recent edits are from 2020 and before. There were also some errors with the references. There are no images or other forms of media attached to this article. The talk pages don't have much recent discussion; however, they do have some older conversations about mistakes that still need to be fixed. My overall impression of this article is that it really needs to have some work done to it, including getting more information and more relevant information. The article is a stub-class and low importance article that is very underdeveloped.
