Which article are you evaluating?
1989 Ethiopian coup d'état attempt

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I choose to evaluate this article because the coup attempt was against a communist regime. This is also a start class article with mid importance, meaning that there is more information that can be added to flush the article out.

Evaluate the article
The lead section is either the entire section or it does not exist, this article is not separated into subcategories rather has one section encompassing everything. The content that is there is accurate, however there is no mention of the lead up to the coup attempt or the aftermath. The article maintains a neutral point of view and tone. The sources are mainly news paper articles at the time talking about the coup, it does not have databases sources or peer reviewed articles. The article has one picture of Ethiopia on a map of Africa. There is no Talk-page discussion. My overall impression is this article could benefit greatly from additions from databases and peer-reviewed articles. The article needs subsections to further separate and expand upon different distinct ideas.
